Oh snap.But what about Lucifer and The Authority?
Not AS great, but still great.
Regardless, my comment was more to be a dick than anything, but the facts remain true.

The 90s were the golden age of hacks in comics.

Self-pwnage ftw!

Anyway, I'll take maybe '85-'95, just because I can't find one specific decade (actually, this current decade would likely win that category for me...comics is in a good state right now).
Anyway, that time period gave us Watchmen, Sandman, the original Crisis, Secret Wars, Death's Head II, and ended before most of the X-TREME nonsense (mid-to-late 90's for most titles). Also just before Spidey jumps the shark with the clone saga. Though most of my Death's Head II comics are squarely entrenched in the "massive pecs and guns" time period, and occurred in the early-to-mid 90's. But it works for him more so than most characters.

Most people did. It's not that the titles he listed were awful (except Onslaught), but that none of them were particularly good either. Hell, I could name 4 events in the past 5 years that are better, even with occasional crap like HoM.

The Messiah Complex is far more solid then the Onslaught Saga. And as much fanwanking WWH involved it was still more solid then the Onslaught Saga as was Civil War and most probably Secret Invasion from the looks of things.
I'd place the Onslaught Saga on the same level as House of M.
