Siege – Dark Avengers | Comics

Norman Osborn is trying to keep his Dark Avengers together from falling apart and succumbing to his Green Goblin persona.

Shortly after being agreed to work with Norman Osborn and joining his Dark Avengers, Noh-Varr was enlightened by Ms. Marvel that these are just criminals and madmen he has surrounded himself with before leaving. Confused and looking for guidance, he built a device to communicate with Kree Empire and roaming in disguise.

Curious to learn more about human behavior, he approaches a girl on street named Annie and starts talking but is soon interrupted by arrival of The Sentry, who is sent here by Osborn. They two collide and Marvel Boy seems to have a tough time dealing with the Golden Guardian but he eventually manages to escape with help from Annie.

He later establishes contact with Kree Supreme Intelligence and is told to become a savior of Earth. He then received a new costume with a set of improved Nega-Bands and dubbed as Protector. When a search party came looking for him, they couldn't sniff him out in any way and Noh-Varr came to secretly meet Annie in an alley.

Back in Avengers Tower, Ms. Marvel saw Sentry arriving while everyone was having a breakfast. In his watchtower, Bob arrives to find his wife Lindy already pointing an alien gun at him and got his head blown off completely. He regenerates back to life right away as Void takes over his body and quickly prevents her from taking her own life.

Robert assumes control over him in time to stop him from doing so while trying to remind their deal of not touching her. Bob tries to hurl himself into sun itself but his body regenerates again and Void takes control. He returns to Earth, hovering over city of Manhattan spreading his dark tendrils all over and causing massive destruction.

Fearing Norman to slip into his Green Goblin persona, his secretary Victoria Hand tries to convince him to see a psychotherapist. She goes to handle a lewd situation regarding Bullseye and Moonstone next when they all see an unearthly darkness slowly engulfing the sky and buildings of New York starts getting wrecked by it.

Suiting up promptly, Osborn tries to reason with Bob pointing out that if he keeps throwing tantrums like this, people who are capable of neutralizing him would surely come after him. Sentry then dials down his temper and Norman sees a terrified Lindy Reynolds looking at them from Watchtower, deducing her to have caused this.

Later that night, he goes to see Lester in his room and tasks him to take care of her in time of his choosing. After one of Cabal's secret meetings goes wrong when Doctor Doom is threatened by Osborn and blasted off by Void. He then unleashes a locust swarm upon them and everyone in Avengers Tower is instructed to evacuate quickly.

Victoria Hand was seeing to lead everyone out while Bullseye managed to fly Lindy on a copter and complete his task. By the time he arrived back, Bob has dealt with Doom by then and asks where his wife was. Hearing that she has committed suicide by jumping off to sea because of being scared of him, Robert immediately flips again.

It took all of Ares and Iron Patriot just to keep him away from Hawkeye before Sentry decides to go over and find her. Victoria sees Bullseye giving a subtle nod to her boss on his way out, which gives her a clear idea of what has just happened.

Dark sorceress Morgana le Fay has been looking all over for Victor von Doom after he betrayed him earlier. When Doom was being escorted back to Latveria by Osborn's men, she attacked them with an army of demons at her side. Report of this attack is received by Osborn and he led his new team of Avengers for their very first mission.

He orders The Sentry to go all-out and he does so by simply tearing her head off, which shocked his teammates. Morgana reappears in a moment, causing Sentry to suddenly explode and she confronted Ares by forcing Venom to violently attack him. She then turned God of War into stone right before being killed again by new Hawkeye.

Though unable to move in his armor, Doom responds to Norman as he proceeds to carry his ally out of battlefield. Despite his unwillingness to share, he eventually shares his armor interface with Osborn to access his time machine. Together, they go back to Morgana's time and Victor sent her to 1,000,000 BC using a spell unknown even to her.

Going back to present time, Doom revives Ares from his state with a reverse spell but Sentry is presumed dead. On their way back to New York, Victoria Hand informs her boss about Clint Barton going on media to expose him as former Green Goblin. To which, he tells her to arrange an interview with the network to nicely sort things out.

All of a sudden, a blinding flash of light hits them all and they all astoundingly look at a very-much alive Sentry coming to them. Norman approaches and asks him about how he is feeling now since they all saw him die in Latveria. Trying to resonate with Bob and calm him down by talking to him, Osborn even removes his helmet to talk.

Later that day, an Atlantean terrorist group leads an attack in Los Angeles and members of Cabal were called to meet up. Prince Namor is asked to denounce those extremists publicly and help Ozman to capture them. They had a disagreement on how to approach this situation and it causes a troubled side of Osborn's persona to slip.
