Not a traditional versus forum fight, but I was wondering which is the overall better storyline?

Character development, plot, overrall story telling ability, art, etc?

Kingdom Come is about as good it gets.

Really I liked the xmen story a tad bit better, it gave me a feeling that there's always a way to fix what has went wrong...plus the characterization to me is the standard for the xmen

Kingdom come.

Care to elaborate

Not generally a fan of Wolverine-centric stories, and in general I thought Kingdom Come was better written anyway...

I'm assuming Old Man Logan?

Yea old man Logan had a decent storyline, nice artwork

...no. that book was horrible.

They were both very well written arcs, but Days of Future Past edges Kingdom out for me. I have yet to get that same feeling from any arc that Days of Future Past gave me. Old Man Logan was also well done.

Kingdom, but it's close.

Yes, I'm serious.

Days of Future Past for me, though KC was a damn well done arc.

Yes actually.figured u were a little bias but I wouldn't call it trash

Biased how?

In terms of how it treated the other X-Men, it was pretty bad I thought.

Prefer Kingdom Come. Especially when you take into account the time when it came out, what was going on in comics..

Kingdom Come was a detailed critique of everything that was wrong with 90s era of comics. Hell, Magog was described as an amalgamation of the 90s.

...no. that book was horrible. I agree. I could have guessed 75% of that storyline. No new ideas.

But, on the other hand, Kingdom Come was, simply put, "Iconic".
There was a sense of Giants returning to Earth.
Lots of tension and menace.

Awesome.

I get chills everytime I read superman's return in KC and captain marvel colliding superman in issue 3. And of course their legendary fight in issue 4.

Kingdom Come for storyline though DoFP was not bad by any means. But the ideas behind Kingdom Come, the morality of the new age heroes and the worldweariness that the older heroes showed really touched me. Also in terms of the artwork why would you put that up for contention... Alex Ross all the way in my book.

So a better comparison would have been earth x?

Probably. But that stuff was way too convoluted and weird.

And the art paled in comparison.

KC was better.

KC
