Greatest Comic Book Runs Ever

[E]

In TPB it's the books that made up Vol. 1 "Imaginauts" and vol. 2 "Unthinkable". Some FF fans didn't like Unthinkable because of what it did to Dr. Doom - I thought it was brilliant.

It started downhill in "Affirmative Action" where the FF went to Latveria to confiscate Doom's stuff. Great idea, poor execution. "Hereafter" was awful as was everything after it.

He called it.

I noticed something about most of the posters here. You dont take into account the comics of yestarday, dont any of you ever read inferno, or the pheonix saga, how about the coming of galactus, all great stories, but i doubt many of you have ever read them. seriously, some older comics are very good, better than most of todays.

Yeah, but then this is kind of the wrong thread for that. This thread is for the greatest comic book runs ever, and what you're thinking of is greatest comic book stories ever.

Like TOG said earlier....


Ennis on Punisher is absolutely brilliant.

I must agree.

I'd also add Millar on The Authority. Probably my favorite Authority run.

Although the run was only 6 issues, Ellis & Granov on Iron Man was superb.

I've read some. Older stuff has some amazing art (Say Kirby on Galactus) but thewriting just rubs me so very raw... Pheonix Saga was cool, but Inferno? No thanks.

[Hopelessly attempts to remove Sandman from TOG's list... realizes why no one has made him a moderator. Realizes Craig is one..]

I'd add the Tomb of Dracula series and the Roy Thomas-John Buscema Conan to that list: comics that shouldn't have even been on the same rack as most of the 7'0s dribble.
