The best of the lot are probably The Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD stories by Jim Steranko. Followed by Ed Brubaker's run on Captain America. I've not read that Marvel Team Up you mentioned, but I'll take your word for it on it's quality.Secret War tries to aspire to be like those stories, but falls short of the mark I feel. Bendis as usual, turned me off with his lame dialogue and rampant mischaracterizations.It's been good so far. SPOILERS Hulk arrives on Earth and he and his war party have been fighting off the Earth heroes left and right while he tries to capture the Illuminati. So far, he's singlehandedly beaten Black Bolt, Iron Man, and the Fantastic Four(to get to Reed Richards). He's right now fighting the X-Men and the rest of their associated teams while trying to capture Charles Xavier (who was willing to go with him voluntarily). SPOILERSI'm not however, looking forward to Marvel's next "big event" in 2008, which is an invasion of the Skrulls. SPOILERS If you must know, it was recently revealed that some of Earth's heroes are actually Skrulls in disguise. Elektra was revealed to be one, and Spider-Woman seems to be displaying signs of being a Skrull as well. Some of the heroes are also considering the possiblity that Iron Man may be a Skrull too, given his actions in Civil War. The tagline of this event is apparently, "Who can you trust?"  :\ A little too Battlestar Galactica if you ask me.SPOILERS</blockquote>
