Will the truth destroy them from within? Or will that honor go to the Hood and his army of super villains? As a Secret Invasion by the Skrull Empire reveals shocking secrets, the aftermath leaves the team living in the shadows, wanted and hunted by the law — and the former Green Goblin, Norman Osborn, is the law! Not only that, but soon he recruits his own violent crew of Dark Avengers! Steve Rogers makes his triumphant return, but can even he turn the tide and usher the Avengers toward a new Heroic Age? They’ll have to survive the Siege of Asgard first as the end of an era arrives! Plus: Discover how the shadowy group known as the Illuminati shaped the history of the Marvel Universe!

About the author
Brian Michael Bendis
4,414 books2,575 followersA comic book writer and erstwhile artist. He has won critical acclaim (including five Eisner Awards) and is one of the most successful writers working in mainstream comics. For over eight years Bendis’s books have consistently sat in the top five best sellers on the nationwide comic and graphic novel sales charts.
Though he started as a writer and artist of independent noir fiction series, he shot to stardom as a writer of Marvel Comics' superhero books, particularly Ultimate Spider-Man.
Bendis first entered the comic world with the "Jinx" line of crime comics in 1995. This line has spawned the graphic novels Goldfish, Fire, Jinx, Torso (with Marc Andreyko), and Total Sell Out. Bendis is writing the film version of Jinx for Universal Pictures with Oscar-winner Charlize Theron attached to star and produce.
Bendis’s other projects include the Harvey, Eisner, and Eagle Award-nominated Powers (with Michael Avon Oeming) originally from Image Comics, now published by Marvel's new creator-owned imprint Icon Comics, and the Hollywood tell-all Fortune and Glory from Oni Press, both of which received an "A" from Entertainment Weekly.
Bendis is one of the premiere architects of Marvel's "Ultimate" line: comics specifically created for the new generation of comic readers. He has written every issue of Ultimate Spider-Man since its best-selling launch, and has also written for Ultimate Fantastic Four and Ultimate X-Men, as well as every issue of Ultimate Marvel Team-Up, Ultimate Origin and Ultimate Six.
Brian is currently helming a renaissance for Marvel’s AVENGERS franchise by writing both New Avengers and Mighty Avengers along with the successful ‘event’ projects House Of M, Secret War, and this summer’s Secret Invasion.
He has also previously done work on Daredevil, Alias, and The Pulse.

First finished read of 2026, Bendis still firing on all cylinders and excellent artwork from everyone involved. The two omnibuses are excellent encapsulation of Marvel from Civil War to the Heroic Age and the rise of the Avengers back to headline status. The only real things keeping this from being five are the lack of Siege and Secret Invasion's main event series (since they were also written by Bendis and all the key players there are the key players here) and the nightmare that is Secret Invasion: Dark Reign's Namor.

4.5 what a ride, worth reading 6 years worth of different comics and run. Only negative is I don’t get making Steve that at the end but I gotta see where that goes
