That's a good thing. Means they might actually be planning on keeping their schedule of this summer event actually being a SUMMER event and not a "take up half the year" event.
Gabriel Myers
Wait, they're triple shipping Secret Empire with two $5 issues and then making every title posted from the solicit so far a tie-in? What the fuck is this shit?
Parker Fisher
3 issues in one month? Damn. So it looks like the 3 disasters going on at once orchestrated by Captain Hydra are the Chitauri Invasion, the Masters of Evil attack and Baron Mordo bringing Hell on Earth.

Unless Steve kills him in the lead-up, he'd have to be. Although I guess him being the first person to find out the truth about Steve doesn't really matter when the whole world finds out in the first issue.
