'Secret Invasion' Is Trying Too Hard to Go for Shock Value

So far, three of the first four episodes have ended the exact same way.

Editor's note: The below contains spoilers for Episode 4 of Secret Invasion.There’s no denying that Secret Invasion started with a bang. But given its self-contained nature, there are some constraints that keep the series from reaching its full potential. So, to compensate for the fact that Nick Fury is not being joined by any of the Avengers to fight an Avengers-level threat, it appears as if Secret Invasion is going for shock value instead.

Episode 4, "Beloved," ends with Gravik shooting Talos, Fury’s most trusted friend and valuable asset in this war. As with Maria Hill, Talos’ death is problematic for the series because it cuts short the possibility of him handing G’iah the leadership of the good Skrulls. Since his first appearance in Captain Marvel, Talos became a fan favorite thanks to his good guy twist and Mendelsohn’s portrayal.
