Maria Hill has a Skrull in custody, but she knows there's bound to be more...good thing she's got a foolproof Skrull detector ready to go.

But Why Tho? - William Tucker
Dec 09, 2022Secret Invasion #2 is a fantastic mix of aliens and espionage. This is Secret Invasion from a different angle, and so far, it is intense and full of intrigue. A creative team full of superstars is crafting a story that perfectly sets the tone for the live-action series whilst being superb on its own. Its relationship with mainstream comics can be sketchy but license sometimes has to be taken to give a standalone book the materials it needs to excel. Read Full Review

Dec 07, 2022Secret Invasion #2 does a better job of slowly raising the stakes. Not only does it shed light on who has been compromised in the latest invasion of the Skrulls, but it also helps explain why this new conflict needs to be feared rather than taken lightly. Read Full Review

Dec 08, 2022Secret Invasion #2 is a tense, thrilling, paranoid-filled issue with great art, great action, and great drama. However, the meat of the issue is effectively one big scene that heavily borrows from John Carpenter'sThe Thing(1982) and doesn't move the plot forward more than an inch. Read Full Review

The storytelling continues to be smooth and refined as the plot marches forward. A few more espionage developments succeed in hooking my interest; I like a cat-and-mouse game when both cat and mouse make smart moves.

Of course, we've seen all of this in John Carpenter's the Thing. The testing of the blood of the possible shapeshifter. The reveal at the end is very strange. I don't know where they are going with this and the Skrull's plans are still a mystery. How do they plan on taking over the world? And they still don't kill the people they shapeshift into. Didn't they learn from the first time? This is an above-average book, but I'm not seeing a need for it. At this point, it's just a rehash.
