This Marvel Show Handled the Secret Invasion Comics Storyline Better Than the Actual Disney+ Series

Secret Invasion, by all counts, should have been a smash hit. It was the first Marvel Studios project to focus on Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson). Considering that the spymaster has been a significant part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe since its inception, getting his own series was an important milestone. It would also adapt the popular Marvel comic maxiseries by Brian Michael Bendis and Lenil Francis Yu, which saw the shape-shifting Skrulls launch a takeover of Earth (and revealed that they impersonated some of Marvel's biggest heroes). But Secret Invasion was a mess, killing off characters and muddling the Skrulls' motives in addition to looking less impressive than its massive budget would suggest.
