@@coancave988 Drax is physically as strong as Thanos. The comics make this clear, the movies imply it, his whole gig in BOTH is "Im the future killer of Thanos". In the comics Gamora outright says Drax might take him physically, but he wouldnt be smart enough. He IS drax "the world destroyer" after all. Hulk, however, is 10x stronger than Thanos, even THANOS says it. Blow for Blow Hulk is by far the strongest, thanos is simply smarter. Why they would ever even think about shifting to anything else for power is baffling. They clearly imply with the Shorts/Kick thats suppose to be brute hulk.

It was absolutely maddening to me that Ritson declared war on the Skrulls after having Talos save his life. And it’s crazy that Fury didn’t event mention that.

honestly might be a skrull who is acting as the president to rile people up so that the skrulls have an excuse for attacking + gaining public sympathy

I suppose it can be argued that Fury knew Ritson wouldn't care, even if he did remind him, because Ritson was butt hurt over not twigging on Rhodey being off or that Ritson would bluster about Talos not saving him but trying to break though the bulletproof glass to kill him.

Lmao I genuinely think the only reason why they conjured up their clothing items as well as their powers is to make it unmistakably that characters powers.

[@Griever]

Gravik was team Fury before Endgame, so there is no point he would take Rhodey at that point. Also, you can see that Rhodey is using that tech that helps him walk in every movie after Civil War but not in the Falcon series. Also I couldn't spot Skrhodey using them. At the start of the Endgame's final battle, Rhodey is injured and forced to leave his Warmachine suit behind, and we see him crawling, which means he can't walk on his own

[@chelsealee144]

Also how people are helping him out of the skrull base while everyone else walks just fine - yes he may have been there a lot longer than everyone else but still the others look like they weren’t affected physically even remotely being in the pods

I'm kinda surprised how there's no mention in the series about how the Skrulls put in all this work to be accepted but it's the Asgardians who got their own place on earth.

[@nvcomics]

Its kinda assumed that its because Asgardians LOOK human enough

[@rykkermormont6482]

ig it’s all to do with Asgardians being mostly human-looking beings. Also it does help when an ex leader of the aliens was based off of the Norse gods (well the opposite but u get what I mean)

[@juliusrafaelc.bautista1309]

Asgardians look human and do not need someone else's face to fit in.

[@burneyboys02]

Good point.

[@slothreacts34]

Well also they have one heck of a poster boy (Thor) as proof of the goodness of Asgard. Think of it this way if Nick Fury just went “Ayo Ritson we got a million skrulls living in anonymity all over the world, is it cool if they get there own place to stay…. What? You think I’m crazy?” He would be laughed out of the Oval Office and probably arrested for assisting them

[@jcsanpedro]

If you think about it, Gravik was still under Fury after the Battle in Endgame, this was told when he was showing the Harvest to Gravik and telling that they are the one who collected it. With these information, we can assume that there was no Skrull hiding as a high profile government official just like Rhodey before the Battle of Endgame. In conclusion, Rhodey Skrull was never a thing before Endgame.

[@jaywithani2753]

I agree it doesn’t make sense to say that pre endgame rhodey was a skrull especially when you see he has red blood during the battle of endgame ? And it would be awful knowing he didn’t share those moments with Tony and his fellow avengers. But if they do go down that route, I suppose it may make for some emotional and interesting content in armour wars .

[@zacharyharper2660]

facts

[@lady_draguliana784]

Presumably, Rhody would need numerous surgeries over the course of many years (he's walking due to Stark Tech, but he's NOT healed). Thus, they could schedule a subsequent surgery anywhere in the timeline they wanted to have him taken from the recovery room.

[@johnboone9917]

This would make a lot more sense than him being a Skull since being injured in Civil War. Not to mention the Rhodey we see in Secret Invasion is a completely different personality to every other previous Rhodey appearance, including after Civil War. I don't see how Marvel Studios could make a convincing argument of Civil War being the point at which Rhodey was captured and subsequently impersonated by the Skrulls.

[@Dev1559]

Rhodey's clothes is never the indicator to me. Seems too unreliable. It's his inability to walk which is still apparent in Endgame and then completely healed in TFATWS. He is kidnapped after Endgame

[@MikeisVS]

In Falcon you can still see a slight glow from the Stark tech shining through his pants

[@Firelance2361]

Yeah, so likely he was taken sometime after that and the reason we see him in the hospital gown is that maybe he got abducted while getting some surgery done for his condition, and that’s when Grava took his place.

[@coancave988]

yeah, because of his physical condition, he may go hospital to check regularly. there is no reason skrulls to take risk of kidnap just injured rhodey under furious Ironman's care.

