It sure is, but this seems to be a general trend lately.
In Civil War, even if Marvel tried to make both sides look equal (by telling Captain America he isn't American because he doesn't use Myspace ><), the obviously wrong one won. During Secret Invasion the assholes just got replaced by even bigger ones. I just can't shake the feeling that Marvel's editors and such want to be clever and write "realistic", which just means the bad guys are on top.
