"Siege" Is Coming...

The Siege is coming...

Since the events of Civil War, Secret Invasion, and the still ongoing Dark Reign, Marvel has been chalking up the crossovers like there's no tomorrow. The Marvel Universe hasn't been the same since Captain America died, and in the aftermath of the Skrull Invasion, Norman Osborn has taken over the world (literally) and booted out Tony Stark from S.H.I.E.L.D, converting it into the new organization known as H.A.M.M.E.R. However, the tide is slowly turning back to the heroes favor, with the Avengers reassembling once more and Steve Rogers' return coming to fruition. Still, the bad guys aren't gonna go down without a fight, and Norman's sowing the seeds of conflict that will signal his bid to take over Asgard, the home of the Mighty Thor. This is what "Siege" is all about... the latest conflict that will either bring Osborn and his allies to their knees, or signal the end of the Marvel Heroes as we know them.

With the new event/ crossover still due on January, Newsarama shares a picture from Marvel.com showcasing a new Siege teaser image that could add a new layer of twist to the saga to come.

Ah yes... Cap and Iron Man face to face after such a long time. Yet, with Steve's fresh return and the recent troubles and brain drain Tony has been facing, will this meeting happen, or does this image signify a major change in the Avenger status quo? Only time can tell for sure. Now, we can only speculate and wait...
