The Mighty Captain Marvel #8 Repeats Scenes From Secret Empire #8

We already looked at how Deadpool and Uncanny Avengers show us what happens after Secret Empire #10, also out today. Is it possible that The Mighty Captain Marvel #8 by Margaret Stohl, Michele Bandini, and Erick Arciniega by was planned for a few weeks earlier? Because it does a fine job of representing the same scenes as happened in Secret Empire #8, two issues before the comic out today.

And now we get to compare and contrast how they tell the same scenes. And wonder if Nick Spencer is at least due a dialogue credit…

The Ultimate Nullifier shield attack, the fail, the subsequent Quasar attack, the success and the destruction of the Chitauri eggs also all follow beat for beat. One might feel a bit cheated reading Mighty Captain Marvel #8 if you had read Secret Empire #8. Though there is one big difference, never mentioned in Secret Empire #8: there's a bit of a plot hole regarding the absence of such a powerful being as Quasar from the rest of the fight from Secret Empire #8.
