Best Marvel Comic You Ever Read?

[Arkady Rossovich]

Marvel has a powerful fanbase with some of the most original characters and elements.So its easy to say,with all the fans and all that they have read.The question is..what is the best or greatest Marvel comic issue,arc or event you ever read.Past or present,the choice is yours.

 

[GNR]

From the top of my head:

Busiek's Marvels
Heinberg's Young Avengers
Bendis and Maleev's Daredevil
Millar's Ultimates 1 and 2
Lobdell's Uncanny X-Men run from back in the 90s which included what was IMO the best X-Men story ever,Fatal Attractions
Brubaker's Captain America

alot of this is recent,I don't tend to backtrack alot into older runs

 

[US Agent]

I don't know man, I'm loving the hell out of Civil War.

 

[CConn]

It's sorta hard to give one definitive answer, as there's so many different ways to write comics. Y'know, a particular storyline could be wrapped up in a single issue or 100 issues. That said, I think the best I can narrow it down is as follows...

Best Single Issue: Giant X-Men #1
Best Arc: The Ultimates
Best Creative Run: Lee/Romita on Amazing Spider-Man

 

[Not Jake]

Bendis & Maleev's Daredevil for me

 

[Phaedrus45]

Well, I'll give you the best single comic I ever read from Marvel. (It's not the best, probably...but, at the time, it had the biggest impact on me. I was wowed.) God Loves, Man Kills.

 

[ShadowBoxing]

Best single issue: Uncanny X-Men 137 "Death of Phoenix" (tied with Giant Sized X-Men #1).
Best Storyline (six issues or more): The Phoenix/Dark Phoenix Saga. X-Men 112-138.
Best Artist/Writer run: Kirby/Lee Fantastic Four. John Byrne Alpha Flight.
Best Supervillain showdown: Amazing Spider-Man 121-122, "The Night Gwen Stacy Died". While I felt Phoenix was far superior in terms of gravity, Spider-Man's revenge on Green Goblin is awesome.
Best Origin Story told: Marvel Comics Presents: Weapon X
Best Writing: DareDevil: Born Again.
Most Cinematic: Ultimates vol. 1 and vol. 2

 

[Norkie]

Well Im young but here is my favorie comic Ive read.

I do like Way on the new Ghost Rider #4

 

[Killswitch]

The collected "Fantastic Four: trial of galactus" by John Byrne....WHOA!!!

People, am I right? Awesome from start to finish? Epic, beautiful...

 

[Kool-Aid]

Avengers dissassembled by The Bendis.

 

[Silvermoth]

My favourite story is still Planet X(New X-men) even though alot of it has been retconned

 

[Wyrminarrd]

Planet Hulk is the best arc I´ve ever read.

Ultimates 1 & 2 have also been great.

The original secret war was great.

 

[roach]

I tend to remember creative runs.....
1)I read Claremont's first run on Uncanny and it was what comic books should be...even today
2)Frank Miller Daredevil
3)Walt Simonson on Thor
4) There were three issues of the FF when they were replaced with Hulk, Spider-man, Ghostrider and Wolverine...drawn by Art Adams which was the most fun I ever had reading a comic

 

[A.J.Rimmer(BSC)]

So far:

Ultimates 1+2
1602
Bendeev: DD
Ult. FF (the one TP with Namor)
Classic Claremont X-men

 

[CaptainCanada]

Single Issue: Astonishing X-Men #14 (Cyclops Disassembled)
Story Arc: "Out of Time/The Winter Soldier" (Captain America #1-9, 11-14)

 

[Doc Destruction]

I don't know man, I'm loving the hell out of Civil War.

I was going to post that the first person to say Civil War gets stabbed, so congratulations!

 

[Doc Destruction]

Avengers dissassembled by The Bendis.

You get stabbed second.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Now that the stabbings are all taken care of:

X-Men vs. the Hellfire Club through the Death of Phoenix.

Spider-Man all the way until 1990.

Marvels.

My single favorite issue is the issue where Spider-Man save the invalid kid from Morbius and then unmasks. I nearly cried, it was THAT good.

 

[Darthphere]

Inhumans by Jenkins and Lee, specifically Inhumans #10.


Since all yuo people pretty much covered the obvious choices.

 

[Max J Power]

Claremont's X-Men
Miller's Daredevil

Classic. Some more recent entries:

Whedon's Astonishing X-Men
Millar's Ultimates/Ultimate X-Men
Straczynski's Spider-Man
Nicieza's X-Men/Cable & Deadpool

Civil War could be on there too, but I have to wait until the end to know.

Joe Kelly Deadpool except the end the end was balls. The guy after him had a better run though I think.

2) Silver Surfer #88
3) Warlock and The Infinity Watch #25
4) Death of Captain Marvel
