I’m not sure that Cleave attacks (and therefore marks) two targets.
The fighter’s Combat Challenge says “Every time you attack an enemy, whether the attack hits or misses, you can choose to mark that target.” The key here is the word “attack”.
The power Cleave says what happens to an adjacent enemy (“ an enemy adjacent to you takes damage equal to your Strength modifier”), but the target of the power is “one creature”. So you are attacking one creature, and an adjacent creature takes damage....I’m not sure that’s an attack, any more than the aura damage from a Kruthic is an attack.
So, the question is: “Does Cleave attack two creatures, or just one?” It looks to me like the answer is: Just One.
