I suppose that cover lets you know just what you're in for. Two butt-poses and a lump of mashed potatoes shaped in the form of a human.
... I'd ask why the SHIELD goons burst into Hank's house with guns, but pretty sure any answer will inevitably be "they're SHIELD".
(Also, it might be because the artwork, but it does look more like Maria's taking a nap than being concussed. "Oh, Ultron again? You know what, I'm just gonna lie down now. You don't really need me, right?")
It's pretty impressive that when Earth's Mightiest Heroes adapted this storyline just how much they changed. (Well, did they change it, or mash it up with several other Ultron stories? They did include several beats from this one. Does that make it an adaptation?)
Real Hank even mentions his regrets about Skrull Hank, shortly before Tigra jumps his bones. Something along the lines of "Fake Me was better at being Me than I was."
I mean I miss Hank's and Greer's much better characterizations in AA. The Initiative reads like poorly written fan-fic.
It's not like Tigra doesn't often end up looking like an orange lady with stripes instead of like a lady with fur, but something about it here is especially noticeable to me.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

Somewhere... in the dark places where mortals fear to tread...
