I'm wondering why I was tagged for vandalizing the page. I changed the link for the sinister Spider-Man section to the Dark Reign subset, since it currently tries to go to a part of the page labelled "The Sinister Spider-Man" where no such section exists, only the Dark Reign section. I don't see how that's vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.123.36.38 ( talk) 02:00, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
Before another revert happens, I altered the article copy to present tense to match the method of style used in other comic book events such as 52 (comic book) and Countdown to Final Crisis. Hazardous Matt 22:39, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
No! Just because another article looks a certain way doesn't justify an edit. One article could be entirely wrong. That doesn't make it correct. Present tense obviously refers to something taking place in the present. Past tense is simply appropriate in terms of writing this type of article plot.

I'm creating an account tonight to deal with this – that's how bad it is. Atrocious! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.167.112 ( talk) 15:48, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
I hear you on that one. It looks like a 6 year old wrote portions of this article. Timmyfitz161 ( talk) 22:12, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Sorry boys and girls. Crusader has a piece of the Cosmic Cube around his finger and he disappeared, so anyone saying he is dead is just speculating. Timmyfitz161 ( talk) 21:05, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
Although this event is different than say Civil War or House of M, it by no means is special. It is a similar type of event of say Decimation or The Initiative as it is a banner type of event. So I think we should to take out the words "Unlike Marvel's major events of the previous five years" because this event is no different than the other ones which came before it.

In the Dark Reign page it calls the Bucky the second Captain America when he is the at leasted the ninth or tenth Captain America In the main Marvel universe. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.107.203.85 ( talk) 11:54, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
Can someone please shore this thing up? It is like connecting the dots from point to point. Would someone who has been following Dark Reign organize this better, possibly? Possibly set events under the their title? I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong, I'm just saying. But this subject is has great explanation. If I was trying to jump on a title, this tells me enough that it is easier, so thank you. Timmyfitz161 ( talk) 00:59, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
-I can. EDIT: I stated it. Next patrs will be added soon
It would be nice, if someone would not paste every comics previev's text he found to the article - they are inobiective, and untrustwothy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.21.77.40 ( talk) 15:41, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
The poster above me is clearly the one writing the bulk of the text in the plot summary, because the bonkers spelling and grammar inconsistencies are just as poor. Is a spellcheck too much to ask? I'll change everything for the better, but from past experiences editing Marvel titles, I know that if I start cutting the wheat from the chaff the fanboys are going to gun me down and change everything back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.167.112 ( talk) 11:23, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
I'm in the process of re-working the whole article but this version is so cruft-filled it's easier to do off-line. Check back in a couple of days (It's taking me so long because there is so much content to edit and play with). -- Cameron Scott ( talk) 11:28, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Well...this has sure made the article more popular... Aidoflight ( talk) 23:04, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
I know this might really border upon speculation, but just a question: is dark reign confirmed to be only a storyline, a limited series? I mean, does it have a definite conclusion to itself, like the Civil War? Aidoflight ( talk) 00:14, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
No. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.21.74.249 ( talk) 19:30, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
Whoever tries to clear almost everything on thuis page is an wandal - please don't do it anymore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.21.71.72 ( talk) 19:39, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
SERIOUSLY< PLEASE STOP CLEARING IT! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tales'es Hood ( talk • contribs) 19:47, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
