Mighty Avengers #17

I enjoyed the story as well, even though it seemed pretty slow for the first half. The art did make me cringe a bit at the beginning, but got better as it went on. Because I have faith in Pham, I would have given it a 3 for benefit of the doubt.

i have really been enjoying the new avengers/mighty avengers si issues, and this is another solid issue filling in the invasion back story.  the only problem i am beginning to have with them is that given the main series is moving a bit slowly, and all of these main tie ins are taking place prior to the main book i am getting a little tired of waiting for things to move forward - hopefully soon.

I know the skrulls had the same name but I thought the Skrull Pym Tratior was killed and replaced by a new skrull. Dugan says at one point something about there having been a couple of Pyms before this one. I would be interested in hearing what other people thought and how they interpert Dugan's comment.

@All4ninjas - I am not sure. I think that it would be rather ridiculous for Skrulls to have exactly the same name, but perhaps that is my Earth (non-George Forman) bias. I interpreted things to mean that this Skrull has a special ability to play Pym, but that he requires frequent re-education.

Uhhh, maybe I misread this, but I'm pretty sure Criti Noll was fried in this issue and replaced with another Pym agent. Didn't they even say that he wasn't the first. So, this begs the question, are the Skrull-Pyms breaking down because Pym's personality is so strong and heroic, or so flawed and self-defeating?
