The theories were out that it was this hero or that, but it turned out to be completely different. And I didn't feel robbed by the revelation. But I really liked where Marvel took Scourge in "Thunderbolts" with him being Jack Munroe. It didn't last, but his power set was cool.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088987141848715305.post-78068269202109806582008-07-11T18:54:00.000-05:002008-07-11T18:54:00.000-05:00Thanks for the good review.

I had high hopes for the series (and related tie-in with the Avengers, etc.) but have found the storytelling needlessly exhaustive (though still much better than DC's sheepish Countdown). You're right, though. Like other megaseries, Secret Invasion would have been a great way to clean up a lot of unsung plotlines and character inconsistencies over the years. I keep thinking of the Scourge subplot in Captain America from years ago; an eerily effective way to get rid of dead weight while still mxing things up a little.jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14504972431022572200noreply@blogger.com
