What happens when the world’s greatest villains masquerade as its most beloved heroes? In this week’s episode of the Major Issues Podcast, the gang dives deep into the first 9 issues of Dark Avengers by Brian Michael Bendis and Mike Deodato Jr.! Spinning out of the events of Secret Invasion, Norman Osborn has been handed the keys to the kingdom—and he wastes no time assembling a twisted version of the Avengers filled with killers, manipulators, and madmen. We break down the deception, power plays, and psychological warfare that make this title a defining chapter of Marvel’s “Dark Reign” era. From Sentry’s instability to Moonstone’s manipulation, and Ares’ reluctant involvement to Osborn’s descent into madness—nothing is off-limits. Join us as we explore what happens when the line between hero and villain is completely shattered!
