- must be able to speak Skrull.
- must have no fear; nerves of steel preferable
- willing to do what it takes as far as bargaining is concerned
- when all fails, must consider suicide bombing option
hey, what else can you do eh?
i learned this from Uncanny X-Men #376:
ohh how cute! wait ... they were already infiltrating us then ... so what's this spin about Bendis setting up the whole thing?
ehh? ehhh? they've been doing since the '60s! but i guess they needed years and years of experience to figure it out. wait, shouldn't House of M pulled the pants off their operation somehow? damn you, Wanda, you're useless!
well, actually, the Skrulls in The Twelve storyline were merely hatchet men of Apocalypse, and one of them did pose as Wolverine, and then Cyclops became the new Apocalypse and ... ahhh, dammit, just go read the story yourself!
okay, from all accounts on her moral compass and stable behavior, Kitty should be the first option for negotiations (yes, even before the next one on this short list). however, the last time we saw Kitty ...
... she was saving the world (again) by phasing a gigantic bullet (a missile without explosives) she was riding on, through the planet. only the Watcher knows where she is at this time. Colossus is in need of some temporal relief, but the Emperor's Club website seems to be down.
next up would be Agent Abby Brand, a green-haired know-it-all, who may or may not be Hank McCoy's next girlfriend.
but then again, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agency she leads (the Sentient World Observation and Response Department - thanks a lot, Mr. Joss "Damocles" Whedon), has just been scattered to pieces in outer space by the first wave of Skrull armada.
of course, she's still alive and finally figures out how she's been had over the years by the Skrull politicians, so there's that. but the invasion has begun and she still has to come into play.
so who's left? uhh, how about Teddy "Hulkling" Altman, Young Avenger?
i guess 'em Skrulls don't recognize his royal blood. or maybe they just hate gays. bad Skrulls!
ahhhh, who are we kidding? the time for negotiations are over!! let the Skrull-smashing begin!!!
(wait ... Tony is a Skrull ... Tony is a Skrull ... Tony is a Skrull ...)
