Infinity

What are the 2 better events?

Not even top 5

No
Fuck no
What the fuck

just like axis it's just a normal story arc forced into an event
it wasn't good

Ah yes, remember when Hulk used to wear armor? And people say Chulk is retarded.

AoA and Messiah CompleX

I'm really bummed about Axis.

You could pare down almost all of the bloat and make a pretty Uncanny Avengers/X-Force capstone story from it, but there were just too much goddamned bloat.

>>84749838
No. Both subplots were solved with shitty deus ex machinas. That alone is enough to exclude it.

>>84750317
The best two are probably secret wars and the infinity gauntlet.

>>84754915
>secret wars
Which one?

>>84750317
Annihilation?

>>84755145
At LEAST Annihilation, Annihilation: Conquest, Thanos Imperative, Messiah CompleX, Second Coming, and that's just recent good ones, without discussion. OP just needs some good writers in his life.

>>84749838
I still have no idea what it was actually about

Other that the whole gas mutant thing movie rights...

>>84755441
>Imperative
pfft

what are you, a dirty commie

>>84756033
No, despite posting on /co/.
It's the epitome of "nothing happens"

>>84750513
Fucking pleb.

>>84755053
Not the poster but anything but 2 is acceptable

Hickman's entire run turned out to be a massive fucking mess in the end. Terrible pacing, overhyped anticlimaxes.

I don't know if he or Marvel editors(who alledgedly exist) are to blame, but it started crashing and burning during the White Pages Event and culminated in the shitfest of Secret War.

REEEEEEEEEEE

It seems that he was largely responsible. He mentioned something about artist doing good job despite getting scripts very late. Dialogues seem very rushed, so it seems like bad planning and work schedule. Though editors forcing Infinity into event probably didn't help.

>>84757574
Infinity really was a clusterfuck, although secret war was so much worse. Like everything in the latter that mattered happened offscreen, how did he even fuck it up that badly?

>>84750317
Infinity Gauntlet and Annihilation.

>>84756387
>I don't know if he or Marvel editors(who alledgedly exist) are to blame
Doesn't all his stuff drag forever?
Also I heard his payoffs always suck, though I never had the patience to get to them.

>>84761606
>Also I heard his payoffs always suck
Well they sucked on his Avengers, on his New Avengers, on Infinity and on Secret Wars. So based on the most recent evidence that would indeed be the case.

>>84750404
It wasn't really a normal story arc. It had like 3 storyarcs contained within it and I don't think it was decompressed at all. The only bad thing about it is it gave us the Nuhumans which are shit but even still, Hickman introduced the mist cloud in a pretty organic way.

>>84763852
Axis was probably the best Marvel event in a long while, because they just went full retard in an entertaining way and didn't give a fuck. It was so over the top it was basically self-parody.

>>84763762
>Avengers
>New Avengers
The whole illuminati crap was stupid to begin with, whichever ongoing that was on, so not like the payoff could be any good.

>>84755441
Funny how all of those were in the mid 2000s to mid/early 2010s. I think that entire era will be remembered fondly by X-men and cosmic fans. HoM was awful but it led to a lot of good stories.

>>84764093
Also AXIS didn't have any cheap deaths, and the only retarded retcon there was Wanda and Pietro having no relation to Magneto. I'm pretty sure that came down from editorial rather than Remender.

If Marvel didn't shit the bed & make the whole event tie into every title and kept it as an arc like Hickman wanted it'd have been ok

at least we got ewing's black avengers out of it

>>84764811
And to be honest, it was handled really well for what it was. I still hold that it wasn't a retcon, just Wanda going ham on the fabric of reality.

>>84764093
Carnage was great,

>>84761606
Just read Secret Warriors and call it a day.

I'm gonna bump this for potential interest...

>>84775257
what interest?

>>84760234
Infinity War wasn't too bad.

>>84777987
Which one is that again?

>>84778161
Sequel to Infinity Gauntlet- deals with the return of the Magus, his collection of the cosmic cubes, the repercussions of IG on Eternity, and Magus' attempt to get the IG to work again.

It has a sequel called Infinity Crusade but not many people have read it (I have and I recommend it if you want to learn about Adam Warlock's good side).
