Hi all,
Remember back when 'events' in Marvel or DC MEANT something? I do, and I really don't think an event every year or so, or a 'new' #1 actually deserves all the hype the companies put out.
Examples (not chronological)
Amazons Attacks
Crisis on Infinite Earths
Final Crisis
52/Countdown
Secret Wars (the original), Secret Wars II
Convergence
Blackest Night
Death/Reign of the Supermen
Cap's 'Death' and recovery, and loss of Super Soldier Serum, two 'new' Captain America
Batman's 'Death' and recovery, and memory loss, a 'new' Batman
Original SINS
Ultimate universe and 616 universes mixing in the films and comics now
New 52 and Tim Drake is no longer a Robin
Thor losing his hammer, and/or worthiness to hold and wield Mjolnir, giving rise to Beta Ray Bill, Thunderstrike, the 'red haired' Thor, and now Jane Foster...
Anyone have anymore 'events' that they feel weren't worth the time and money? Don't get me wrong, but I liked a few of the above events, some were 'meh', but I felt a few were just not worth my time/money. Especially when it comes to variant covers!
Are these 'earth' and/or 'universe' changing events, or are they just for a temporary bump in interest and sales while waiting for the new films?