[@MrPeter310]

Maybe after civil war accident actually

[@moonrivervayonetta]

​@@coancave988And Vision too

[@Mo_Gotem]

I think that’s a huge reach that Rhodey was gone since Civil war. His blood was red in endgame and could’ve easily gone back to the hospital after that fight

[@cornixregina]

I'm with you. I think it's been since after FATWS but the "blood was red" defence is moot because Agent Ross' blood was red when he was injured at the start of episode one. It's only when they're dying, dead or had a part amputated that the blood reverts back to purple.

[@spoons250]

Or even been experimented on by Skrolls. No reason they wouldnt use a nightgown. I mean, theyve been living as people for 40 years and have access to mostly human tech.

[@ODell1931]

Anyone else notice that Varra’s book is called “Decoding the Superhuman Gene” and on the back of the book there’s an x? Seems like more groundwork for the mutants. 22:28

[@Zenlore6499]

I swear, we better hear about when Ross and Rhodey were taken. Going solely by their clothes is NOT enough, we gotta hear Rhodey say it. The implication that what feels like half the time we’ve known him he’s been a Skrull is so dirty to just leave us hanging on with no conversation about it.

[@kingkong9892]

I mean for Ross it is enough. For one he doesn’t seem to be have been there for too long and his shirt is the same one he wore when Val arrested him in wakanda forever and Martin Freeman himself said he doesn’t believe Ross has been a skrull this whole time so everything matches up. Rhodey however….

[@kerwinliwanag3879]

Or maybe Rhodey was simply taken during a regular trip to the hospital, most likely during a therapy session, since you know, he still can't walk.

[@blowc1612]

Right? Being in hospital gown doesn't mean anything. He could have supposed to get injury to help him walk better which why no one questioned he can walk because it was a surgery he was going to get.

[@serena3560]

To be fair tho 1. Usually when you do physical therapy after getting out of the hospital they don’t put you in hospital gowns. 2. With the amount of technological advancements around him and what we see him do it doesn’t seem like he spent even a quarter as long as it would realistically take to heal.

[@slothreacts34]

I was thinking the exact same thing… but there is still the hospital gown we have to figure out because they don’t just put you in a hospital gown every time you go for a routine visit

[@DOC2089]

Yeah I thought the same. I guess the question is what’s “a long time” (Giah) in the MCU. If it happened post endgame then I guess that is like about 2023-2025. That’s only 2 years. Ross definitely was taken after BP2. Looks like the same clothes from the movie. So he only been in the pod for a few months or so.

[@jazzomj]

Exactly! Maybe he had appendicitis.

[@olanmills64]

I really think Rhodes was taken after Endgame. It ruins too much character stuff otherwise. Just because he's in a hospital gown, that doesn't mean he was taken after Civil War. There's all sorts of reasons he could have gone to the hospital after Endgame. Maybe he needed surgery after the big battle. Maybe he just went in for a routine physical!

[@SamuelThadius12]

Right! I believe he was taken after end Game as well since he wore leg braces from civil war to end game, then in The falcon & the Winter Soldier he was seen walking without them, so he had to have been a skrull then!

I think Priscilla "Unlocking the Superhuman Gene" is meant to be a prelude to the X-Gene of Mutants (and X-men) in which it's 'active', as well as being used as a plot device for how some humans gain superpowers from what kills most others (see Deadpool and Daredevil) because they have it but it's not active (Latent). AND there's the fact that Inhumans' powers are derived from genetic alterations made by the Kree millions of years ago when they used early humans for experiments that, presumably, lead to the super-powering of Kree Elites like Ronan and the Accusers.

[@jolypoly6743]

I actually liked the Gravik monologue in this episode and the somewhat creative uses of the variety of superpowers in the fight scene But the OP nature of getting all these abilities into one person is insane and the CGI on that was a big oof Also I’m glad I wasn’t the only confused about the pod scene at the end

[@AT32556]

The Gravik and Fury exchange was such a powerful moment, but it loses its emotion when you realize it wasnt actually Fury. It seems like a key character moment for Fury to realize his failures with the Skrulls, but instead its just G'iah trying to trick Gravik.

[@jayjay24155]

The fact that gravik and fury never actually confront each other in the finale is absolute absurd. They let gravik give a crucial final monologue to essentially no one. Meaning fury learns nothing from this story and we're all just laughing as gravik gets a prank pulled on him.

[@AT32556]

I don't think Rhodey has been a Skrull for long considering Gravik was part of the team of Skrulls Fury sent into the aftermath of the Battle of Earth to collect samples. So, since Gravik and Fury were still cordial then, there would be no reason for a Skrull aligned with Gravik to impersonate Rhodey. Possible shortly after this, Gravik broke ties with Fury and Talos, and had someone close in the facility able to subdue and impersonate Rhodey.

