House Of M or Civil War?

Ha.

Results of HOM better than the results of CW? Never.

CW gave us, in one way or another: The Intiative, Omega Flight, The Order, Immortal Iron Fist (CW capatalized on Bru's use of him as DD), Iredeemable Ant Man, Mighty Avengers, New Avengers.

HoM: Son Of M, Silent War, Messiah Complex, Decimation, Sentinel ONE, the 198.

Doesn't really compare, IMO 😬. (Probably missed a few out, but whatever).

i never said they were better, just that they were good...

Meh, I used to <3 X-Men when I was a nipper, now they don't interest me in the slightest.

🙁.

Not sure whether thats a good thing or a bad thing, nowadays.

depends on what x-comic you read... 😛

IMO, the X universe has gotten too complicated for its own good. That's why I just stick to Astonishing (when it comes out).

Astonishing's the only X book I pick up.

X Factor rocks too much to be called a X book, I've decided.

you'd be right in general, though messiah complex is looking good...

I tried out Brubaker's Uncanny for 6 issues and found it fairly disappointing. Nowhere near as good as his Captain America stuff. That pretty much turned me off of anything X-Men.

Maybe. I don't know anything about Messiah Complex aside from the title.

his uncanny was very, very poor... but i've been reading some of the interviews, and he seems to have his head screwed on right this time... i just hope i'm right...

the last thing x-men needs is for this to bomb...

If it does then back to the drawing board but I dont think there will be major repercussions. Maybe a few fans dropping the title but loyal fans like myself will pick it up regardless. X-men is one of Marvel's flag titles and no matter how bad the stories might be, they aint going anywhere. Just like DC's Superman which has some cool stories but is not all the time and it has lasted this long(668+ issues).

still, i'd rather i enjoyed the monthly x-men titles than felt the strong urge to strangle joe q...

X-factor and Silent War, the only decent things that came out of HoM, and possibly Son of M. Some of the civil war comics where crap, others were good. On average, it was slightly better than house of M.

That would be "Which is better: Annihilation or Infinite Crisis".

Yeah, well obviously you're insane.

Hardly. Annihilation and IC are both flops where most fans are concerned. Especailly the latter. I know very solid DC fans who were almost praying for the end of IC so they could finish their agony.

See, you calling IC a flop, I can live with.

But Annihilation? No.

You're a flop as far as the universe is concerned.

Annihilation was very well received all around and everybody was loving IC until the final issue. Civil War and House of M especially had far more negativity.

Annihilation was just another big cosmic event. Except the big cosmic baddy was...Annihilus. Pathetic.

Oh and there was Thanos. A cosmic title with Thanos? Very original of them. Though they did kill off Thanos. In a crappy way but yeah, they killed him.

Morg's Nullified body magically re-appeared . That was nice too.

Clone Thor.

Nuff said.

Everyone else opinions of it were rather good. Your opinion fails TBH. On Anil anyway.

Big cosmic event? Oh please it was as well done war which got you close to the heroes and made fans of people that weren't before.

Example, Super Skrull before sucked I thought. Now I think hes teh awesome.

Clone Thor.

Nuff said.

I'm not saying CW is better than Annihilatio if that's what you meant.
