...does anyone else feel that Marvel pulled that ending out of their a**, strictly for the expressed purpose of "shaking up" the status quo some more? I mean, really? Osbourne? At least with Stark coming into power, there was build up and reason. Norman shows up, pulls a trigger twice, and he's elevated to the top military position?
Epic fail these past two weeks for Marvel and DC.

Honestly, it was like they have been building it forever, and just threw that final issue together.
The skrulls took a back seat to Osbourne, and look measily.

There was heavy suspicion in my area that that's what would happen. Which is a good thing, because I'll be able to save some money on Marvel comics the next year.

I would just like a ing break from crossovers. Just like civil war, and world war hulk, it petered out at the end. Why the is Emma Frost with the villains? I get Namor, but unless I missed something, I don't get why she is there.

^ I wondered that too.. She was part of The Hellfire Club but dunno if that means anything. I thought the final issue was lackluster. Whats gonna happen with Stark? Anyone see another Demon in a bottle episode in the future? Here just for sh|ts and giggles:

they ended it like that to begin the true big event, Dark Reign. i'm glad Osborn is in power and will become Green Goblin again. its about time he suits up again.
Emma Frost is with the villains because she represents the mutant community in the Dark Illuminati. she knows all mutants, and she was a villain for many, many years. even when she was with the X-Men she had her own hidden agendas. she was with a part of the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club, which means that she craves power, which is what can be achieved with the Dark Illuminati. they also needed a powerful well known mutant for the group. Magneto has no powers, Sinister is only after his own goals, same as Exodus, and Emma fits better with the group anyway due to her connections in the mutant world. the group is all about deception right now.

I suppose the Dark Reign one-shot cleared some things up. It still doesn't have me on the edge of my seat for reprocussions.

It does leave things open for ANOTHER crossover though.
