Best decade for comics

Well, true. It was huge and lasted really long, Siege was basically an extension of it.

Plenty of awesome titles and plenty of ones we haven't even bothered to read.

Still, that was a great time for comic fans. KMC was really active and we were reading tons of books weekly back then.

Now, we're living in a wasteland... fighting a losing battle... even you, Parm, can't put every woke creature, SJW, 100 genders fanatic and sensitive snowflake in your concentration camps.

Why do I think that post is about me 🙁

You're just trying to do the right thing.

Whereas others want to force their wokeness down our throats and make us choke on it.

Dark Reign was great.

Siege was a little rushed maybe, but easy to forgive that since Asgardian retards got assraped there.


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.

[*]A-Force

[*]anything with females and no males, really[/list]


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.

annhilation isn't even that good, annihilation conquest and war of kings are way better as far as space stories

X men second coming was lit AF. Messiah Complex, Messiah War and Second Coming, what a trilogy.

Lol at work. That shit was trash. Blackagar needed a better villian than an upstart summers with mental issues

did you like realm of kings?

For me, Annihilation is the last, truly good, high quality event Marvel has done. Everything since then has ranged from good in parts, to utter trash.

Yes

I also liked the black bolt mini. The inhumans are an untapped resource. Like the eternals or to a lesser degree alpha flight or excalibur

marvel portrays alien races way better than dc, eternals is my favorite alien race (no racist)

dc simplified too much, daxamites and kryptonians are basically the same thing

Yeah, it wasn't fine literature but the Second Coming-era was a wild ride. It was a great, backs-against-the-wall action thriller: high stakes, big plot, badass fights, scary villains, etc. It successfully juggled one of the largest X-casts in history too. Bastion, The Purifiers, Master Mold--At one point, all the mutants were in a dogfight against a city-wide invasion of Nimrod clones, while Earth's other heroes were stuck outside of a forcefield unable to help. That shit was badass. It kept you on the edge of your seat. It may seem weird to people now, since we know what happens, but back then it was tense since so few mutants were left. You didn't really know who would make it out alive, or without getting ****ed up. The body count was pretty outrageous if we factor in all the Post M-Day stuff.

That era also gave us X-Force, which led to Uncanny X-Force(the Remender one), and Uncanny Avengers. Best Deadpool ever. Best Deathlok ever. Best Fantomex ever. Best Archangel ever also turned out to be the best Apocalypse ever(Sorry En Sabah Nur fans, Warren is better. Fact.). Incredible use of multiple AoA characters. Great Wolverine and Psylocke. Incredible X-23. I could go on, but you get it.

Bentley should be happy, as those also include the best Kang ever.

It was a gift that kept on giving. 👆

Don't let cdtm's tendrils take hold of you. They distort perception to an absurd degree.

The hot take saying Annihilation is worse than War of Kings and Annihilation Conquest, wow

Annihilation was so good it revived the cosmic brand of Marvel. It also reminds me that Incredible Herc was a pretty cool little book they had going on back then

I know, I'm wonderful like that

I slept with the baby mama from my last job btw

Yup, it was the very first comic I read and I followed it month by month in 2010. It wasn't easy at that time but what a fun ride that was.

I was x men fan first which started my comic reading.

Annihilation was a great read.

nobody gonna ask anything about the baby mama?
