THIS IS IT! The Exciting, thrilling, paradigm-changing conclusion to the greatest Event in Marvel history!
And this is it? Really?
So, the big old battle rages on, but is compressed to a degree I didn't think possible. And then it's over. The Skrull fleet is wiped out but - somehow - the ship that has all the kidnapped capes is located before Thor and his Mighty Hammer takes it out. All the heroes therein (and villains) are saved unscathed, except for some ripped costumes. Reed brings the Baxter building back, but all their stuff is gone. And Jessica and Luke's baby is missing. Remember, she left her with Skrull Jarvis? Yeah, I had forgotten that too.
Oh, and Tony is fired and disgraced, S.H.I.E.L.D. disbanded, and Norman-fucking-Osborne is now in charge. Apparently in charge with a batch of villains/dark-edged heroes, to boot. Honestly, I'm not really sure who all those people are that the table on the final page because of Yu's art.
About that art. Man, it's really cool BUT it's often hard - if not impossible - to tell who the hell he's drawing. Is that Jessica Jones? Or is it Echo? Or is it...well, you get the idea. If you don't recognize the character by the costume, you may just simply never know who it is. But it's still nice to look at.
All in all, it was a decent book, about the same level as the other SI books. But it seemed rushed. A little too "We've gotta finish this in eight issues, even if you've got twelve worth of story." Bendis, the master of Decompression, didn't work that well with the constraints of compression. That said, we'll probably get all the stuff that could've been in this book in some other form: minis, one-shots, something (e.g. Secret Invasion: the Rescue) . Still, for the conclusion of BMB's four-plus years in the making Magnum Opus, it was flat.
Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to the post-SI Marvel U. A sociopath like Osborne in charge of the Avengers, Initiative, and whatever replaces S.H.I.E.L.D.? Count me in.
