The problem is that I don't recall the main IM title dealing with the Skrull invasion. Ever.

I really don't like how they expect you to read every series in the Marvel Universe just to know wtf is going on in each individual one.

Ummm, I'm at work so I can't actually tell you when he shows up as the Iron Patriot in IIM, but I know he does. Somewhere before now.<br><br>And, yeah, I'm pretty peeved about how they didn't bother to explain how Osborn got Tony's job in IIM too. Maybe I missed something when reading back issues, but I'm pretty sure I didn't...
