Marvel’s ‘Secret Invasion’ Trailer Reveals Intergalactic Spy Games and New Release Date
The latest Secret Invasion trailer reveals a war for Earth bubbling just under the surface.
Secret Invasion was a cross-over storyline in the comics led by Brian Michael Bendis. It takes place after the Skrull-Kree War and during a time when the Skrull Empire is at significant risk. They decide to jump ship and survive by invading Earth, imitating people from across the globe. It involved a ton of Marvel heroes and villains, and actual, real people. Part of the fun of the series was finding out who had been swapped out.

New Secret Invasion Trailer
It’s been a while since we’ve seen Nick Fury. He went on a vacation in space after the blip, asking Talos to take his place for a time. The dude deserves a break from it all, even if the beach is simulated. He returns to an intelligence community turned inside out by shapeshifters. Thirty years ago, Fury recruited the Skrulls into his spy network and promised to find a home for them in return. The plan isn’t going well. Resistance is growing in the population. These revolutionaries no longer want to live in human disguises; they want to make the Earth a Skrull-controlled planet.
Fury’s world has been built on trust and relationships. That has been shattered.
