It'll probably never happen in a story, but in a lot of ways, Stark helped the Skrulls out by pushing the SHRA and then also in enforcing it. In fact, it's probably why they didn't replace him with a Skrull. He did a good deal of their job for them, and in some ways softened the U.S. for an invasion in the first place. I think it'd be just as powerful and poignant a story to have Tony come to grips with his actions and realize he crossed major lines to promote what he labelled as decisions for the better good. In leadership terms, right now he's no better than Dr Doom. Some of his backers might also benefit from such an epiphany. and it might be time for him to stop bragging about what a "futurist" he is.

Based on half of the comics from the last year, i'd say there's severe disorganization as well. Seriously, I know the IDEA is cool, but anyone who salutes the SHRA is not thouroughly reading the stories imo.

You're missing the point. A unified organization is easier to infiltrate than several seperate ones. Not only that, the "several seperate organizations" model has worked in the MU for years, against everyone from Wraiths to Surtur to the Beyonder. Veranke was right. Tony is the greatest hero the Skrulls have ever known. Michael

> > > ***A skrull would have pushed for the chaos that was pre-SHRA. > > > > ***The skrull situation seems to stem back from a looooongg time ago before there was a SHRA... Yes, and note they didn't try to take over during THAT time, because of the fragmentary nature of the heroes, ONLY after the SHRA was in force. >as far as the effectiveness of the act itself...hell it was said in Civil War itself that crime had gone down like 40% or some number... Have you noticed any particualr drop in villainous activity in the MU? Can't say that I have. >there are now teams every where in the country and not just NY, Yes, and that means there's a Skrull agent within each group of heroes. They might have been better positioned to take over NY before, now they're better positioned to take over the COUNTRY! >and it doesn't just have to do with super villains but when people just need help...they have a genuine registered hero there to help them...It is because of the SHRA all the eggs are not in one place. I think you're misreading my point. The SHRA regulation has created an monolithic infrastructure for heroic activity which never existed before. By infiltrating that infrastructure, the Skrulls are in a vastly better position to strike than the pre-SHRA set up would allow, since it provides them with a framework for control, communication, and intel undreamed of before the SHRA. Look at it this way. In the past, if the Skrulls wanted to invade, the would have to fight the Avengers, then they would still have to attack the Defenders separately, because there was no correllation between the two teams, and the Fantastic Four, and the X-Men etc... A war on multiple fronts, each with their own backup plans, intel and technology to rely on. Now the lucky Skrulls can, in one fell swoop, disable the internal communications which ALL these teams rely on, and by infiltrating the core, already have agents in those teams, who are in much better positions to share intel and communications with each other. Advantage Skrulls...

A unified organization is easier to infiltrate than several seperate ones.

Secret Invasion...havent you seen the 50 states initive teams he spearheaded working together to try and repel the skrull invasion...just cause the skrulls are still winning doesnt mean they havent unified.
