I'm not being ironic. I think that Yea Forums overhyped this book way too much. It starts well, and the Nova stuff is great, but the Super Skrull and Ronan stories are completely irrelevant. And of all things, Drax just sort of one man armies his way through everything to essentially save the day. It wasn't this grand epic that Yea Forums lead me to believe. It just has a good beginning and a great moment with Nova killing Annhilus, but most of it is just pointless.

Annihilation is my favorite comic event, but the Nova stuff is by far it's highlight, it's amazing.
The rest while good, is not as good.

C’mon OP, you could have at least posted Morrison’s New X-Men and we would have believed you.

the super skrull bit was kino

Morrison's X-Men
Ellis' Moon Knight
Lemire's Moon Knight
Miller's work on Batman

>Morrison's X-Men
Yes
>Ellis' Moon Knight
Wouldn't call it a run
>Lemire's Moon Knigh
Lemire's whole career*
>Miller's work on Batman
No (if you ignore DK3)

nick spencers spider-man

Byrne's Superman
and pick any Batman run in the last 25 years.

I thought Spencer's Spider-Man has mixed reception

X-23

Sandman.

Don't get me wrong, it's good.
But is it as good as the hype? Of course not. What could be?

>Lemire's whole career
Only if you ignore his indie career.

Those are peak capeshit though.

welcome to Yea Forums, where jimmies must be rustled.

>Byrne's Superman
Nobody really rates it outside of Byrnefags.
>Any Batman run in the past 25 years
90% of them aren't even rated now. Who remembers Grant's Shadowing the Bat, Moench's, Devin Grayson's or even Brubaker's and Rucka's runs?

>90% of them aren't even rated now.
All of that shit sold near the top of the charts, if not at the top.
Byrne Superman has been held as the gold standard for Superman comics that aren't All-Star's Silver Age nostalgia bomb.

People want to fuck Death

Yea Forums shitting their pants for Rebirth's Green Lantern's run.

>All of that shit sold near the top of the charts, if not at the top.
I'd advise you to check out the sales chart then. Heres a random sales chart I pulled from comic chron, which proves you wrong.
comichron.com/monthlycomicssales/2002/2002-09.html
Also, sales is a stupid indicator for how good a run is considered.
Nobody considers Byrne to be the golden standard of Superman. Superman was the beginning of downfall of Byrne.

>Immortal Hulk
Hulk fighting a different monster every month is not horror, and neither is Hulk growing an extra head. Joe Bennet is the worst choice for the title and Ross's lifeless covers don't evoke anything.

Hickman's Avengers.

New Avengers is fine, but not as much as his fans claim. However, normal Hickman's Avengers sucks.

This is just you being contrarian, it has nothing to do with anything being overrated, my salty Batfag friend.

Nothing will beat Cassaday's art. Its a shame he doesn't do more books

Lemire's Image > Lemires DC and Marvel

>Year One overrated

Hastings' Gwenpool is pure Yea Forumsmblr meme.

Only on Yea Forums, where we hate on everything

Huge Novafag here, and honestly the Super-Skrull mini was my favorite of the buildup minis. The Ronan story definitely felt like filler for the 2nd and 3rd issue though.

Descender is kino.

>Emma frost isnt mostly naked
Dropped

>Tfw even Bendis is a better Xmen writer than Joss Whedon

Damn Batman BTFO. Immortal Cuck proven to be this generation's Swamp Thing.

>their militarized children will have to hold their youth rallies somewhere else
NO X-man should unironically be saying this, especially not her. This is not good writing

Anything by Gaiman, Ennis, Rucka, Spencer and Aaron. Also Astonishing X-Men is peak capeshit

Pheonix Namor was pretty sexy.
Imperius Rex!

Any run that involves Doctor Doom becoming omnipotent.

They are always held as the apex of comic books, and they are always shit.

This obsession of yours is simply amazing.

I want to flavor blast Black Cat's knockers, but I know that has nothing to do with quality

>Byrne Superman
>Gold standard
Literally no actual Superman fans think that.

then maybe you should stop reading them

t. Reed

>Batman
>46,000

Why were the 00's such a perfect time for comics

Jesus Christ, Tommy.

Jesus fucking Christ. Can't you count some dropped pins or something

Grant Morrison's New X-Men. It's hard to think of an uglier comic book.

>hating on Quitely

YIKES

Quietly did like 20% of the run (if that)

Lemire's Vertigo, Top Shelf and DH > Lemire's Image

If anything, sales prove it to be overrated. High sellers are always those dumb comics. The last two were Johns' GL and Snyder's Batman. Think of that as you will.

I've never read Whedon's run, but I did read Bendis's and hoooooooly fuck was it bad. I find it hard to believe Whedon did a worse job.

Oh fuck off, Byrne's run is good just not amazing. People just hate him nowadays here because his fetishes and controversial opinions on pedophilia even though nobody here has any right to judge man's fetishes.

Don't be a fucking faggot and read it then, it's easily one of the best x-men stories to have ever been published

It really does. It's pretty much a side show to the main plot in NA.

Quietly and the guy who did Planet X was based but the other artists weren't very good. Morrison even got Ramos for an arc, and it was gross 2003 Ramos. The run had a great story but like 40% percent of the arc wasn't good

Whedon's run is one of the most praised X-men stories. Also, why the hell did read Bendis X-men. Yea Forums was just edgy, read Astonishing.

I've read many times more posts of you talking about how shit they are than I have of anyone defending the.

>ramos
Don't you mean Bachalo?

Ramos didn't draw it, are you confusing him with Bachelo?

Lemires drawn comics >>> anything else
>Underwater Welder
>Roughneck
>Sweet Tooth
>Essex County
>Secret Path
this is his best work

Quietly can be good, but him and Morrison hated the X-Men and were the worst fits for it. Face it X-Men was the worst thing Quietly ever did

I'm not against reading Whedon's run or anything. I was in college at the time it was being published and dint have any money, so I didnt buy/read comics. When I got back into X-Men comics, buying new stuff regularly, Whedon's run had well passed and I eventually read Bendis's because thats what was new. Thats all.

Also, I got the first volume of the motion comic they put out/adapted from his and just figured I'd watch that and keep getting them as they released... but I think they only adapted the first couple volumes. AND my buddy started buying the trades of it and I figured I'd borrow his, but then he moved away... anyways, its "on the list", but that is slow going these days. I'll get to it eventually. I've been reading some older stuff, slowly but surely. Next on the shelf is Age of Apocalypse, so I can relive my youth.

his whole run had motion comics for them, but honestly just read them.

Also, thinking about it, I was convinced they were actually going to do pic related and have Scott go full magneto. I wanted that soooo badly, and still do (huge fan of when Hal went Parallax and would have loved to see this again via Scott). I keep waiting for it to happen, but it looks like the moment has passed :(

I'll move it up on the list!

Hickman avengers and aaron thor and mark millar's civil war by normalfags

It's good if you lower your standards. It was as generic a superhero comic can get.

>its good if you consider bad shit good
