* BigDamnHeroes: As part of a plan to find out how to break the human spirit, Skrulls impersonating Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Panther, and Hawkeye entered Captain America's cell on the Skrulls' spaceship, claiming to be Avengers coming to rescue him. Cap didn't take long to realize these weren't really his friends.
* CoverIdentityAnomaly: When Skrull-Wasp first meets Ms. Marvel, she comments on her leotard as if she never saw her wear it before. Which actually makes sense since they were impersonating the Avengers ''before'' they came back from Asgard, meaning they weren't supposed to know Carol had become a superheroine.

Avengers. Ultimately, [[spoiler: Nick Fury found out Steve got replaced after seeing the Skrull perform an unprovoked attack on Ronin the Accuser, and also send the Hulk to jail for a crime he didn't commit. Unfortunately, neither Fury nor the Avengers could stop him from exploiting the public's admiration of Cap to try and make people support the Skrulls. The real Captain America soon defeated the Skrull in a duel, but the damage done to Steve's reputation took longer to repair.]]
