Spoiler free review... 4
First off, Yu's artwork is really great in this. He can be considered an acquired taste, but his style is geared more towards the mainstream comic audience, at least for the first issue. Bendis is Bendis in here, you love him or hate him.As for the issue itself, a few Skrull reveals in this issue, both of them decently shocking. Quite a few references to earlier New Avengers issue, mainly the savage land run. There's so I'd like to say about this issue, but any talk will ruin it for the people w...

Wow. . . What's next?! 0
All I can say after reading the first issue is "WHAT NEXT?!!!" There is going to be a ton that has to be explained within only 7 more issues. I can't wait to see how they do it!I am not one for spoilers, so I am going to be blunt. . . I read the first couple of panels and I was already going "Wha... really? that blows my mind!" After the civil war, it is pretty cool to see heroes united again, and to think that they are just going to tear each other apart all over again because no one trusts ...

Who can it be now? 1
The teasers have led up to this.. And this book does wet your taste buds for the big story. I always love a story that has me looking back in past issues to see how it will all tie in, or run on the Internet message boards to see what others are saying.This book gives you just enough to want more. The art and story art done very very cleanly and...... "spoiler" .... the shot where the Baxter building gets sucked into the negative zone just rocked and left me thinking "NOOOO WAY" It leaves now a ...

Loud Idiots Review of Secret Invasion #1 0
Forty-five years ago, the Skrull debuted as one of the most prominent extra-terrestrial races in the Marvel Universe. After years of half-assed, crackpot schemes to take over the earth (Including one that resulted in an entire planet of skrulls who adopted the personae of Prohibition era gangsters, I kid you not), the shape-changing Skrull have finally gotten their act together and launched a full scale infiltration of human society. Now anyone could be a Skrull, and the question Earth's heroes,...

The Hook 0
Storylines like these end up showing what I both love and hate about comic books. On the one hand it is a bold move to have who was revealed to be Skrulls, be Skrulls. It also gives us an idea, that the "real" heroes, may actually be dead. If only that were true, and that Marvel would have balls enough to give us a story that would really change the universe that much. However, I know this isn't true, so it will be a cool read where we will find out that anyone can be a Skrull , because ultimat...

Bendis Rocks!!!!! 0
Why, you ask? Brian Micheal Bendis has been a great hit into the Marvel Universe. He's changed this world from House of M to now the Secret Invasion. This story is so awesome and jaw dropping. I loved that here in this one issue shows a little bit from every tie-in that will come to be. And the cliffhanger, Oh My God! (Poor Reed). Now a new question arrises: These people that are geting out of the Skrull spaceship the real thing? The only problem I have is Yu's art. Not a very big fan of it but ...

Accusations made in this... 0
Within the first 2 pages of Secret Invasion #1 i can see that (write to me to find out) is a skrull and i can justify my reasoning for this, The writing combined with the artwork gives it away in one frame and it would explain irrational and uncharacteristic behaviour in a prvious story arc.Other than this i think Bendis' writing is excellent. I think that this "subtle as a brick" approach to this issue compensates for the apparent clues about the Invasion that lie in previous issues of other ti...

Bloodwolf Vs. Secret Invasion Part 1: A Half-Way Decent Beginning 0
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Secret Invasion, in my mind, one of the biggest disappointments in the history of Marvel Comics. First and foremost, a little background. At this point, it has become increasingly clear that Earth has been secretly invaded by a shape shifting race of aliens known as the Skrulls. As part of their nefarious plot, the Skrulls have each taken the place of several super-heroes and well known figures in the Marvel Universe, including Elektra, Blackbolt, and several oth...
