House of X #6 was pretty underwhelming

Solid end to the table setting but hardly a climatic issue

I like the idea Magneto set him up as a cautionary tale

Grabbed the first 5 volumes of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series from Comixology for £2.99 a book!

Added lots of Marvel and DC stuff to my wish list for future sales as well

Comixology have a Spider-Verse sale at the moment, is this the best book to buy out of it?

Signed up to Marvel Unlimited tonight, boy this service has a ton of content :shock:
I’ve started with the ‘Big Time’ arc of Amazing Spider-Man and going to work up to reading Avengers vs X-Men then onto Hickman’s Avengers run.

When I get onto the ‘All New’ reboot, what titles would you guys recommend reading? So far I am looking at reading..

Amazing Spider-Man
All New, All Different Avengers
Uncanny Avengers
All New Guardians of the Galaxy
Invincible Iron-Man
Champions

Any other titles I should read? Are these the important titles to read leading up the events like Standoff, Monsters Unleashed and Civil War 2?

Maker sure you read Hickman's Fantastic Four and Ultimates before Avengers if you haven't already:

Avengers Standoff follows on from Spencer's Captain America run, which follows on from Remender's Cap run if you want to see why Cap is old.

Cool, I’ll add those to my library as well

With the cap stuff, should I read both Falcon-Cap and Steve Rogers stuff?

Also, how about Thor? Any stuff worth reading? Is it required reading before War of the Realms?

If you mean Spencer's Steve Rogers stuff that starts after Standoff IIRC and actually crosses over significantly with Civil War 2 later. Civil war 2 wasn't good though, neither was Secret Empire which ended Spencer's Cap run.


If you want to read War of the Realms (which wasn't great) you'll need to read all of Jason Aaron's Thor stuff but I only actually liked the first God Butcher arc.


Marvel recs from the last twenty years or so:

Remender's Uncanny X-Force then his Uncanny Avengers which picks up some plot threads from it.
Kieron Gillen's Journey into Mystery was a great Loki series.
Ultimate Spider-Man by Bendis. All 15 years or however long it was from Peter to Miles.
Ed Brubaker's Captain America run
Bendis' Daredevil run
Brubaker's Daredevil
Waid's Daredevil
If Immortal Hulk is on Marvel Unlimited definitely read it, it's amazing.

The big old Cosmic Marvel reading list:

I liked the X-Men run by, I think, Joss Whedon.

Sounds like the events are not that great then......I’ll go with your other recommendations and see how I get on.

There are some good events. The Cosmic Marvel events and stuff written by Hickman comes to mind.
