First Look: Doctor Doom Vs. Dark Avengers

Things are going to be heating up this December.

Dark Avengers Vs Doctor Doom.  We've seen Doom and Osborn work together in the first issues of Dark Avengers.  It's obvious that dudes like Norman Osborn and Doctor Doom could never stay allies.  Their egos are such that they could never see each other as equals or allow one to be in a position of higher power.  
 
According to Marvel, things between the two will be heating up as Brian Bendis, Michael Lark and David Finch bring us round two.  We know that Dark Reign will be coming to an end soon, could this be part of the Norman and the Dark Avengers' downfall?

Besides being a simply awesome piece of art by David Finch, take a look at Loki.  Looks like he'll be switching genders once again.  That has to be a drag (no pun intended).  Imagine he's just getting used to being a woman.  He would've had to buy a completely new wardrobe.  Now that's useless.  Maybe after this fight he'll have a yard sale in Asgard or something.  It is nice to see Taskmaster getting in on things as well.  What do you think of this picture?

Loki finally getting his male body back is pretty old news by the time I've posted this. I guess no one has been reading Thor. Sadly, the other comics seem to be lagging behind, or the artists just don't care and continue to draw female Loki. Luckily, I guess it will stop across the board by December.
 
Considering Loki is a skilled sorcerer, he probably can just wave his hand at the femme clothing and make it for his male body. I don't see the big deal with this. He was a shapeshifter long before JMS wrote his shoddy run of Thor. To be honest, I hope he jumps the gun and makes everyone look like an idiot in the Cabal, as well as the Dark Avengers.  He better be in it all for the lulz, if anything. That said, Loki did a much better job overseeing an evil group with his acts of Vengeance. The Dark Reign stuff has felt like a faint knockoff of AOV the entire time, just with less villains. Loki got quite a few bigger names in the same room. That's because Loki > Osborne anyday, BABY!

AWESOME artwork!  Very iconic piece of art, if I might say so myself.  I'd love a print of that!
