Most people say that with Secret Invasion, the Skrulls has been used repeatedly in plot points and are unoriginal. I haven't read much about Skrulls besides in Runaways and Annihilation, so I'm liking it so far.Femto wrote:The first issue of Secret Invasion left me completely uninterested in the entire event.
The first issue of Final Crisis, while perhaps a little bland, has me excited for things to come.
[spoiler]The Martian Manhunter's death was bullshit though.[/spoiler]
I think they're trying to hype the powers of Libra by the death of that character. I thought it was bullshit too, but it could be misdirection though. I mean, if Barry Allen's coming back, then I'll guess we'll have to wait 10 more years for the characters that die in Final Crisis to come back to life. At this point, I don't know what the purpose of Anthro's story was (besides him linked to Metron) and its relevance, so I guess we'll have to wait until Morrison unveils the plot points.
I think Final Crisis would read well in trade, but Secret Invasion, at least for me, reads better in single issues.
