How Will Secret Invasion End? WINNERS ANNOUNCED!

Media Outlet Comic Book Forum

So last year around this time we had a pool where everyone guessed who would be a outed as a Skrull in the Marvel Universe. Since no one, myself included can think of a better idea and hey this pool was actually successful then what the heck, how about another go at it? :looney:

The prizes so far are Pained Auron’s two comics that have been signed by Judd (The Dudd) Winnick himself, like always a prize no one really wants. At least I hope not… Sorry Real World fans… :sweat:

Grog also has a prize he’s willing too offer up too. He PMed me about it quite some time ago, I gotta check to see if I still have the PM.

(I am going to bug both of them once again for pictures of them and then I’ll re-edit this post…)

So basically your guess has to be the closest to the events that occur at the end of Secret Invasion. Please be specific as possible. “The good guys win!” “The bad guys win!” “Nothing will be the same ever again!” are bad examples. On the other hand, an answer that goes, “The Skrulls will win and they will visit my mother’s kitchen!” is perfectly acceptable! Not that you’ll win of course. :rofl:

The last bomb that Marvel had dropped was about a Dark Avengers line. They are off the table because at this point everyone knows about them. Oh sure, they might be the ones to beat up the Skrulls but at this point picking them out is too easy. Choose another event that happens in the last issue please! :sweat:

In case no one guesses right or is even remotely close, we’ll try to come up with something. If there are ties and a couple of people are close, there’s three prizes on the table and we can work something out. If everyone is wrong then maybe we can vote for the funniest answer or something? Eh I dunno, gonna have to play this by ear. :looney:

There are a few people out there with inside information. I know as of this typing the identity of “HE,” you know, the guy who ‘loves you’ has already slipped, but I myself have avoided spoilers so I haven’t read of it. If you’re answer is “too perfect” well it’s going to raise an eyebrow and you’ll in effect be ruining the story for everybody. Remember, these are crappy comics that NOBODY wants. So please, play fair or just jot down something silly. :wonder:

The deadline is September 30th so you have the rest of the month.

I guess that’s it for rules! In the next post I’ll write down all of the ideas we’ve had so far! :tup:

SCREW POO TWO!

Kusanagi02: I have Tony Stark dying by the end of the series. The real Spider-Woman somehow coming out the woodworks and Nick Fury back as the Director of SHIELD.

Wellman: I actually got my money on Ms. Marvel being the Director of Shield, Fury is probably going to be the grumpy old man sending kids to collect on grocery bills in the Secret Warriors ongoing.

**maxx: ** i predict spider-man will have an emo moment. give me my prize now.

**TheDarkPhoenix: ** Hulking rising to power; Darwin playing a key role in defeating the skrulls; Nick fury taking over shield again. One of the X-men being a skrull (storm\cyke)

darksoul173: Doc Strange will stop gaying and will do some Abra skruldabra and will be a key in the victory for Earth; real spider woman comes and kills skrull queen

Sano: Shuma-Gorath is behind the entire thing! When the Avengers were hiding out in that fake Starbucks Doctor Strange had everyone use the name “Shuma-Gorath” as a password to get in! You see unlike Joe Quesada, Bendis actually knows who Shuma-Gorath is! (Yeah for real, Joe Quesada doesn’t know who Shuma-Gorath is, I asked him at the NY Comic Con in February). Bendis has been building this up since he was five years old, really! Come’on man, Skrulls are green, Shuma-Gorath is green and of course “He loves you!” He wants to have everyone offered up to him as sacrifices! Everyone is wrong I tell you! :stuck_out_tongue:

Pained Auron: hawkeye (clint barton) will no longer be ronin/hawkeye

m121akuma: Maria Hill retakes her position as head of SHIELD. Skrull Captain Marvel will die. Luke Cage will also die, so nobody can touch Bendis’s favorite character. Tony will kill Skrull Queen Jessica. Real Jessica will appear, having been replaced by an LMD when she was captured by the Skrulls.

