    "It's the leviathan from the first avengers hulk destroys with a punch"
    That's a Chitauri creature. They've been in 616 continuity for a while, which, as you say, is a cool movie tie-in.

    ... specifically #3, June 2013.
    Is that before Cataclysm?

    I've just checked the Wikipedia page: that Nova issue actually was their 616 debut. (It keeps saying #4, which was their first full issue, but #3 has a page at the end where you see the Chitauri sky-turtles.) Cataclysm isn't mentioned.

    Ultimates #8 was their first appearance, which was pre-MCU.
    Bit yeah, Nova was the first 616.

    Thanks, Phil - I haven't read much Ultimate Universe, so I didn't know if the Leviathans were from there or not. (I knew the Chitauri in general were, but only from researching the movie.)

    I agree with KM, I like that cover illustration of Sassy.
