April saw Secret Invasion begin its takeover of the Marvel Universe as the first issue was met with an almost instant sellout and was subsequently rushed back to press for a second printing. As the invasion spreads throughout other Marvel titles, the sellouts continue!
Secret Invasion tie-ins Mighty Avengers #12, New Avengers #40 and Ms. Marvel #26 have sold out at Diamond. Marvel has no plans on going back to press at this time.
These sellouts follow the success of the Secret Invasion: Infiltration issues Captain Marvel #3-5 and Ms. Marvel #25, which also racked up sellouts and a must-have collection of their own.
As Secret Invasion #2 hits stores May 7th, be sure to pick up the other May Secret Invasion tie-ins in Mighty Avengers #13 and #14, New Avengers #41, Secret Invasion: Fantastic Four #1, Captain Britain and MI13 #1, Incredible Hercules #117 and Ms. Marvel #27.
Marvel urges retailers to check their orders on upcoming Secret Invasion tie-ins.

"Abbott and Costello Meet The Secret Invasion"
Bud : Well, Costello, I'm going to New York with you. Y'know, Tony Stark gave me a job to search for Skrulls for as long as you're on the team.
Lou : Look, Abbott, if you're at the Mansion, you must know all the Avengers.
Bud : I certainly do.
Lou : Well, you know, I never met the Avengers, so you have to tell me their names, and then I'll know who the Skrulls are playing on the team.
Bud : Oh, I'll tell you their names, but you know, strange as it may seem, they give these Skrull Avengers nowadays very peculiar names.
Lou: You mean funny names?
Bud: Strange names. Code names like Green Wolverine.
Lou: I see.
Bud: Let's see, we have on the team: Who's not Herc, Wasp's on second, I don't know who's not Thor...
Lou: That's what I want to find out.
Bud: I said: Who's not Herc, Wasp's on second, I don't know who's not Thor...
Lou: Are you at the Mansion?
Bud: Yes.
Lou: You know the Skrulls, too?
Bud: Yes.
Lou: Do you know the false Avengers' names?
Bud: Well, I should.
Lou: Well, then, who's not Herc?
Bud: Yes.
Lou: I mean the Skrulls' names?
Bud: Who.
Lou: The guy not Herc.
Bud: Who.
Lou: The false Avenger.
Bud: Who.
Lou: The guy pretending...
Bud: Who is not Herc.
Lou: I'm asking you who's not Herc.
Bud: That's the Skrull's name.
Lou: That's whose name?
Bud: Yes.
Lou: Well, go ahead and tell me.
Bud: That's it.
Lou: That's who?
Bud: Yes.
Lou: Look, you got a Skrull Avenger?
Bud: Certainly.
Lou: Who's playing Herc?
Bud: That's right.
Lou: When you pay off the false Avenger every month, who gets the money?
Bud: Every dollar of it.
Lou: All I'm trying to find out is the false Avenger's name with Herc's face.
Bud: Who.
Lou: The Skrull who...
Bud: That's it.
Lou: Who gets the money...
Bud: He does, every hour. Sometimes, his life comes down to perfect it.
Lou: Whose life?
Bud: Yes. What's wrong with that?
Lou: Look, all I want to know is when you sign up the Skrull Avenger, how does he sign his name to the contract?
Bud: Who.
Lou: The Skrull.
Bud: Who.
Lou: How does he sign his name?
Bud: Who. That's how he signs it.
Lou: Who?
Bud: Yes.
Lou: All I'm trying to find out is what's the Skrull's name with Herc's face?
Bud: No. Wasp is on second face.
Lou: I'm not asking you who's on second.
Bud: Who's not Herc.
Lou: One face at a time!
Bud: Well, don't change the Avengers around.
Lou: I'm not changing nobody!
Bud: Take it easy, buddy!
Lou: I'm only asking you who's the Skrull with Herc's face?
Bud: That's right.
Lou: Okay.
Bud: All right.
Lou: I mean, what's the Skrull's name with Herc's face?
Bud: No, Wasp is on second.
Lou: I'm not asking you who's on second.
Bud: Who's not Herc.
Lou: I don't know.
