But today, the comic sees Trudeau meeting with the Canadian super-team, now aligned with Captain Marvel and her side of the Civil War II fight, using the Inhuman Ulysses to predict future disasters and prevent them, in some cases incarcerating people before they have committed the act in question. And all the Minority Report questions that provokes.
