    Yeah, I saw this and said, “Oh oh oh, this can’t be good.”

    And I meant that in a good way. Norman Osborn is running the show–and I think darker times are ahead in the Marvel U.

    Fun stuff.

  2. Wendell T. Says:

    What’s so “ominous” about Norman Osborn spying on heroes of the MU. Am I missing something? If so, someone please…enlighten me.

  3. Unlike Wendell T, NOT Too Cool For The Room Says:

    Who’s the one with the fire chains? Ghost Rider?

  4. Jas Says:

    “Target Lost”
    I wonder who that is?

  5. David Pepose Says:

    @Jas: I would speculate Iron Man. War Machine is a possibility, too, however, as a big loose cannon out there.

    @Unlike Wendell: I believe that is J.T. Slade aka Hellfire, grandson of the Phantom Rider and current member of Nick Fury’s Secret Warriors.

    Not sure what any of it all means, but I have found the handful of Marvel books I read far more entertaining than anything by the Didiot’s Dysfunctional Competition (or is that Death Central?).

    The Dark Reign stuff I’ve read has been fun, thus far, so I’m probably onboard for whatever’s coming in September.

    I enjoy the play on words “The Iron Patriot Acts”. It Acts could either be a verb meaning the Iron Patriot takes action and acting as a pun to the Patriot Act.
    I’m enjoying Dark Reign quite a bit so far, and can’t wait to see how Norman eventually falls from grace.

    “Target Lost” is The Sentry. Betcha.

  9. Ed Says:

    I hope that they give the fans a little satisfaction when they finally do show Norman’s downfall, by making it massive, public, harsh and humiliating; something that it will take him a long time to even begin to recover from reputation-wise and not just something he’ll be sneaking away from unscathed.

  10. Mike Thompson Says:

    Who the heck cares? This fallout from Secret Invasion schtick is getting OLD.