Bud: Oh, he's not Thor. We're not talking about him.
Lou: Now, how did I get on Thor's face?
Bud: Why, you mentioned his name.
Lou: If I mentioned the third Avenger's name, who did I say is playing Thor?
Bud: No, Who is playing Herc.
Lou: Wasp's on first?
Bud: Wasp's on second.
Lou: I don't know.
Bud: He's not Thor.
Lou: There I go, back on Thor again.
Bud: Will you stay on Thor's face and don't go off it?
Lou: All right.
Lou: Now, who's wearing Thor's face?
Bud: Why do you insist on putting Who on Thor's face?
Lou: What am I putting him on Thor's face?
Bud: Wasp is on second.
Lou: You don't want who on second?
Bud: Who is not Herc.
Lou: I don't know.
Bud/Lou: THOR'S FACE!
Lou: Look, you got an East Coast?
Bud: Sure.
Lou: The East Coaster's name?
Bud: Witch.
Lou: I just thought I'd ask you.
Bud: Well, I just thought I'd tell you.
Lou: Then, tell me who's out on the East Coast.
Bud: Who is playing Herc.
Lou: I'm not... stay out of the West Coast!
Lou: I want to know what's the Skrull's name on the East Coast.
Bud: No, Wasp is on second.
Lou: I'm not asking you who is on second.
Bud: Who is not Herc.
Bud: I don't know.
Bud/Lou: THOR'S FACE!
Lou: And the East Coaster's name?
Bud: Witch.
Lou: These claws!
Bud: Oh, he's West Coast.
Lou: Look, look, look, you got a picture of the team?
Bud: Sure.
Lou: The picture's framed?
Bud: To Phoenix.
Lou: You don't want to show it to me here?
Bud: I'm showing it to you here.
Lou: Then go ahead.
Bud: To Phoenix.
Lou: What time?
Bud: What time what?
Lou: What time in Phoenix are you going to show me the picture?
Bud: Now listen, it's not Who's picture.
Lou: I'll break your arm if you say who's not Herc. I want to know what's the picture's frame.
Bud: Wasp's on second.
Lou: I don't know.
Bud/Lou: THOR'S FACE!
Lou: Got a Captain?
Bud: Certainly.
Lou: The Captain's name?
Bud: America.
Lou: America. And the picture to Phoenix.
Bud: Now, you've got it.
Lou: All we've got is a couple of days on the road.
Lou: Y'know, I'm a Captain, too.
Bud: So they tell me.
Lou: I get behind the shield and I do some fancy captaining. To Phoenix is my picture on the team, and a Kree hunter gets up. Now the Kree hunter busts the wall. When he busts the wall, me being a good Captain, I'm gonna throw the guy out in the first place. So I pick up the wall and show it to who?
Bud: That's the first thing you said right.
Lou: I don't even know what I'm talking about!
Bud: That's all you have to do.
Lou: Show the wall in the first place.
Bud: Yes.
Lou: Now who's got it?
Bud: Naturally.
Lou: I show the wall in the first place, now someone's got to get it. Now who has it?
Bud: Naturally.
Lou: Who?
Bud: Naturally.
Lou: Naturally?
Bud: Naturally.
Lou: So I pick up the wall and I show it to Naturally.
Bud: No. You show the wall to Who.
Lou: Naturally.
Bud: That's what I said.
Lou: I show the wall to Naturally.
Bud: You show the wall to Who.
Lou: Naturally.
Bud: That's it.
Lou: That's what I said!
Bud: You ask me.
Lou: I show the wall to who?
Bud: Naturally.
Lou: Now you ask me.
Bud: You show the wall to Who.
Lou: Naturally.
Lou: Same as you!
Lou: I show the wall to who. Whoever it is drops the wall, and he runs in seconds. Who picks up the wall and shows it to what. What shows it to I don't know. I don't know shows it back to Phoenix. Makes my day!
Bud: Yes.
Lou: Another spy gets up and it's a long flight to the East Coast, and these claws. Witch? I don't know, he's not Thor, and I don't give a Pym.
Bud: A what?
Lou: I said I don't give a Pym!
Bud: Oh, that's our Quinjet!
