Question

Ok so long story short, I and [livejournal.com profile] ellyr_in_ink were looking up the invaders and in the wiki article on them down at the bottom there was this info about the current 2008-2009 series:

Basically we are both now going WTF and wondering if anyone as more into on the invaders series because -


According to Ross, who will be doing covers and design work for the series, it is a series that will return the young WW2 Captain America (Steve Rogers) to modern continuity, along with the other four original Invaders created in 1940s: Human Torch, Toro, Bucky, and Namor.

Wha? We had thought Time Traveling Steve was temporary. Is he staying? Does that mean this is how they are bringing Steve back and he and Tony will have to start all over from scratch. We are currently very very confused. Help?


In conclusion, should we be buying this?

The alternate timelines thing has been brought up before if I remember correctly. I think it was with some alien cult that found a part of the Iron Man armor int he distant future and started worshiping it. They brought 616 Tony (who was from a different timeline) to their future to end some holy war that was going on. I'm not sure if Tony remembers it or not...Anyway, alt timeline!Steve is possible.

Oh teen!Tony, the Stark shame. Frankly, I don't know how they managed to not destroy the universe when teen!Tony showed up.

What I was thinking of, though, was what happened in Young Avengers when tiny!Kang didn't go back to his proper place in the timeline, so the entire world began to change. The impression I got from the writing in this series is that something similar was going to happen if the Invaders didn't get put back in place.

But really, if bad things is going to happen, it would have already have happen, because the moment the Invaders arrive in the present, they've already left the past, so that the present they arrive in should be different then what we know of!

...and then there are their memories!

...and this is why Time Travel is always crack and Dubious.

Ah, but it took a couple issues for it to happen in YA.

For some reason, it always takes a moment for time to realign itself *thinks of Legacy of Kain*
