My name is Oedi and I soar amidst the stars far from the planet of my birth. I guess this starship is the closest thing I've got to a home now, for I am a refugee and an outlaw. Vanth Dreadstar, Syzygy Darklock, Willow 327, Rainbow and Skeevo are my family. We are revolutionaries. Our goal? To bring an end to the 200 year old war between the Instrumentality and the Monarchy!

I could have told you that.
An interesting detail, the relevant issues have apparently (and very logically) been collected in the SW II Omni. Making it, in effect, The Secret Wars II & III Omnibus.

Avengers Illuminati. The less is said of that, the better.

I point to crossovers and line wide events as one of the main reasons comic readership has dwindled (I have course have no statistical evidence to back this up, other than conversations I've had with lapsed/former fans). No one would be expected to watch 'hell's kitchen' to follow the story of 'fringe' simply because it's sweeps and the executives are mandating a network wide crossover. Here's a challenge...name 5 'in continuity' marvel ongoings in the last 5 years that have had a self-contained run of two years without being interrupted by a crossover which left it's prior status quo either a mess or completely irrelevant.
