Dark Avengers by Brian Michael Bendis: The Complete Collection

Brian Michael Bendis and Chris Bachalo kick off a tense, morally fractured Marvel saga as Norman Osborn's handpicked team of villains masquerades as Earth's Mightiest Heroes. This 2017 collection reprints the start of a dark era where the line between hero and monster blurs under Osborn's calculated command. A sharp, cynical take on super-team dynamics that set the tone for a pivotal stretch of Marvel storytelling.
