The top 10 Secret Invasion memes that perfectly illustrate how were feeling about that shoc
Now that the debut episode of Marvel’s Secret Invasion has officially hit Disney Plus, fans are reacting with memes to one of the most gut-wrenching moments at the end of the show. Since the series is about a group of alien Skrulls who disguise themselves as humans in order to overthrow the world as we know it, it appears no one — not even fan-favorite characters — is safe.

Those who have seen Secret Invasion episode 1 can probably relate to the absolute devastation of seeing Cobie Smulders’ triumphant return to the MCU as the ex-S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Maria Hill only for our hearts to be broken at the end of the episode when she is apparently killed by a Skrull disguised as Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury.
Indeed, that heart-stopping moment, as well as the fake-out death of Martin Freeman’s Everett K. Ross at the beginning of the episode, made for quite the combination of emotions that arguably perfectly set the tone for the more grounded, espionage-oriented show. But the show’s quality did little to soothe the pain of seeing one of the MCU’s most underrated characters possibly bite the dust for good.
Only a sweat-drenched concert-goer hoping to see a musician’s encore while a stadium concert is being broken down could summarize one fan’s feelings on Maria’s abrupt exit.

— m (@rogersthmusical) June 21, 2023Can we take some time out of all this seriousness to just admire the meme-worthiness of Secret Invasion co-star Emilia Clarke reciting a classic Snoop Dogg track? Not to mention Ben Mendelsohn’s instantly iconic utterance of “shiznit.”
Emilia Clarke is us if we ever met Snoop Dogg! 😍 We never thought we’d ever hear Ben Mendelsohn say ‘shiznit.’ 😂 #SecretInvasion #EmiliaClarke #SnoopDogg #BenMendelsohn #Marvel #MCU #interview #EmiliaClarkeEdit #GameOfThrones
