Norman Osborn is simply crazy. We saw before that Sentry is his "secret weapon." Okay, maybe Sentry isn't his secret weapon, but the Void is. In today's Dark Avengers #15, we get another look at when Doctor Doom and Norman butted heads. Norman uses his 'weapon' against Doom with explosive results.
What makes this more interesting is Norman actually thinking he can control Sentry and the Void. Does that just show how crazy Norman is? Is this going to lead to his downfall?
Norman has maintained his " Dark Reign" since Secret Invasion: Dark Reign, just over a year ago. Now it feels like things are spiraling down rather quickly. First we saw Norman send his Dark Avengers against Asgard. That battle lead to a pretty bad confrontation between Sentry and Ares. What's Norman's latest move to keep his leash on Sentry? Norman sends (an also crazy) Bullseye to kill Sentry's wife, Lindy.
The way I see it, if Bullseye succeeds, it can't be good. There's also the fact that Bullseye has to be pretty whacked in the head to even consider killing Sentry's wife. Sure this incident could push Bob over the edge and bring the Void to full control. Regardless of what kind of serum Norman has, does he really think he can fully control the Void? Controlling Sentry is one thing, trying to control the Void...it's just crazy.
We still have that big noble death coming up. We're supposed to see a death that "[ends] the fight and [gives] birth to a new Heroic Age." It remains to be seen if that death will be Sentry. Sentry has died so many times already. Will we see Sentry take down Norman and thus, end his Dark Reign? Perhaps all the evil geniuses should take note, try to keep your crazy notions in check otherwise your master plans are likely to explode in your face.
