Wow this group will be forgotten right after the mini series if things are going the way they appear to be with them. So far not good impressions at all. Also wow Nick wasn't even willing to even call them Howling Commandos. Tells you what he thinks of them.

I'm more interested in the preview page at the bottom of the story. Maria Hill is in a whole lot of trouble!

Regardless of how much Fury has trained them, some of the Secret Warriors, including Ares' son, seem a little young for the battle on their horizon. Nonetheless, the Warriors' fearless leader has no qualms about placing them in harm's way.
Apparently, the entire Ares mini-series is being ignored.

"the original Ghost Rider's grandson, J.T"
Umm.. What? Do they mean the Phantom Rider? The Western hero? Whose grandson would be like 90 years old now? And then why does he have flaming chains?
Or do they mean Johnny Blaze... and umm.. how would Johnny have a grandson... his kids are still kids.
I'm hoping that Agent Brand ends up on the ship with Reed and springs him somehow.

drwho here already asked on the bendis board regarding Ares's child and Bendis indeed said that of course he read the mini since it was written by one of his best friends. Adding finally the usual "wait and see".
So i would say he is well aware of that mini, now how he addresses the gap (if he does or not) is another issue.

I always love your positivity. Such a breath of fresh air.

Man do I hate Brevoort, cocky as can be, and not very good at his job.
Nice preview to # 4 though. Hill looks to be up a creek.

where is your elektra avatar from? and which artist drew it?
also, this stuff just reminds me of how slowly secret invasion is moving. a frickin' snail's pace.
should have waited for the trade....

He did call them commadoes remeber?
And of course we haven't gotten an impression yet because we haven't learned much about them yet.

Noooooo, you guys already killed Tag and god knows where Cecilia Reyes is.
Stop killing Puerto Rican heroes.

Probably her nickname. Her powers actually seem kind of cool, super-fast, but then able to slingshot herself back to the point where she started. I'd say she survives, but not so much Druid's kid.
And why would they be called Howling Commandos? These guys aren't soldiers.

Definitely a "Oh sh*t!" moment, Nick told her about that too.

Yeah that should really be cleared up.

They aren't yet but it's a cool nod to the past commandos.

I'm pretty sure this had to do with marketing the team to the SI crossover going on right now.
Technically, neither were the Howlers, they were Army Rangers.
The USArmy Rangers are considered the USArmy's commandos.

unimpressed. he's not very good at creating new characters, imo. plus, his version of Alexander kind of blows so far.

I agree, the glaring continuity problems with these kids aside (JT the grandson of the powerless Phantom Rider, Alex suddenly becoming Phobos, wtf?) I just haven't seen anything especially interesting about these characters that can make them last past this crossover.

maybe they won't last. wouldn't be the first suicide mission Fury has orchestrated.

Yeah, I spotted that too...she's definitely in a bad place right there.
I'm quite liking Fury's "catapillars", some of them are kind of lame but that's also part of their appeal I feel. I hope there's gonna be a spin-off mini-series about them or even a "Secret Invasion" mini-series focusing in on them and their exploits a bit more.

The commando's were from the commonwealth we have never had them in the US.

The USArmy Rangers are considered the USArmy's commandos.
If you tell a Ranger that make sure It's on Youtube, Neither of my brothers would be amused in the least:biggrin: Rangers don't like to be compared to Marines.
The SEALs are closer and that would be even worse to mention.

Nah Sharon Ventura has too much self respect for that.
Maybe the Griffin raped a woman?
Or maybe Yo-Yo's a clone, except the facility that created her damaged the Y chromosome so they instead made another X instead.

continuity problem, Agent Brand managed to get inside a skrull ship in "who do you trust?" but now in SI 4 she's back outside?? kind of makes the whole story she told in "who do you trust" irrelevant if they are just going to put her back outside because not everyone will have read the issue.....

Not necessarily. Maybe this scene is set before that.
