	Yeah, I was wondering how long it would take for Normies little alliance to fall apart. Also, looks like Loki's a dude again. Cool. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Loki's been a guy again since Thor #602. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'd be more impressed if they hadn't telegraphed the move since day 1. I hope they at least explain why Doom and Loki undermine something that, even if led by an idiot, makes their jobs far easier. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Easy. Between now and then Norman does something to make their lives harder. Like giving the heroes back their power through his own incompetence, and in order to have to redeem himself Norman goes after Doom and Loki. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	About time. (Reply to this)

	As if Doom would need to PUNCH Norman to deal with him. I guess "Engineering Norman's fall (due to his own hubris, insanity, and token assistance from the Gnomes of Zurich) from 15 issues and 8,000 miles away while drinking something with an umbrella in it" doesn't make for an action-laden cover.

	Didn't Doom just receive a major, major upgrade (including a new purple costume) in Fantastic Four that should put him way out of Osborn's league? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	xdoop 2009-09-16 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	That wasn't a new outfit; it was just the outfit of the apprentice he was pretending to be. Also, that story took place right when Doom was welcomed back into Latveria. There have already been several other stories with Doom taking place after that event. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Like Doom needs an upgrade to make Normie cry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I want to see Normie cry. That will be fun. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	lonewolf23k 2009-09-16 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	That story was just plain horrible, and I hope to god it just gets completely ignored. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, Loki's a dude again. OK...(damn). (Reply to this)

	aaron_bourque 2009-09-16 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, God. Doom better fuck him up or I will be very disappointed. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Oooh, this gon' be goooood. Anyway what a prime example of the principle of "Covers Lie". Just look, Taskmaster is about to pounce on an asgardian god. We all know Tasky would be sitting that battle out. Or at least go after someone smaller. (Reply to this)

Okay, so to break this down. Doom's attacking Norman, obviously. No surprise there, although it's odd that Doom hasn't disabled his armor yet.

Then, is that the Hood is shooting at Norman? Don't know much about the Hood other than there was a lot of fan-hate for him after the whole Tigra thing, so I'll just assume that Doom offered him a puppy or something to turn him against Osborn.

Then, Loki seems to be trying to blast the Hood. This is a little surprising. Wasn't Loki cultivating the Hood as a weapon against Osborn? To the point of repowering him after he got excorsized? What happened there, that he's now defending Norman against the Hood?

And yeah, I see Taskmaster skipping out early on this fight.

	Bendis said the shadowy figure Osborn used to threaten the Cabal back in Secret Invasion: Dark Reign would be revealed in December. Something tells me we'll find out who it is here (it better be Molecule Man). (Reply to this)

	Looks good. I'm always up for watching Doom bring the pain. (Reply to this)
