Fictional History
As the team worked to help civilians during the Secret Invasion, 3-D Man and the Skrull Kill Krew attack. They reveal Desert Stars' member the Blacksmith to be a Skrull, and after a fierce battle they kill him. Most of the Desert Stars team is incapacitated during the fight, but Komodo leaves to help 3-D Man and the Skrull Kill Krew find the Skrulls who have infiltrated the other Initiative teams. The team later reappears helping the Heavy Hitters to protect a dam attacked by the superpowered villain Zzzax. When Norman Osborn takes over the Initiative, he has to deal with Prodigy leading the Heavy Hitters in separating from the Initiative. He gathers together a strike force to arrest the team, but chooses not to use the Desert Stars since they're friends with the Heavy Hitters. Komodo is later depowered and kicked out of the Initiative for arguing with new Initiative leader Taskmaster for covering up Hardball's crimes.

Famous quotes containing the words fictional and/or history:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“It’s nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I’m bloody close.”
—John Lydon (formerly Johnny Rotten)
