Here’s the thing…in issue #7 it is clearly Reed Richards handing the formula over to Osborn. To me
#11 ends with Tony breaking down because He’s just been given evidence that He’s been betrayed
by the only other person with that kind of access, or as Reed puts it, “the last person They’d guess
in a million years!.”

They almost certainly could. The main thrust of this series (as well as Civil War proper) has been the very un-Marvel notion that the ends justify the means, but that doesn’t change the fact that Ben and Sally are now part of the conspiracy to cover up illegal acts.

I’m pretty sure the law would prosecute them all equally.

Interesting analysis, although you miss mentioning how Ben and Sally’s willingness to bury the lead on Stark totally betrays any claim they had on journalistic integrity.

In addition, having evidence of these crimes, can’t they be co-indicted for conspiracy when they eventually come to light?

I think they’re making it a plot point. Maybe something about The Sentry’s nature is making him have continuity slips? :)

After all, the “forget me not” spell wasn’t all that long ago, was it?

The biggest problem with this issue was the third account of how the Sentry registered. What is it about this particular character that made his story slip through the continuity checks so frequently during the Civil War?

Wait? Sally is narrow minded and only thinks of herself? From your description of the witch, it sounds like Marvel nailed the vast majority of the American people, no?
