The Avengers Thread! 'Nuff Said

and that video is totally relevant on two levels because Grim Reaper and Wolverine.
Yeah, and after he beat the crap out of all the Avengers, he sacrificed himself to save them like 2 pages later - that's another comic I paid way too much for. This looks like it will be a bigger villain turn for him than that was.
New arm has fake skin yes
Can't believe the same guy wrote both.
Can you spoil Dark avengers 16 for me?
The Dark Avengers are all arrested except for Wolverine who wasn't at the main battle, he kills a few soldiers and escapes in an army car.
Hand is recruited by Cap following the same hiring process that put himself, Stark and Osborn in charge.
Basically it emphasises the retardation of Siege in that Osborn was holding it together and the thing that pretend to be Osborn in Siege acts nothing like Osborn or the Goblin, just a shitty, shitty plot-convenience to get onto the main fight which itself is a plot convenience for everyone to have a big masturbation fest over the tattered papers of the SHRA.
Who's Karl?

LOST
and rock and roll
There really was very little as far as magic goes in the end, here. For being an all powerful being, he was really taken down like a bitch. A pretty, long blonde haired bitch. Siege could have gone for 5 issues, stretched the fight out, and added some mystical crap in there to help take him out.

But was he raised by the demons? And trained to reign as the one (one one)?
I like that theory. But I keep getting this vibe that writers look at situations like Siege and go "Okay, Thor has a movie coming out soon, we have to make him badass in the comics. Lets have him oneshot a super powerful God^10 baddy to do that."
Having Scarlett Witch show up and just "wish" away Void would only happen if she had a movie deal.

I was thinking more like she shows up and he goes after her, and she gets to make a nice little speech about doing harm to the ones who love you (like she did when she went nuts, and like he was doing at the end of Siege), all the while making him vanish, piece by piece. That way, she gets to redeem herself in a small way. Then Phobos shows up for his revenge, and it's revealed that the Void's worst fear is not to exist at all, and Wanda makes it so.
That's what I would have done.

I would have had 'Millar run' Doom show up and simply crush the Void in an epic battle of time and space manipulation. Then he returns to Latveria to continue banging euro bitches.
The worst part is that this was already revealed to be one of the Void's two biggest fears!
My ideal end for Siege would have had Phobos put the fear-whammy on the Void, bringing out his greatest fear, which everyone thinks is going to be the Sentry. Then the dust clears and it's just Bob Reynolds standing there in his pajama pants and slippers, looking super pissed off. Then there's a massive throw-down and patented comic book explosion©, apparently annihilating both Bob and the Void, leaving all the heroes standing around saddened and flabbergasted.
Cut to a beach, where Bob and Lindy are walking hand-in-hand, their corgi running circles around them. Bob looks at Lindy, Lindy at Bob. The back of his head facing the reader, she looks surprised for a moment, forebodingly starts to remark, "Bob, your eyes--" We see his face, Lindy finishes, "They're so blue!"
Bob laughs, diffusing the sense of dread, and remarks, "Come on, let's go home."
The camera pulls back, showing Bob and Lindy walking towards a humble one-story cottage, the Sentry watchtower perched atop it.
DUN DUN DUN.

It's pretty great - better than the events he's written for Marvel.

My only complaint is that a lot of the arcs just sort of end, and are never followed up on. Most of the time the bad guy is caught, not really due to the work of the protagonists, but just because it's necessary for the story to end.
But Oeming's art, the rapid-fire dialogue, and characters make it worth it.

Though I may indeed get the first hardcover if it's saves me money overall.
Instocktrades? Just Googled it, and this looks a really good site.
Which arc was this exactly?
[EDIT] By the way, I think Bendis put the first few arcs online for free. Google Daily Powers.
