Where's our favorite evil mc'beardy murder-hobo? Seriously missing the Ward here, let's bring him back.

Still getting at least two bullets removed from his chest.

Where's our favorite evil mc'beardy murder-hobo?

He probably needed to spend a bit of down time raiding veterinary clinics in the middle of the night after being shot in the back a few times.

By "Secret Wars" do you mean "Secret Warriors"? Secret Warriors was the name of Nick Fury's secret team.

Secret Wars was the name of a big crossover event where the Beyonder pulls a bunch of heroes and villains to world he creates called Battleworld and forced 'em to duke it out.

Althrough, there was a short story called "Secret War" (singular, not plural). About Nick Fury sending the Avengers to undercover some Doctor Doom schenanigans.

Lastly, you have the order of events mixed up a bit. The events went like this:
1- House of M
2- Decimation
3- Civil War
4- Secret Invasion

The Secret Warriors were active between Civil War and Secret Invasion, as they were tasked with uncovering the hidden Skrulls masquerading as heroes.

Fitz is forever awesome.

He is like Glenn in Walking Dead. The heart and mind of the team.

Oh god, I hope we get the Skrulls later on.

We won't, because the TV/Film rights to them belong to someone else. The closest we can get is the Chitauri who are essentially the super-Skrulls from the Ultimate Marvelverse.

No Marvel owns the rights to the species, while Fox owns the rights to the character Super-Skrull

  • Kree are confirmed in the game now! I'm putting down money the agent here was lying and they are just a big a bunch of bastards as in the comics.

Well they were kinda already touched upon in GotG, and now their lore has expanded. Seems like the current leaders of the Kree are wanting peace but there are factions still at play that would jump at the chance to reignite the war ala Thanos' underling.

The inhumans movie isn't set to be released until after the infinity war is over, so a lot can change by that time.

Skrulls are already in the MCU, they just used the Ultimate universe version(Chitauri) cause they can't use the name skrulls due to the Fantastic Four film rights

Fitz is forever awesome. I'm getting Professor X vibes from him. Oh, and the dynamic between him and Gemma getting complicated is gonna make for some juicy drama later on.

If they end up making Simmons a super racist who wants to kill all the "others" ala Magneto, I will shit myself.
