It's the FINALLY-SOMETHING-HAPPENED! issue.
Don't get me wrong; I loved the first issue of Secret Invasion. I was so thrilled after the first read-through, that I went back and reread it multiple times. Issues 2-4 however, could have been much better. And the Mighty Avengers and New Avengers crossovers? It felt like they were coming out every week, and my wallet can only shell-out so much.
There's the old saying "Never get between a bear mother and her cub", and Reed Richards proves that in this issue when the safety of his family is at risk. Thanks to the help from Agent Brand of S.W.O.R.D., Mr. Fantastic is freed and pissed-off. Luckily, he also has figured out the way to identify friend and foe with that brilliant mind of his, and a couple of nuts and bolts.
Thanks to this achievement, we can finally get out of the Savage Lands. Richards shines the light on who's who, and it turns out the ship that crash-landed on the island was full of Skrulls. We all knew it, but it was finally a relief to get it out of the way with this issue and focus on the larger invasion at hand; the world.
With Maria Hill taking Nick Fury's advice, and with Fury with both Howling Commandos plus the Young Avengers (don't try to make sense of the continuity in the Runaways / Young Avengers Secret Invasion Crossover), it looks like the good guys are finally fighting back, and looking to kick some Skrull ass!
Bendis and Yu make the excellent team, and continue making this Marvel event extremely enjoyable for readers both old and new.
