    Marvel releases a mini that tells us where Harry stands after the events of 
    Dark Reign/Siege, and what happens to the American Son armor.  Personally 
    I'm sort of interested to find out what happened after Dark Reign Spider-Man
    with Harry as things got pretty heavy. going to read it? thoughts?

    @Emperor Gonzo Noir: 
    i know alot of people say there was a retcon online, but note that the same people say they dropped the book and dont read it. there was never a retcon. everything is as it was.
     
    Mephisto casted a worlwide illusion where Peter Parker doesnt remember alot of his past, and
    neither do alot of others (yet some, like Mary Jane,Mr.Negative, and Banner do). so no actual retcon
    ever happened. events that happened still did, and most other characters remember theyre own pasts in
    full. just parts involving Peter Parker are clothed. this is part of why Norman Osborn was able to actually
    change and become sucessful. because while in his heart he remembered a gridge against Spider-man,
    he couldnt remember he was Peter and why he had a deep connecton to him. and ect...

    if you want the opening salvo in this thread sums things up pretty well. 
    better than i could. 
    http://www.newsarama.com/common/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1923
    its really not a bad plot outline when i look at it.
    i remember the reaction to when Spidey first got the black costume and
    comics were done grittier. those were things fans had requested for a long time,
    but then complained about. then the clone stories. people flipped. even when
    he got the Iron Spider armor. ect. people wanted new costumes, Peter and his foes 
    to get upgrades. Peter to have flings with Black Cat. ect, ect. these are all things fans 
    demanded and the formula is nothing new. and fact of things like the Iron Spider, Black
    costume and otherwise is now people revere those stories as great and wish to see those
    things again.  i think BND suffered from alot of weakly written books, but the overall story structure was done right, and most people ignored it that were reading it, then dropped it and missed what was really happening. the current Guantlet stuff is great, and its rearing the end of Mephisto's spell real soon. it will be fun to see Peter deal with the fallout of regaining his memories. thats just my outlook on the thing.

    I want to say I really like Harry Osborn as a character, but wish he would get more. I think he has a lot of potential in comics today and can be a hero to focus on. I might sound crazy, but I really see him being like a Iron Man back in the 70's with technology and daddy issues.

    @TylerLux: 
    i agree with alot of that actually. i think Harry is very good and important character.
    i'm really happy there not just kicking his story from DR under the rug. i wouldnt mind
    him taking up some sort of super mantle permanently.

    The Gauntlet is the main reason I started reading Spidey again, these storys so far have been great!
