Skrull Guess Who!!

So apparently Marvel is talking about skrull spoilers in some of their bigger books; NEW AVENGERS #31, NEW AVENGERS ILLUMINATI #5, MS. MARVEL #24 and CAPTAIN MARVEL #3, but they left a book out. I'm not going to say which book it is yet, but, way to black ball one of your better books Marvel. So here are the Skrulls and possible Skrulls ready to secretly invade. If you don't feel like reading the official half-ass marvel spoiler I'll give you my full list.

Why is He a Skrull?
Cobalt Man-Revealed in Captain Marvel #3

Ok, now I've considered picking up the Mar-vell series and considering my intrigue in the impending invasion I may pick it up, but considering his only lines of dialogue and action came in Civil War #1 right before Stamford was blown to hell. So this one makes no sense unless he supplied Nitro with the MGH (Mutant Growth Hormone) that enhanced his abilities. But we know that's not true as Wolverine took down the CEO of Damage Control who supplied Nitro with the "mutant juice." But now I'm just turning into some obsessive conspiracy theorist as Cobalt man was really just around to accuse Captain Marvel of being a Skrull.

We Still Don't Know Yet Skrulls..
Ms. Marvel- Revealed in Ms. Marvel # 24 & Captain Marvel-Revealed in Captain Marvel #3

Now Cobalt Man was brought in to accuse Mar-vell of being a Skrull and Ms. Marvel after she lost her powers is now reverted back to her Binary powers, so that's also questionable.

Skrulls Marvel Won't Tell You About...
The Revolutionary-Revealed in Avengers: The Initiave Annual #1

This is the first of two Skrulls revealed in the pages of Avengers: Initiative and noticeably missing from the spoilers page of marvel. You want to talk about bit skrull, this one takes the cake. This guy is apart of one of the Fifty States Initiative teams in Philadelphia, named The Liberteens. Now before I get into this goof's role, let me address this team's name in one word, corny, and most of the teens names and caricatures make them look and sound like they were created in a cheap American factory. When Marvel said that Skrulls were going to be apart of every team in America, they meant it. The Liberteens look like a cross between the Great Lakes Avengers, the X-Men, and add an ass ton of patriotism and boom!!! You got a team. The only relevance this Skrull has is who he contacts at the Avengers training base at Camp Hammond.

Crusader-Revealed in Avengers: The Initiative #9

This is my deduction and my deduction only but unless there is another Skrull hanging out around the Camp Hammond base then this is the guy who's making sure Skrulls are in place. Now the placement of these two Skrulls makes since as both seem to be apart or will be apart of initiative based teams. But not to do too much spoiling, but this Skrull's longevity is questionable and I'll leave it at that, because you should be reading Avengers.

Skrulls Who Failed Their Missions...

Elektra-Revealed in The New Avengers #31

Everyone and their momma knew that Elektra was gonna get wacked by Echo in this issue, but what threw me, and anyone else not searching for spoilers, for a loop was that the supposed Elektra reverted to a dead Skrull. Which has led to massive paranoia among the Avengers including the defections of Spider-Woman with the Skrull corpse, and Jessica Jones, and Doctor Strange just straight up leaving.

Blackbolt-Revealed in New Avengers Illuminati #5

Talk about left field, in the final issue of this book Blackbot goes all Skrully and with the help of two other skrulls, start beating the crap out of the Illuminati bunch. Now considering I had almost dropped this book an issue before, I'm glad I didn't because by the time this issue ended my jaw was dropping as the battle and eventual defeat of the Skrulls occurred. This book pretty much jump started Iron Man's silent paranoia and cause the group to disband.

Now, to wrap this segment up with a pretty little bow, if these people are Skrulls, then WHERE THE HELL ARE THE REAL HEROES/VILLIAN? Who's ruling the Inhumans and do they know that their King is missing? The Hand looked lost once they found out Elektra was a Skrull. The Marvels are still in the air of questionable Skrulls so I don't know. One thing for sure is that the secret invasion is in full effect.

Marvel wants you to play Skrull guess who. Marvel

Excelsior Bitches!!
