Dark Reign had enjoyable parts, but mentioning it over Annihilation for the 00's in Marvel seems criminal. Even the tie-ins for Annihilation were great, with even the weaker ones being 8/10 or so.
And it gave us a rare sequel that was actually good, with Conquest and it's tie-ins in the same decade. And it required no real setup before reading either, so it's great for new readers. It was basically everything you could ask for in an event.
Plus, Dark Reign loses points for teasing me with one of my dreams: Moonstone permanently replacing Carol. Let's face it, Moonstone is 800 million times more interesting than Danvers.

Goddamnit. You had to pick the absolute worst ones too. 😂
A-Force was terrible and I've thought about re-reading X-Women on my next 'shroom or LSD trip. It might actually make sense then.
I clipped the pic since it stretches my page, but 👆. That scene in Endgame was ridiculous because it undermined their whole point about representation, and showed they didn't really understand the issue at all.
They should have integrated the women into the story organically from the start, rather than disappearing, literally, ALL OF THEM. Then they wouldn't need a poorly executed scene that completely breaks the narrative, and kills the integrity of the heroes too. Every woman suddenly finds a free moment, and totally abandons their male teammates? Every male hero decides to ignore their female teammates during a pretty important skirmish, with not a single one jumping in to help Carol? They all have the same goal and are fighting the same enemy. Why would this moment ever happen in a battle like that?
That's not what inclusivity is. They were supposed to work together, like ****ing heroes would. Not randomly segregate by gender. Clumsy AF writing.
