Bonus points to the Marcos Martin: Spidey looks like he's WEARING tights, not having them magically glued to his skin.

A few carefully considered lines with superb inking make all the difference.

You want to see terrible art? Look out for the recent What-if: House of M issue. Now tell me, are you aware of the woman who is addicted to plastic surgery, such that her face looks pulled back and she has no navel? hmm. Eveyone in the damn comic looks like that. It's horrible. I am seriously considering swearing off such one shots. The writers and artists are B-grade talent that can't get their own series. I swear someone comes up with interesting idea and then just passes them off to the pool of "talent" with no idea.

I really took it to mean she was at the meeting psychically, or at least magically. Only two members of the group who could do that would be Doom or Loki.

@Randallw - I think, after catching up on some previews and news, that it may just be War Machine, as he looks to be in conflict with Tony in Invincible and is teamed (I think) with Ares in the former Director of SHIELD book he took over. Maybe he steps up as the new Iron Patriot?

And yes, the Namor in Dark Reign was terrible. Both the art and writing of him was way off the mark.

And was Emma actually dreaming? I took it as a passage of time and she was having a nightmare / guilt over teaming / not ratting these guys out to Cyclops and everyone else.

The two Avengers teams are from the wraparound cover to "New Avengers #50".

I'm going to speculate that the Iron Patriot is in fact NOT Osborn, because that'd be incredibly obvious; Bendis has said we'll find out who everyone is in the first issue of "Dark Avengers", so I'll keep my fingers crossed.

I think that image of the two Avenger teams is from the free Dark Reign Preview that Marvel released last week.

And I kind of like the snake suit. However, I also like the Power Rangers...

A thousand apologies for going on. I just realised I am working from a Dark Reign special. I just noticed you must have a panel from the Secret Invasion end. the Dark Reign special confused me by having Secret Invasion on the cover. Also the art is not the same as your example.

2008-12-11T20:03:37.852-04:00

oh, Emma Frost is there for the following reason. She askes why she's there, she's not a criminal, and Osborn points out she's the leader of a minority recently weakened,and getting weaker. Doesn't she have a responsibility to work with others to ensure her peoples survival?

Also she's dreaming.

They're the Dark Avengers. The leader is Iron Patriot. Ever since I got my free copy of the previews for Dark Reign I've been wondering who they all are really. Your stuff makers sense, that Osborn (who could be Iron Patriot) replaced the Avengers with the Thunderbolts.

In that Dark Reign special. Namor really doesn't come off well. He looks like some drunk soccer Hooligan who can't think straight and hasn't shaved "Hi, I'm Namor", "Yes, we've met" "huh?". The Hood, whom I'm unfamiliar with, comes off as some nutcase, maybe he is, standing around on the table pointing guns at people, then sticking it in his mouth."I'm thge Hood. Respect my Authoritah, or I'll shoot you. Nuh, I won't do that. But then again...I might"

I was going to thank you for the power ranger nod, but then I realized I possted that comment on another website.
