New Avengers #40

In a world under the Skrull empire, human DNA is being weaponized, and Earth's heroes are being mimicked with terrifying precision. As Galactus consumes their home world, the Skrull empress invokes ancient prophecies, declaring Earth her next dominion—and she chooses to become Spider-Woman to lead the Secret Invasion. Written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by Jim Cheung, with inks by John Dell and colors by Justin Ponsor, this pivotal issue features a cover by Aleksi Briclot that captures the chilling transformation at the heart of the Skrull threat.
