Still, really plan on reading Runaways, ASAP, and just learning more and more about the YA. The previously page actually was quite informative. \:\)

Not quite sure exactly everything that went on this issue but the developments seemed intriguing and numerous with SI details/tidbits:

  • more skrull real names seem to be dropped. Hopefully this practice is maintained, if the character is not generic as it's RARE to see them drawn differently. to tell skrulls apart, in their natural form.
  • odd to see Chrell have facial scars given his ability; kind of interested to find out why/how
  • curious when Tarnax VII was first seen in an MU comic; circa Avengers 259?
  • Klara? The newest time trapped character in the MU? Noted.
  • wonder if Molly is younger than Franklin.
  • can't recall my review OTTOMH where commenting that response time of the NYC heroes (not in Savage Land) was lacking. Good to see the Runaways responded immediately after being one block away.
  • Xavin wants to rule the world... cute moment.
  • "It's raining Xavins?!"... Hallelujah! ;-\) Another cute moment.
  • something went on with Xavin's eyes when the Invasion started. Wonder if related to Jaz in the ENJOYABLE She-Hulk #30 - click for more SPOILERS: http://www.u-file.net/f-rqn4613
  • this artist interpretation of the YA has them seem even younger than m'familiar with. And running around with their weapons while in there secret identities?
  • a lot more skrulls hate Hulkling that previously expected.
  • remind me Nico's relationship to Ultron status.
  • pink punisher girl apparently has to have spells prepared as opposed to Wanda?
  • Xaving was taking them to 'THE LEAPFROG'?? For altruistic motives it seems.
  • seems Xavin is smarter than Hulkling, eh?
  • Xavin speaks of THEIR GODS inferring only the Religious Extremist Skrulls worship them at all.
  • that's a GOOD battlecry. \:\)
  • there seems to be a conscious dynamic to when and what is said in green word balloons and in skrull tongue.
  • skrulls have difficulty identifying their own kind (under circumstances?) which gives hope for Mockingbird being alive.
  • name 'em:
  • not sure where that green ship they took is from...
  • is Dorrek, Hulking's first name or last or title name?
  • unclear who the invisible skrull that saved Hulkling is.

    Pretty exciting Part 1 for a trilogy.
    Attached is my banner submission, complete with ;-\) Wiccan comeback...
