As of War of Kings where it retconned most of the history previously known of the character. Yup.

The Fraternity of the Raptors(the amulets and armor) are essentially cosmic assassins that have an agenda unknown to the rest of the universe (or the audience), and while their unknown goal may not be evil in and of itself, the actions to attain that goal seem to be.

Assassinating Lilandra (at Razor/DarkHawk's hands), a subliminal phrase in the baby annihilus, manipulating people, and outright taking over the bodies of their host without any consent are all evil actions. We've just never been privy to their agenda to know what their ultimate goal is and what they are trying to direct fate and the universe towards.

This is why it annoys the hell out of me that marvel has done nothing with this story since the beginning of the Thanos Imperitive. All we know is that more amulets are popping up all over the universe, and then bam, Chris Powell is in the hospital and the story is never continued. Yeah, thanks Marvel. You do something extremely badass with a beloved character that could finally make more fans of people, and what do you do? You kick him to the curb with a giant middle finger up to everyone by never touching him since.
