Norman Osborn
Character » Norman Osborn appears in 2559 issues.
The amoral industrialist Norman Osborn was transformed by an experimental serum into the maniacal Green Goblin, and has endured over the decades as Spider-Man's most dreaded archenemy. Osborn is known for being the killer of Gwen Stacy, the architect of the Clone Saga, and the one-time director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Who Is Norman Osborn's Secret Weapon In Siege?
Remember when we saw the Cabal meet? There was question as to why they would all listen/follow Norman Osborn's orders. He reminded them of his little friend waiting outside. All we got was a glimpse of a shadow.
The speculation has been that he(?) will have the initials "MM." One of the top runners was Molecule Man (who we just saw in Dark Avengers #10). Another name that I've heard thrown around is Miracle Man ( also known as Marvelman, who Marvel recently acquired).
There's also the image to the left that Marvel has posted.
Are you looking forward to SIEGE?
I am so tired of all this stuff. Even DC's ARCs are going on to long. BLackest Night is just going on and on..The superman stuff is getting old. Cap America is just turing dull. The Dark Reign is just bad.
" Wanda would be great, he tracked her down and convinced her to join his side. Though X-Man is coming back in Dark X-Men though I don't think he'd be able to keep people like Loki and Doom in line. "Yeah, Wanda was mentally ill after M-Day, so Norman could have easily convinced her to join.
When you say Miracle Man are you talking about the Mike Moran character?... Because that would pretty intense to see. I heard that Mark Millar was going to tackle a Miracle Man series with McNiven as his follow-up to "Old Man Logan." If that's the case this would be a nice lead-in.
I hope it's Wanda or Mephisto.I can't make out that one guy and everyone else is just going to f#ck the event up.I hope it's someone not shown in that pic.Maybe Sentry.Maybe it's time to bring back the Sentry from WWH.
Sentry is kinda like the freak on a leash while Venom is Norman's bodyguard/attack hound, but think about the last issue of Dark Avengers when Osborn cowarded as Molecule Man talked & taunted him maybe Molecule Man is toying with Norman Osborn because he tried to doublecross him plus he was at the throne seat.

jesus christ if its miracleman this mess will be off the chain. miracle man was no joke at all in the old runs.
and WTH is odin doing there? i kinda hope its odin so i can see the man again..aint the same without him for the thor comic.
" It's X-Man. That's obviously who it is. It only makes sense. "I know who X-man i'm talking about the guy above him.
Wait i just re-read they will have the initials"MM" lmao...this story arc is going to be hilarious and excitin at the same time. boy norman sure is going to get a heavy one backfired on him at the end of it all when the heroes are all standin over lookin at him funny. spidermn will surely have the a laugh.
Odin WTF LOL!?
my guess is that its Miracle Man. It's the only reasonable one. Who else would the invited members of the cabal be afraid of?

You cant compare Dark Reign's "Business as usual... but not" approach to Blackest Night's "Teen-Girl-Zombie-Drama Apocalypse". Well, i guess maybe you can if you're just comparing the length of the event.

It could actually be molecule man but if its marvelman like i said the avengers will have their hands full. i mean all hands FULL! I get the feeling that odin will come back though. not as a villain tho lol
@Niko: I also agree that this is who it is going to be.
That's obviously a jacket and not a cape that the flying person is wearing so it really only leaves X-man as a possibility and I disagree with those who would say he isn't powerful enough to keep the cabal in line.
" @Vance Astro: No, I was saying X-Man is the secret weapon, not the guy you didn't know the name for. "My mistake.
It's not X-man...X-Man is coming back in Dark X-men...If he were Osborn's secret weapon then why would he be fighting one of Osborn's teams
"@Darkcross said:"What about King Hyperion aka Mark Milton "What would King hyperion be doing there? if so there is still a big problem. any who, whoever it is they are someone of immense power who scared steve, tony and thor back into a team so im not complaining. "
True there is no reason he should be there, but an argonite-immune Hyperion would be a significant threat. If the rumors of MM initials are true it would have to be a powerhouse okay with controlling the planet. The teaser does look like an incarnation of X-Man but comic covers have deceived before.

if its mark then i pray for our heroes lol
" @Nobody said:I quite agree." I hope its X-Man. "I hope it's not.There is no reason at all to bring him back. "
Oh, and Wanda being the "Weapon" is ridiculous.
Marvel Man I think, they're looking for a way to bring him into current 616 continuity so this would obviously be the best way to do it.
I'm going Mephisto. I'm going to say Spider-man's choice to save Aunt May allowed events like this nightmare to happen.
Naw, I'd say the Scarlet Witch would make the most sense.
i would be most unhappy if the weapon was xman or wanda since neither are properly bad people and having them as ultimate weapon would seem kind of lame i want someone bad ass
"It's not X-man...X-Man is coming back in Dark X-men...If he were Osborn's secret weapon then why would he be fighting one of Osborn's teams "
I thought it was the Sentry at first (Because let's face it, he could kill EVERYONE if he wanted (Earth-bound characters at least... against guys like Galactus and Thanos, dunno.)) but apparently I was misled.... seems interesting....
" @danhimself said:Maybe they convince him to join Norman."It's not X-man...X-Man is coming back in Dark X-men...If he were Osborn's secret weapon then why would he be fighting one of Osborn's teams ""
" Marvel Man I think, they're looking for a way to bring him into current 616 continuity so this would obviously be the best way to do it. "Marvelman doesn't wear the jacket/cape though, like it looks the person is wearing in this image:
" @Nobody: They could redesign him, I don't see why they couldn't give him a cape. "
