Let's hear 'em.
Clone saga with Ben Reilly and Chuck Austen's run on the X-men.
I've heard people do nothing but complain about his run the entire time.I thought Winick's run was popular until now?
The Clone Saga until the ''Is Peter or Ben the real one" Angle?
Also I loved Superman Blue as well. I STARTED reading his comics just for that. It was the only time I found Superman an interesting character.
The giving of Peter organic webshooters. So shoot me.
Not well-known stories are cool. (I loved "Blade: Sins Of The Father", for example) but I'm mainly looking for the former.By unpopular, do you mean generally disliked, or not well known?
Anyway, my first thought was Claremont's second run of Uncanny X-Men. It wasn't nearly as good as his first run and it never felt significant, but it was still pretty good. I don't think it would get so much **** if some new, unknown writer had written the same comics.
I don't know if I'd quite call it unpopular, but I liked The Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire despite its pacing issues.
Kirkman's Ultimate X-Men. Although I haven't read his final arc yet, and I heard it was awful.
Sins Past wasn't that bad. It may have had a horrible retcon, but it wasn't badly written. I love most of JMS' Amazing Spider-Man run (I haven't read Back in Black or One More Day).
I enjoy Brand New Day Spider-Man, but I don't know if it's widely unpopular.

I didn't know Rebirth was unpopular. It was the first Green Lantern book I read and I liked it.Superman blue was better than most people give it credit for (particularly the JLA 'American Dreams' arc). And while we're on the subject of Supes, I really liked 'Up, Up, and Away!' and 'Birthright,' both of which get dumped on all the time.
I've also still got a soft spot for 'Green Lantern: Rebirth' and Spider-Man's Clone Saga.
I agree about Sin's past...it was a beautiful execution of a terrible idea.
How is Knightfall unpopular?
It isn't? My bad.How is Knightfall unpopular?