We just don't write plot summaries of that length, that's why the IP removed it and why I agree with him. Sure people can revert it for a bit but the article will be cleaned up - expanding the plot section is a waste of time as most of that content is going to be wiped sooner or later. -- Cameron Scott ( talk) 19:51, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Ok, but not to a shape, where there's NO SINGLE IMPORTANT INFORMATION about the event. Everything you left are just worthless trashes - it would be better to delete whole article instead! - Tales'es Hood ( talk) 20:00, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Ok, so now there's nothing but the most basic things. If you delete most of the comics series, with the most important one - Dark Avengers - why left New Avengers, that isn't so important, and some untrusthworty announcments from Marvel? Let just seize it all to iformations from first one shot. Also, I will add plot in some other form, more toreliable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tales'es Hood ( talk • contribs) 20:08, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
I'd actually planned to re-write the article off-line but the recent em.. events have forced my hand slightly. I added each of the mini-sections as exemplar - so we write a couple of lines about each and branch off to the main articles? which has already been discussed here and at the comic project. Comments? Cameron Scott ( talk) 20:33, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Hmmm - I thin idea i'd get yesterday woul be better - instead of writting about series, lets write about Norman's allies and enemies, like Hood, Iron Man, Spider-Man or Ares, and add to each other about his or hers actions. It would look like that:
Dr. Doom - Though Osborn helped Victor von Doom in many ways - fries him from the prison, helped regain his kingdom, and saved from Morgan le Fay, Doom has no lolyalty to him. Osborn dosn't know, that he had formed secretly alliances with Namor, Loki and Dracula, hoping, that when Osborn will fall, he will take over the world. Doom's first thought after end of first Cabal meeting was about killing or enslaving all of them in near future. Doom was also the one who almost killed Black Panther, when he rejecter a chair among the Cabal.
And we should add chapter about continuitty and reading order Tales'es Hood ( talk) 11:35, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
It's completely in-universe, we don't write like that. In addition, if we did that for every character involved, we'd end up with same over-detailed plot that we originally had. What happens in the comics is secondary to us, we are more interested in who wrote them, what the critical reaction was, the writer intent, the promotion activity etc etc. -- Cameron Scott ( talk) 12:23, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
I'm afraid that some of the recent attentions are unclear to me:
1) Bendis describes him as a "bastard need for safety" - this quote doesn't seem to make any sense?
2) Compares him to "Paul McCarty" ?????? Who? Is it meant to be paul mccartney? (which still doesn't make any sense)?
3) The hood is a "geed"? what's a geed? -- Cameron Scott ( talk) 14:42, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
^^ Cameron, It's the mad guy with the insane license on spelling and grammar that continues to add close-to-incomprehensible copy. He actually deleted the last comment I made concerning this within the very discussion. The page as it is now is slightly surreal, though – suddenly we're given mini bios on the key players – has has this ever been standard wiki fare? No other comic series or event has been put together like this, and you can't just appease one fanboy if it's inconsistent.... humbug! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.167.112 ( talk) 15:19, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
Dark Reign: Young Avengers is a limited series ... is there a reason it's not in the 'limited series' portion of the article? I'm not entirely sure why it's missing - is there a specific reason? -- A talk/ contribs 02:17, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
I am removing most of the issues listed in here, seeing as just because Norman Osborn is in the book shouldnt imply it is involved as it is somewhat misleading. I will leave the core titles such as Avengers etc. and also the ones with storylines leading into the Siege (comics) crossover or the titles that just came out at Dark Reign, otherwise its gone. By the "not listed" ones means those that simply do not have the "Dark Reign" banner on top of cover. If people wish to revamp the whole system of classifying the Dark Reign tie-ins send me a message, but I ain't doing it on my own and then have everything deleted. I will however be more than happy to sort this out especially now that "Dark Reign" is close to finish. Ermol ( talk) 20:02, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
Just noticed in the list of titles in dark reign you had Hulk volume 4 mislabeled as v2...the one that is in the 600s is v2. v1 lasted 6 issues back in 1962, v2 started when the split book Hulk was in after v1 got renamed Hulk, v3 started in 1999, and v4 is the godawful Red Hulk thing written by Loeb that's up to issue 17 or so by now. v2 and v3 have flip-flopped between the titles "Hulk" and "Incredible Hulk" over the years and so both titles are considered the same thing (like Thor/Mighty Thor, Iron Man/Invincible Iron Man, and Action/Action Comics) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.54.162.208 ( talk) 23:20, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
