Dark Avengers Vol. 1: Assemble

The Skrull Invasion is over they lost the earth won but it wasn't the heroes who scored the victorious blow to end the invasion.  The Thunderbolts made themselves known & one man was there to reap the reward, Norman Osborn.  This book reads like a Marvel nightmare, Norman Osborn aka the Green Goblin has taken over as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. from Tony Stark.  He has taken over the Avengers & the Fifty State Initiative.  Osborn's first act is to rebrand S.H.I.E.L.D. into H.A.M.M.E.R. while his second act is to fire the majority of personnel & replace them with a selection of former S.H.I.E.L.D. & Hydra agents.  Osborn even rebuilds the Avengers from the ground up since Ms. Marvel refuses to work with Osborn he replaces her with Moonstone, he brings in Venom to stand in for Spider-Man, Daken Akihiro is brought on board to replace Wolverine, Noh-Varr is released from prison to become the new Captain Marvel & Bullseye is standing in for Hawkeye.  All of these additions join the only two members who decided to stay after Osborn took over, Ares & the Sentry. To say this new team of Avengers is scary is an understatement Osborn even goes as far as he can to dress them up like the characters they are supposed to be portraying.  However with all of Osborn's planning the symbolic heart of the Avengers is still missing until Ghost opens up Stark's vault & refurbishes some of the Iron Man suits into Iron Patriot.  All seems to be going well their first mission is a success but when Osborn is in charge you just know he is going to self destruct it is just a matter of time & by the end of this first volume it looks like the first cracks are appearing.
