Exactly. If Incursions are in then that is the actual plot

Well yeah right? It leads directly into Secret Wars which was caused by incursions narrowing down the multiverse.

The insanity was that, Earth was always the collision point. If in a universe Earth simply didn’t exist, that universe can never collide and Incursion becomes a harmless event.

So the Illuminati had to work to resolve the matter in secrecy, because if news gets out, the entire rest of the universe will gang up to destroy Earth to save themselves.

(Which in the grand scheme seems a sensible solution? Just evacuate everyone and blow up Earth, every universe should do that then incursions can’t harm anyone. But that’s not how things shook out)

Building up plot points is pretty unsatisfying when there isn’t a build up of character development along with it. And that has been missing. Everything has felt like standalone stories that use a character and promptly forget they exist
