That’s what happens in Green Arrow #3 as Ollie and Lian are pulled into the future to join Connor Hawke and the Legion of Super-Heroes where it’s revealed an older version of Oliver Queen allowed Amanda Waller to play interdimensional hop-scotch with his entire family for something they might do on one particular timeline.

The third episode of Secret Invasion is only a marginal improvement over the first two episodes of the series It may reveal Gravik‘s (Kingsley Ben-Adir) big plan of creating Super-Skrulls but it doesn’t do much else. It teases us about the relationship between Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) and Varra (Charlayne Woodard) without exploring it. It kills off G’iah (Emilia Clarke) before she can become interesting, and gives Fury and and Talos (Ben Mendelsohn) the opportunity to bicker like old lovers while stopping the Skrulls force an attack on an infiltrated nuclear submarine.
