Comics shipping 4/02/08
The Skrull invasion kicks off in earnest with “Secret Invasion” No. 1, and response to this will give us a decent bellweather for the comic tides of the coming months. The really excellent “Batman vs. Grendel” by Matt Wagner comes back into print, and the “Legion” storyline in “Action Comics” concludes.
