I read the big run of Marvel events straight through to the end of Secret Invasion and - like you - felt tired by the end of it all. I much prefer standalone character stories. I loved Spiderman throughout the 90's and early 2000's with Howard Mackie and J Michael Straczynski's (might have spelt that wrong!) runs but once Spiderman joined the New Avengers, it all went downhill. The 'Sins Past' storyline was such an awful idea!<br /><br />I did actually like Brand New Day because while I agree with you on what made it poor, it DID ditch a load of baggage, especially when the post-Civil War Spidey comics were so depressing and miserable throughout the 'Back in Black' run.<br /><br />Nowadays I tend to go for older early 90's comics such as the '91> Ghostrider run or standalone, lesser known characters such as Shanna the She Devil. I just don't want to get back into modern comics. A lot has changed and I'm honestly more a fan of 70's, 80's and 90's stuff overall.DS90Gamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17483453203193593827noreply@blogger.com
