No real story in the first issue? Ok, I can understand needing to set-up the series (although the past year of build up should have been enough), but little to no story in the second? This is absurd. The couple of reveals were nice, but it was all people off of the ship that we kinda assumed were all skrulls anyway.
Rawkeye's take on the whole situation was nice. Being the only one smart enough to take to the tree line and attack from the shadows was cool. But trusting that some of the shippies are skrulls and some aren't? Whether it's revealed to be the case or not it's pretty stupid to believe any of them, especially after everything he's been through this year.
Some minor hiccups for me personally? Why are the Silver Age heroes swearing more than the modern ones? Cap saying "damn skrulls" and Jessica/Jewel saying "I'd like to smack the @#$% out of all of you" was just over the line. The bleeped out words are over used enough in our time as it is, let's not retcon the silver language.
Also, Tony's armor going off every other panel was just annoying, does he have Vista on that thing or something? Does he have to "Allow" every little program on his system and it just won't shut up other wise? (Yeah a vista joke, low, I know).
To sum it all up, the last page made the issue worth buying (poster please) but other than that it seemed to be kind of treading water.

Nice review. I didn’t pick up on the silver age foul language, but now I’m bothered by it as well. I agree that there was frustratingly little advancement of the story here. The art was spectacular though, which sort of made up for it.
Re: the swearing — these aren’t like Earth-2 counterparts or anything. These aren’t heroes from some alternate "Silver Age." And they’re not even really Silver Age, if you want to get technical.
But my point: If Hawkeye NOW swears, then Hawkeye of five years ago would also swear. So whether real or Skrull, these are all "modern" takes on the characters — the crashed ship ones are just from a couple of years ago (Marvel Time)…
Jewel is not really a silver age hero anyway.. Jessica Jones swears, thats who she is.
Good Vista joke. I agree that notifications of armor failure do not need to come every panel or two – it’s just distracting. But as daccampo notes, these heroes are far from Silver Age. They appear to be classic early ’80’s Marvel, which for us old folks was a superb era, and one with coarse language.
