It’s been a long road gettin’ here. 28 posts in this event. Not as long as the Civil War block, but close. Let’s see how it all shakes out. These covers have…

Secret Invasion 7
Why not a Spider-Skrull vs. Skrullverine cover, I guess? Not exactly story-driven. This one opens on another 2-page splash, technically the 3rd in a row coming from last issue, as the battle…
Mighty Avengers 18
