If Ares hadn't been killed in Siege, what would have been of him in the Heroic age, and would he still be around today?

bump

He'd probably be in limbo, honestly.

A fate worse than death.

Comic book limbo is the one true comic book death

@mr_ingenuity: @arturocalakayvee: Not even a cameo in "I'm An Avenger"?

@waezi2: Whats that?

@arturocalakayvee: Avengers: I am an Avenger II #1 - Avengers: I am an Avenger II

@arturocalakayvee: A series from the beginning of the Heroic Age about different Marvel heroes who either are or were Avengers, like D-Man, Firestar, Justice, the Young Avengers, Jarvis, Stingray and Thing. Nice little read.

Oh right, I remember that now. He MIGHT have been in that but how important was that series as a whole? Not very much, right?

Thanks:D

@arturocalakayvee: True, but still, better than nothing, right?

And then we would at least know if he still counted as an Avenger.

I miss Ares.

He would be in the Thunderbolts. Thats a team that fits him imo.

Rulk, Ares, Ghostrider, Punisher, Elektra, Agent Venom and Deadpool.

@greendevil: What about before Ross' Thunderbolt?

Idk, Hanging out with Skaar would have been cool. Or being and Olympian ambassador in Asgard. The possibilities are endless.

I can't really see him having a place in the "Heroic Age" or any team now. With Thor, Hercules, Hulk and Valkyrie back in the public's good graces any role he had would be already fulfilled. I think being a Dark Avengers would hang over him. There would be distrust with the other heroes. Power wise he contributes nothing that a number of other heroes do not surpass. He has no demonstrated tactical abilities to speak of. He is too much of a loose cannon to be entrusted to a team like Ross' Thunderbolts or the Secret Avengers or nearly any team that requires following orders, team work, and stealth.

At best, I could see a single story where he avenged the death of his son, realized his poor choices once again blew things, and then return to Olympus.
