Now I've seen alot of animosity towards the DDP run, however, overall, I though they did a great job. That's not to say there weren't any misses, but even the original comic wasn't consistently great, of course if you read some posts, the original could do no wrong. So here's looking forward to IDW's run, and lets hope that they continue to maintain GI Joe's good name. __________________ SILENT DUSTY "...but for a soldier his duty is plain.

Actually, considering how much I've despised a lot of what Marvel has done since Quesada took over, I'm surprisingly enjoying Secret Invasion... I keep hoping they're going to use it as a way to backpedal away from some of the stupid things they've done lately.

"Evil Tony Stark? He was a Skrull all along!"

"Cat Beast? Skrull who didn't do his 'what does this guy look like' homework!"

"The Ant Man who got blown up on the Avengers' front lawn? Tiny Skrull."

"That Spider-Man who chose to sacrifice his marriage in order to let his frail aunt (who will probably die tomorrow) live? One of the stupidest Skrulls I've ever met!"

I'd thrown the assassinated Cap in there, but it looks like that may be resolved in his own title.

Of course, I realize most (or all) of this is pretty much not going to happen, but the story still seems pretty good so far.

And I'll never stop praying for the second one to come true. I hate, hate, HATE Cat Beast with a passion. He's a blue monkey or a man, and that's it!!!!
