DARK AVENGERS
Dark Avengers is an American comic book series published by Marvel Comics. It is part of a series of titles that have featured various iterations of the superhero team the Avengers. Unusually, the series stars a version of the team that, unknown to the public in its fictional universe, contains several members who are supervillains disguised as established superheroes.
Publication history
The series debuted with issue #1, dated January 2009, as part of a multi-series story arc entitled "
Dark Reign".
[1] In the premiere, writer
Brian Michael Bendis and artist
Mike Deodato[2] (working from a continuity begun in a previous, company-wide story arc, "
Secret Invasion", involving an infiltration of Earth by the shape-shifting alien
Skrulls and that race's eventual defeat) chronicled the aftermath of the U.S. government's disbanding of the federally sanctioned superhero team, the
Avengers. Bendis described the thinking behind the team: "These are bad-ass, hardcore get-it-done types. They'll close the door and take care of business and he's dressing them up to make them something that the people want".
[3] This is in contrast to the changes Osborn is shown making to the
Thunderbolts, where, according to writer
Andy Diggle, he turns that team into "something much more covert and much more lethal: his own personal hit squad".

The series ended with
Dark Avengers #16, at the culmination of the
Siege storyline.
[5]
As of the 175th issue of Thunderbolts it will be retitled Dark Avengers.
Plot
The government assigned the team's redevelopment to
Norman Osborn (the reformed supervillain now calling himself the Iron Patriot) whom the government had previously assigned to head the superhero team the
Thunderbolts and who had become a public hero for his role in repelling the Skrull threat. Osborn, also given leadership of the
espionage agency
S.H.I.E.L.D., reforms that agency into H.A.M.M.E.R. and creates a new Avengers team under its aegis.
