New Avengers #44 Review
Secret Invasion continues to move forward by going backward. And yet it works so well. This issue takes us back to the Skrull Empire, shortly after the events of Illuminati. The story covers the Skrulls’ attempts to make themselves indectable to magic, technology, and mind reading. This issue answers the question of how the Skrulls were able to fool everyone. Sort of. We don’t know what they did exactly, but we know how they figured it out.
Well-written, good artwork - I’ve only been reading Mighty Avengers since the start of Secret Invasion, but I have been consistently impressed by this book. Secret Invasion isn’t really an 8 part story, nor do you need to read every tie-in title that Marvel shoves at you to properly enjoy it. In reality, this is a story in 24 parts split between SI, MA, and New Avengers.
