	Movie Poop Shoot - COMICS 101
		But in the context of the period, SECRET WARS was a bold experiment on Marvel’s part, on several fronts.
		Major characters from the SECRET WARS comic like the Thing and the Hulk were ignored because their larger size would have required a new body sculpt.
		The “Secret Wars” line limped through three series of figures before being abandoned by Mattel (although it did produce a halfway decent playset, the “Tower of Doom”).

	Oneida: Secret Wars (2004): Reviews
		Secret Wars is the first step toward the combination of Oneida's monolithic psych-rock and the numbing riff iteration they've spent so long deriving.
		‘Secret Wars’ is an engaging 40 minutes; a haphazard, likely to spontaneously combust at any moment 40 minutes to be sure, but that was the ethic that spawned rock ‘n’ roll in the first place and in these hands there’s plenty of life in it yet.
		Secret Wars is a sobering demonstration of what repetition can do in the wrong hands, as the Brooklyn trio funnel the most endurance-testing excesses of Suicide, Can, Sonic Youth and stoner rock into a joyless, oppressive piece of work.

		Secret Wars is full of non sequiturs, plotlines that go nowhere, developments that are never fully developed and just plain things that don't make sense.
		There really weren't any "official" Secret Wars crossovers as such, but most titles starring characters who participated in the story had issues featuring scenes in which the heroes were taken from or brought back to their homes.
		The Secret Wars crossover was really just an inconvenience for Bill Mantlo, who was in the middle of the countdown to #300.

		When the heroes returned to their regular issues, all the changes that would happen at the end of The Secret Wars were revealed, but had yet to happen in the actual limited series.

	Oneida: Secret Wars: Pitchfork Record Review
		The foundation of Secret Wars is repetition on a massive scale; songs are built atop the constant cycling of hyper-minimal progressions, fairly bludgeoning the listener into a state of docility with as minimal an approach as possible.
		For all of their bombast, the mix on Secret Wars is totally flat; vocals are strained, and the waves of sound aren't as immediately imposing as they ought to be.
		Nevertheless, Secret Wars is the first really unified effort Oneida has been able to construct, finally striking the perfect balance between the classic slabs of psych you grew up on and new-school mind-control.

	Secret Wars II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Secret Wars II is a nine-issue comic book limited series and crossover published by Marvel Comics from 1985 to 1986.
		The series was a sequel to 1984's Secret Wars, though unlike its predecessor it occurred on Earth and took place simultaneously in other Marvel comic books, enabling tie-in crossover stories within multiple issues of various titles.
		The storyline ended on a sombre note in Secret Wars II #9 (March, 1986) as the Beyonder's quest to understand the nature of desire is thwarted by a large group of super-heroes assembled by the Molecule Man, who view him as a threat to reality.

	SPIN.com: Oneida - Secret Wars
		But on their new LP, Secret Wars, Oneida successfully unite the disparate elements of their music.
		They channel experimental noise, acid-drenched riffs, and live-show spontaneity into a record of brilliantly crafted nuggets of lysergic rock that is easily their most consistent effort to date.
		Secret Wars crystallizes this powerful live minimalism into some of the band’s most propulsive studio tunes yet.

	SECRET WARS
		Although national opinion polls assure us that this nebulous war against "terrorists, and all who support them," is a popular one, high opinion poll ratings mask the very real and very deep anxiety that people feel, in their hearts, and in their guts, about the prospect of victory.
		In truth, there is a good reason for this sense of anxiety, as many Americans are, without their knowledge or okay, a part of the secret wars that are raging around the world.
		Such secret wars have dotted the history of the U.S., and made her the enemy of millions, on several continents.

		Secret Wars is perhaps the most unnecessary story ever told in comics, period.
		See, I was there when Secret Wars made its debut in comic shops throughout the US, and like any other 13-year-old, I was thrilled to see my favorite heroes and villains square off on a grand scale, similar to the old Silver Age DC team books.
		In Secret Wars, the stakes were high, as the winning team, heroes or villains, would receive their hearts' desires from an entity known only as "The Beyonder", who had spirited these characters away to an alien world and goaded them into combat.

		This brought the tensions between France and Germany to their worst point since the Franco-Prussian War and was nearly the cause of mobilisation by both side.

		This is the companion photo history to SOG: The Secret Wars of American's Commandos in Vietnam.
		The first book was primarily a collection of amazing, small, war stories in a historical framework with enough background and profile material to hold anyone's interest.
		There might be some more bitterness due to the fact that after the US pulled out of South Vietnam, a lot of the natives, both Montagnard and Vietnamese, that we worked and fought with, and loved, probably wound up against a wall or spent at least a decade or more in re-education camps.

	Beyonder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He was created by writer/editor Jim Shooter and artists Mike Zeck and John Beatty for the Secret Wars limited series (1984), although he was not given a physical form until Secret Wars II #1, which was written by Shooter and illustrated by penciller Al Milgrom and inker Steve Leialoha.
		Apparently, Thanos had encountered the Beyonder in the past, but this was never explained, as Thanos was dead at the time of Secret Wars II (of course, one of the Beyonder's many powers included Time Travel as well, so a past meeting with a younger Thanos of Titan would have been entirely possible).
		When Doctor Doom was defeated in "Doom," the third and last chapter to the Secret Wars, the Beyonder had all the heroes Spider-Man had prepared for the battle forget what they did and return everything back to normal for them on their homes.

	: RevolutionSF - Comics of 1986 #46: Secret Wars II : Feature
		Hot off the success of the 1984 Secret Wars crossover mini-series (arguably the first true “universe-wide” crossover) and its spin-off toy line, Marvel decided to revisit the concept almost before the ink was dry on the last issue of the original.
		In Secret Wars II this omnipotent being came to Earth to discover what it would be like to be human, and chose as his teachers the various heroes he encountered the last time around.
		This second Secret Wars series was seriously flawed on several levels, not least of all in the basic premise.

		Of all the oxymorons in politics and journalism, my favorite has been "secret war," wars being pretty tough to keep secret.
		And ever since the "secret war" in Laos in the 1960s, I've wondered why the CIA was conducting paramilitary operations.
		The military is both a much larger producer and consumer of intelligence than ever before, and the war on terror has blurred what we once thought were bright lines separating war fighting, intelligence and law enforcement.
