    Yep. This one is more low key. There aren’t as many Skrulls and only a handful of people know about it.

Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark

    It was the biggest flaw in the original Secret Invasion, and seemingly hasn't changed. I agree with the Skrull lady. But that statement was always true, nothing has changed.

    The ship to elsewhere was the Illuminate's idea, not SHIELD's. And it can be said that it was just an elaborate form of the Spider-Man / Green Goblin scenario. You don't kill the villain, the villain escapes and starts a rampage. Maria Hill should have told Stark at the end of world war hulk "Told you so!"

    This is where real world logic and comicbook logic clash and frankly given the medium, the latter will always win.

    Hill makes good point but the reality is Publisher's need to sell and won't/can't kill off characters. Especially those that have existed for decades. It just won't be done.

    Re: Hulk - the plan was sound. Even landing on Sakaar was "fine". But ultimately it comes down to the need for stories to continue and sales to be made. So... c'est la vie.

    It was a damn good plan. Tony also had a back up plan called Project Achilles that involved nanites that would take the Hulks powers from him. That didn’t work because Hardball from The Initiative worked for Hydra and stole a good amount of it. So Tony had back up plans.

    These last two issues were bangers! Things have happened that some characters might not be able to walk away from in issue 4. **** has hit the fan with only one issue left. It all comes down to Hill, Stark and Fury and which character will have their way and force their will onto the Skrull situation. Damn good mini series! People are really missing out that aren’t picking this up!

    Maria Hill's opinion about superheroes who do not kill
    "Spider-man shouldn't hand crooks over to the authorities. he should just be able to kill whoever he wants to," and this is coming from the person that fought for superheroes to be held accountable.

    And the person that thought it was okay to shoot Captain America because he said he didn't want to do something that wasn't even a law yet.

    It's like every time Maria Hill appears she says the stupidest thing possible.

    Still, all the people who told him he'd be back and angry...they were right.