In falcon and the winter soldier, Rhodey doesn't have the leg brace that he's had since civil war, I think that he was replaced after endgame, and thats why he needed help when he was freed, because his legs hadn't fully healed yet

[@dippin4dots]

Maybe Rhodey was around during the clean up of the Battle of Earth, and the Skrull DNA clean up crew just kinda kidnapped him then and there.

[@germany2546]

Or he has good legs but since he hasn't done the therapy of learning to walk again is the reason why he would need help.

The dey does have the braces in FandWs tho so it was most likely after he got promoted

[@TheBlackSaint]

I doubt the Skrulls would bother letting Rhodey have the leg brace while in captivity. In other words, his inability to walk only really lets us know that the change happened after Civil War (but I would guess after Endgame).

[@IzzzzzK]

As the series ends, I can now confidently say that Agents of SHIELD did a lot better in spy thriller "don't know who to trust" plot in their AIDA-Framework Arc when the LMDs infiltrated SHIELD and kidnapped and replaced May, Coulson, Fitz, and The Patriot. It felt more like Secret Invasion that Secret Invasion itself. Also, as a constant MCU enjoyer, even I felt underwhelmed by the ending scenes of Secret Invasion. Don't get me wrong, the suspenseful set up for Secret Wars and Fury-Varra arc are so good in their own ways. But together, they're like punching each other. Maybe the transition to the scene didn't go smoothly? I don't know. They just feel odd together.

A lot of people are saying you can tell when Rhodey gets replaced is when his leg braces are gone, and he still had them at Stark's funeral so Rhodey might've been replaced sometime after the funeral, maybe the skrull that replaced him (blanking on their name right now) was on the team that got the Harvest and replaced him then?

[@imdrivingbro513]

The rebellion of Gravik happens after the Harvest so yeah Rhodey at Stark's funeral was real

[@CCJAN.5]

Perhaps the medical clothing from civil war isn’t a give away, maybe instead he went to the hospital after endgame but I’m pretty sure he’d do that right after the battle

During the DNA Sequencing process, adaptor sequences are added to DNA samples, which among other things, links them with a specific ID i.e like a barcode. Multiple samples are then pooled together into one sample and then run on a sequencing instrument, in a single lane. The adaptor sequence is later used to identify the specific samples. Also, the samples are not red i.e blood color because it’s plasma. This is blood, centrifuged to separate the red blood cells from everything else. This is usually done because hemoglobin (red pigment) inhibits PCR (DNA amplification). I think these details are well thought out. I knew one day that molecular biology degree would come in use! (Even though I now work in IT)

[@drizzo4669]

how are the hulks shorts included in the dna sequence?

[@DigitalXAddict]

Rhodey being gone since Civil War, not realizing how things have changed so much, including the death of his best friend will make his story in Armor Wars amazing. I can’t wait to see it now!

No it will be horrible if we’re just now seeing him then after so many years. He’s been amazing in IW and EG and it ruins many great moments.

that won’t happen because gravik wouldn’t have started his plan til after endgame because he was still working for fury collecting the hero and villain samples so why would he kidnap rhodey in civil war

What was most intriguing to me was that when Gravik turned his right arm into Ebony Maw's arm, jewelry appeared, but not the sleeve of Ebony's suit. So my hypothesis is that Ebony Maw's powers rather come from the jewelry or unlock his powers like Kamala Khan's bangle.

In regards to all the dna being in one vial, we know that nano technology exists in the MCU so its possible that each dna strand is held within a nanobot.

[@MarisaClardy]

Which could also explain how the machine knows who specifically each DNA belongs too, and why it might be their superhero moniker rather than their real name: It was filed under their superhero names in the vial.

[@jaustill237]

It's neither necessary to separate them out nor to have nanobots in play. You just need to know the length of code at the end. Think of it like using a search function in Word. You could slap the complete works of shakespear into one file and be able to go to the start of any play just by knowing the opening lines.

No because the hammer is enhanced with magic, skrulls can't copy magic.

At least with Mjolnir, it has nothing to do with DNA, is has to do if you are worthy. Jane Foster was worthy without having any connection to Thor's DNA....same with Steve Rogers. Not sure what it takes for Stormbreaker...why is Thor able to call it and nobody else?

[@redpanda9367]

@@TheMonker2 true, it’s based on worthiness…I thought this might be a loop hole to trick the hammer since it would think it’s“Thor’s arm” calling it. As far as Stormbreaker is concerned, you only need to be physically strong enough to wield it, there’s no enchantment on it. That’s how Thanos was able to grab and redirect it into Thor in Endgame for example, or Gorr being able to wield it for that matter.
