Siege #1

We all knew Osborn's time in power would never last forever and this seems to be the beginning of the end of Dark Reign. People have complained about Bendis' writing but doesn't disappoint here. 
The story begins with Osborn staging an attack  on the Asgardian Volstagg who is wondering around helping people like Thor but doesn't understand that he is allot stronger than the average person is attacked by the U-Force causing the destruction of Soldier Field as well as parts of Chicago. This gives Osborn the reason he needs to launch an attack on Asgard with an army that consists of Hammer, the Hood's Gang,the Thunder Bolts,the Initiative as well as his own Dark Avengers.The President is angry with Osborn because he didn't give Norman the approval for this and starts to have doubts about him and Loki goes to warn Balder that Osborn is to mad and corrupt to stop and to prepare himself.Osborn tells his avengers that if they succeed they can all go their separate ways.Donald Blake who sees Norman's forces approaching and after thinking about Tony Stark's well being(who is lying in bed beside him recovering from the beating Osborn gave him at the end of worlds most wanted) transforms into Thor and charges straight for Osborn only to be attacked by the Sentry and after a hard battle Thor is defeated and Norman states that he is under arrest with the whole thing being broadcast live on T.V. The issue ends with Steve Rodgers watching the events dressed in his Captain America uniform ready for battle. 
      I give this issue of Siege 4.5 out of 5 stars because Olivier Coiple's art is fantastic and Bendis' writing is very well done but I do have some complaints like to me the story seems rushed jumping from one scene to another very fast and Coiple's scene with Cap at the very end has Cap looking constipated but you should still pick this up if you have been following Dark Reign or want to follow Osborn's downfall
