Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #1
Sun, October 19th, 2008 | By Doug Zawisza

Fri, October 17th, 2008 | By Greg McElhatton

Mighty Avengers #19
Thu, October 16th, 2008 | By Doug Zawisza
The title of this issue may as well have been "Captain Marvel's Secret Invasion Identity Crisis Special," which would be more accurate to the story within.
