the Mighty Avengers #19 - Marvel

This was an interesting issue. Really, the whole thing was about Mar-vell. Or should I say . . Khn'nr. That's his real name. His Skrull name. It turns out that Captain Marvel is actually a sleeper agent . . a Skrull warrior. But, he's been a sleeper agent for so long that in his mind he's having a hard time figuring out who he actually is. Talk about split personalities. Anyways, this whole issue is about his inner conflict. He even takes on several other Skrull warriors and flies out into the Earth's orbit to take out a couple of their ships. All the while, his inner dialogue is like that of the girl in the Exorcist. Meanwhile, back at the Slab, there's a jail-break. One of the people that breaks out is Noh-Varr. A true Kree warrior. He's seen on the news about Mar-vell's return and has convinced himself that he's going to have to fight him. However, when he finds him, it's after he attacks the Skrull ships. He's been shot down and has fallen all the way through the orbit back to the Earth. Noh-Varr finds him after he lands, beaten and burned and realizes that he's actually a Skrull. What's he going to do now? Again, with this Secret Invasion thing, I have a ton of questions. Not so much about the story-line, but about this book. Doesn't Mar-vell have his own book out now? And wasn't there this big build up and everything about his return? So . . all of that and now we find out that he's actually a Skrull sleeper agent? But my real question is . . . if Mar-Vell's got his own book . . . why wasn't this story done there? There's not a mention or a sighting of a single Avenger in this book. Why? Because of this stupid story-line? I don't accept that as an acceptable answer. I'm really starting to become more than a little frustrated with Brian Bendis. As he appears to be the architect of this whole debacle . . it would seem that these creative decisions fall on him. I feel like I wasted $3 here. By the way Khoi Pham does the interior art. But the best thing about this whole issue was Marko Djurdjevic's cover. That's the best I can do. Sorry!
