The Skrull’s entry into the MCU withCaptain Marvelwas met with a lot of excitement, given that it opened the doors for one of Marvel’s greatest stories. However, after Thanos, the franchise decided to pivot into the multiverse, placing Kang as its main antagonist.
Secret Invasionwould have a place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but in the form of a streaming show, focused on Nick Fury and something called The Harvest. However, this show also revealed some things that made a lot of character moments in the past completely meaningless in retrospect.
The Skrulls were a part of the Harvest, but also of the battle with Thanos
It was revealed inSecret Invasionin Rhodey was among the heroes who were replaced by Skrulls. While it is yet to be revealed how far back the switch goes, fans know that Rhodey has been a Skrull since at leastAvengers: Endgame, which makes his last goodbye to Tony completely meaningless. This, however, is lost on a few fans who are struggling to figure out what role did the Skrulls play at all in the fight with Thanos.
And then Secret Invasion ruined this scene foreverhttps://t.co/HSPImo4HZ4
Fury sent the Skrulls AFTER the battle to harvest the DNA of Avengers who fought at the battle. Keyword: harvest. Comes after, not before.Is this some sort of engagement farming because it’syourtimetoshine or what?
When was the harvest battle?
I’m not a 100% sure because I blocked that show from my memory but I think they said/showed that the skrulls kidnapped roddey from the hospital after his fall in Civil War. Has nothing to do with the other skrulls collecting the dna after endgame.
That’s the real Rhodey, not a skrull
With the abysmal reviews thatSecret Invasionended up getting, there seems to be a slew of issues with how fans remember the show. There were so many moving parts inSecret Invasion, with the super Skrulls and the harvest, peopleare not even sure what the show was trying to sayin the first place. Further, it was a huge waste of a perfectly good Saga for a streaming show, that most fans decided to skip anyway.
Secret Invasionstill has the potential to be the next big saga of the MCU
Secret Invasion’s gimmick might have been taken up by the show focusing on Nick Fury, but comeAvengers: Secret Wars. the studio has an opportunity to make right some wrongs with a soft reboot of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.Secret Invasionhas the makings of a great overarching plot, similar to Infinity Saga. It will be able to provide each entry into the MCU with a lot of intrigue, and also tie in the various factions of the MCU together.
