Been seeing all of the advertisements in Previews about Siege and was wondering what the heck it's all about. From what I can understand, it is Norman Osborn's attack on the gods of Asgard...or something crazy like that. The Thunderbolts are crossing over with this "event" so again, I ask, what the heck is SIEGE and why should I care?

If you're buying books online, make sure they ship 'em in a BOX...or you'll be sorry.

The only promotional thing I've seen for it is the Big 3 standing together. Captain America (Steve Rogers), Iron Man, & Thor I have a feeling this is what restores the classic Avengers....would be pretty sweet if they could bring Bruce Banner into the mix.

It's basically a story about Normie wanting to get his hands on Asgard. Siege: Embedded says " The Siege of Asgard has begun! And Norman Osborn and his Dark Avengers are leading the charge! Osborn's savvy use of the media fueled his rise to power-but the very tool's he's been using may turn against him. It's time to expose Norman's true face to the world and uncover the secrets behind the attack on the gods! Witness the changing of the Marvel Universe first hand!" So if your into Avengers or Thor this is a must have.

Oh, and it also says about Dark Avengers #13..." After years of mystery, the secrets of the Sentry are revealed! How deep is his madness and who is really in control of him? What is the limit of his power, if any? And what deadly mystery surrounds him causing mortals and gods to tremble in fear?" This sounds awesome to me.

Like everyone mentioned it's gonna be the return of Cap, Thor, and Iron Man! That alone is going to make for some awesome story telling. Also the heroes are gonna be taking back the Marvel Universe. Loki, Norman, Dr. Doom all involved as well. It should be awesome.
Bring back New X-Men and Immortal Iron Fist!
Is it Wednesday yet?

Yeah, it all started with Dissassembled, and it will end when they Re Assemble. I am really pumped for THE Avengers to be together again.

Well, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna buy the Thunderbolts books. I figure that my LCS will order a freakin' ton of copies and end up blowing them out a few months later in the cheap boxes, so if I really want them, I get 'em then. Of course, all of 'em will be $3.99 (or more) and there are 37 books according to the SIEGE checklist from the Marvel Previews guide, meaning if you buy all of 'em, you will be shelling out $147.63 before tax (or discount).  
If you're buying books online, make sure they ship 'em in a BOX...or you'll be sorry.

I rarely if ever buy every book tied into an event.

Spartan, I find it extremely difficult to concentrate on anything you post. Wonder why?
