According to a recent Marvel press release:
-
“With Secret Invasion in full swing, Hercules’ sister Athena has banded together a sacred group of deities to face the imminent Skrull threat! Incredible Hercules #117, a tie-in to the red-hot Secret Invasion event, gives you a front row seat to a battle of divine proportions. In this issue, the critically acclaimed writing team of Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente unveil the premiere appearance of the all new GOD SQUAD, including fan-favorite Snowbird!”
That’s right - as the Skrulls take over the mortal coil, their alien deities are moving into our celestial realms. Marvel gets to highlight their various versions of mythology’s greatest characters. Team-up books are always great, but this one looks more interesting than most because we aren’t seeing the same old super heroes juxtaposed in a team - we get to see B-list characters that are never really addressed, though they are important.
Incredible Hercules #117 is to be released May 21, and preview art is below.
