Secret Invasion

In 2009, Marvel Comics published "Secret Invasion," a single-issue story by writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Leinil Yu that caps the larger "Secret Invasion" event. The issue brings together Captain America, Hawkeye, and Spider-Man in a decisive confrontation against the shape-shifting Skrulls, whose long-term infiltration of Earth's heroes had been the event's central threat. As a concluding chapter, it matters for delivering the final, high-stakes resolution to one of Marvel's most sprawling crossover sagas of the era.