Sanchez: Real Black Bolt comes back and yells at everything so loud that every depowered mutant gets their powers back. They all rally together and fight off the Skrulls that werent peaced out by the scream. For his efforts, the United States Government makes Black Bolt Speaker of the House. And Luke Cage gets his tiara back.

blakkphire22: galactus is a skrull :3 my money is that Mary Jane’s a skrull.

Adam Warlock: Something will change. Skrulls will be an endangered species making the entire skrull kill crew outlaws all over again!

Zephyranthes: Wolverine will say the word “bub” at least once in Secret Invasion #8.

**MixBlender: **Frank castle will shoot all the skrulls up and the marvel universe will thank him. Then Frank Castle will kill the marvel universe again.

**akumatrunigga:**NORMAN OSBORN DIRECTOR OF SHIELD or 3D-Man will place the final blow in the last panel of SI # 8

RockBogart: I predict the Initiative/Registration will be abolished and revealed to be a Skrull plot. Black Panther and Storm will bring TEH ARPE; Return of The Hulk; And Lord help the Skrulls when Black Bolt gets free. Thor,Fury, Capt America, or IM will utter the phrase “Where is your God now?”

chopperbyrne: The real green Hulk will come back and go Planet/World War Hulk on the Skrulls asses. He will then take over the Skrull Empire. Jarvis Skrull will get his ass kicked by Aunt May.

Carpet Lint: Here’s my prediction: we will be treated with a vintage Marvel non-ending, one of those that tries too hard to push the fact that “NOTHING WILL EVER BE THE SAME AGAIN!” or the “WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE!?!” angle, and it will leave us all very unsatisfied and disappointed.

It will include Reed Richards reversing their shapeshifting abilities with one of those generic Star Trek type “I’ll reverse the polarity on the quantum synchornizionitizer and cross the feedback into the spectrum field emitter!” solutions, which will reveal/weaken all the invading Skrulls on Earth, leading to a comic book montage of fifteen consecutive splash pages of guys beating up Skrulls in various locales (like in the last issue, “Wakanda, New York, Israel, Latveria, Asgard, etc.”). Yawn!

Iron Man will survive and have a speech at the end, praising the value of the human spirit and the strength of hope or some bullshit, and the word balloons will cumulatively take up at least 1.25 pages.

Logically relevant and powerful superheroes like Dr. Strange, Hulk, Thor, or Silver Surfer - you know, the ones with enough power to actually make a difference - will remain in obscurity throughout this story in favour of focusing on more “relatable” characters like Clint Barton and Luke Cage.

The Sentry will still remain as the absolutely most fucking useless and uninteresting comic book character ever created.

The ending will involve a scene where the Skrulls are eventually defeated, but appeal for some sort of compromise or mercy, and the good guys pause to consider it…until Nick Fury walks in and goes “FUCK 'EM” and is reinstated as the head of SHIELD.

Bowling Pin: Oooh, oooh! Can I play too?
The Hood’s villain syndicate will take advantage of the post-Secret Invasion world.
Marvel Boy saves the fucking day.
S.H.I.E.L.D. will be dismantled.
Public confidence in all heroes will finally be shattered. Registered or not, all heroes are suspect.
Nick Fury will give up the ghost.
Captain Britain will fondly be remembered as the best Secret Invasion tie-in, followed closely by Incredible Hercules.

BONUS: SKRULL NAMES ONCE AGAIN!

Hey checked my old PM from Grog and the comic he told me he wanted to offer up is Deadpool #13. Well it’s a good prize and not a bad one but it can still work if he wants to give it away. :smile:

Maria Hill retakes her position as head of SHIELD. Skrull Captain Marvel will die. Luke Cage will also die, so nobody can touch Bendis’s favorite character. Tony will kill Skrull Queen Jessica. Real Jessica will appear, having been replaced by an LMD when she was captured by the Skrulls.

Real Black Bolt comes back and yells at everything so loud that every depowered mutant gets their powers back. They all rally together and fight off the Skrulls that werent peaced out by the scream.

For his efforts, the United States Government makes Black Bolt Speaker of the House.

And Luke Cage gets his tiara back.
