    And when this is over (after one more torturous month), we finally get our Secret Invasion cross-over, by yet another creative team (but at least it's Christos Gage doing the scripting).

    In the end, things are pretty blah, but it's not the end of the world. Next issue is bound to be better simply by virtue of it having a better balance between space used for the good and bad storylines. Also, at worst, this is a fill-in arc.
