Well, who read it? Thoughts?

The 1970s heroes are the big swerves, but the legit ones so far are Hogan and Pym.

I just have to say that that is definatly one sneaky way to bring back Jean Grey and Steve Rogers and well any other dead hero.

Ed's already sowing the seeds for Steve's return in his own title

Yeah.. I know... Steve from the past is gonna show up (as well as younger Bucky, the original human torch, and a younger Namor). Time travel, gotta love it.

I have a feeling Zarius is referring to the fact that...

Spoiler:

Sharon discovered Cap's body in a sort of stasis pod at the end of the last issue of Cap...

All that said, the Jarvis Skrull got a squeal out of me. I can't wait to see who else is revealed. I'm pretty sure that the classic era heroes are just red herrings. Not even Bendis would have the power to pull a retcon over Joe Q's retcon of the century (making the current Spidey a Skrull). Tony (the current one) isn't, Civil War was a huge turning point and developmental boost for the character, so to say it was all because of a Skrull would pretty much make his very pivotal role in Civil War completely redundant.
I'm liking that the Thunderbolts are a target, can't wait to see Venom take on some Skrulls, or Norman for that matter.
I think most people reading Avengers Initiative and the other Avengers title probably weren't surprised by what happened with Hank Pym.

Yeah... Jarvis being a Skrull came out of nowhere...He's one of my fave characters and I liked that he was a potential love interest for Aunt May. I just don't get the whole "He loves you!" thing....

It's implied that the real Duggan is being kept alive because Nick Fury "loves him" as a friend and a brother, and that Fury may be held by The Skrulls. Keeping Duggan alive to torture in front of Fury would help the Skrulls possibly aqquire information
