>>102591443I actually think that Rucka's War Zone mini is the definitive take on this.
The heroes have all been running into him for so much at this point and tried so hard to get him to change his ways (at least the ones that care), that it feels almost pointless to try to and beat it into him, especially now that the Marvel Universe is a lot greyer and there are several Avengers who are cool with killing in dire circumstances.
But, there are lines that can be crossed, and when that line is crossed, the hero community's position will change at a flick of a switch. When they see that Frank killed cops using Peter's webshooters? Yeah, that's a bridge way too far. And so the majority of the hero community will turn against him. Some will be mildly in favor of Frank and avoid joining up with the rest (without stopping them), like Wolverine. Some will try to talk sense into him, like Thor (because he's too powerful and is also a killer).
There are some who will tolerate him or even work together at times, but will generally follow the opinion of the hero community like Black Widow, who hunted him down pretty tenaciously. But Frank managed to escape from her by leading her to more serious and depressing problems that he knew she would find more important, which goes to show that heroes will still have perspective about what their role is supposed to be.
Rosenberg pretty much followed that outline; he had Frank cross a huge line (mass international terrorism and almost setting off a nuke, while wearing Rhodey's armor) and then the hero community got the motivation to move against him. (I think the one character that was out of place was Widow setting him free again after she already pulled a convoluted trick on him, but Rosenberg is writing her with her priorities shifted after she came back from the dead.)
