At SDCC Joe Q said Dark Reigns story lines would begin to wrap up around the holidays, and we all know that Norman will eventually go down hard. So who will be the one to strike the final blow? Vote in the poll and give your reasons below.
Here are my top suspects:
Ronin/Clint Barton : New Avengers is the Flagship Marvel title and Clint has become the lead figure in their fight against...
It's gotta be Spider-Man.
Osborn is Peter's Joker... he's Peter's Lex Luthor.
And let's face it... this is the ONLY chance Peter will get to shine in a big company wide event. Peter won't do much during Skrull Invasions. He won't do much against the Annihilation Wave. He won't do much against the Hulk.
But he can be the "big gun" against Osborn. This is the one time the companys ...

Dr. Doom, I hope it is. He definatley has something planned.
That means Dr. Doom: Director of SHIELD/HAMMER!!
If not Doom then Clint Barton, it seems that Marvel is building him up for it.

They're definately building up something with Clint. But it...
No doubts from me that Spider-Man will be the one to take down this "Knight in Dark Armor" since he's Normans favorite target
Though with the current status between this guy and "Iron Man" I really wish for an armored combat and Anthony proves he has the better technology, mind & heart of a hero
spidey is the only one who can actually handle norman and take him down without going all mad and trying to kill him.
however, I believe his power will be usurped by loki. he has an alliance with doom, created the MA to take him down, and now has the hood and syndacite under his thumb. it could very well be Loki's powerplay that dethrones norman
I think Robot Master and Harry Osborn have been waiting the longest. RM works in an “even villains hate Norman” way and Harry works because he arguably deserves revenge on Norman more than anyone (possibly even Spider-Man). Unfortunately Harry doesn’t work because he, like his much less interesting father, shouldn’t be alive in the first place and RM doesn’t work because it’ll just have a lot of ...
Quote: CAP is a symbol and a historical uniter in the MU's version of America though. However they take down Norman -- it'd be a lot simpler a task if they could get public opinion on their side. And right now Norman's got the public. Of course. I'm not trying to say Captain America can't be a asset to ending Dark Reign. I think everyone would should be. If he could get to public, that would make things easier. Though...
Quote: Originally Posted by Syrant Norman isn't really a powerhouse... It seems like all three of them could take him down solo. Three on one sounds like a slaughter. I guess it depends on the situation, though. Norman has an army in his disposal and two teams of super powered people, maybe Thor should join to take Ares down I picture JRjr to do it, I'ma big fan of his work but I hope someone else does it for the sake of those who...

Why can't Spider-Man (or anyone not "big league") save the day? Why do the other heroes all need Captain America to...

Quote: Originally Posted by Freakzeek Why does Spider-man associate "kill Norman" with crazy? It's like he's ignoring the fact that such may be the only way to stop Norman. My word, I'm waiting for the day he takes out Aunt May and the only way to stop him is to put him down. First it was Cap was right, then it'll be Clint was right. I can't ever see Pete killing him if given the choice, it's...
Does anyone think that it would be quite dumb to have all this build up,almost every Marvel book is in Dark Reign,all these stories,and all of this,then it just ends as a Osborn Vs Spider-man? I don't know,sounds a bit uncool to me. But that's just me.
