Indeed it is, phil... Indeed it is.
That kind of shit is why I don't even try to read the majority of Marvel anymore. I only read the few Star Wars titles floating around(because they really are pretty great), and Ultimates...just cuz. Everything else is meh.
Conversely, DC is stepping it up quite a bit. I had almost entirely dropped them as well due to shittiness, but quite a few titles are really coming back strong. 👆

Mighty Thor is decent to well written. Unworthy Thor was excellent until this last book. The ending was shit/anticlimatic
If you don't read Thor what do you read?

I still read a lot more Indie than anything, though.

Honestly, each company excels at something. If you're looking for a more classic formula classic formula with far more grounded heroes, go with Dynamite. If you're looking for your favorite superheroes with some major changes made to their back stories and some flexible morale codes, go with Image. If you're looking for a smaller and more self contained universe with some fairly original characters, go with valiant. If you're looking to read about some of your favorite movie/action figure characters, go with IDW. If you're looking for some truly stellar writing and art about a variety of topics, go with Darkhorse.
