About this Collection

This collection gathers the 2009-2010 'Dark Reign' storyline for the Mighty Avengers, following Norman Osborn's rise to power after the Secret Invasion. The team, now operating under Osborn's shadow, faces threats both external and internal as heroes like Hank Pym, Jocasta, and the new Wasp navigate a world where villains run the show. Issues collected include Mighty Avengers #21-36, written by Dan Slott and Christos Gage with art by Khoi Pham and others.

In "How I'll Remember You," the Mighty Avengers confront the lingering fallout of the Skrull invasion as Quicksilver returns the terrigen crystals to the Inhumans—claiming he was replaced by a Skrull and absolving himself of past actions. But his daughter Luna, ever perceptive, sees through the truth, leaving the weight of his deception hanging in the air. Written by Christos Gage and Dan Slott, with art by Sean Chen and inks by Mark Morales and Craig Yeung, this emotionally charged issue explores legacy, guilt, and the cost of memory. The cover by Khoi Pham and Danny Miki captures the quiet tension of a moment that will shape the heroes’ future.
