@Katzztar:
stares at state of Marvel comics today
Gods I miss the Marvel comics of my youth. No 10-20 titles for one group (Avengers/X-Men/Spiderman ect) 1-3 was plenty and still be able to follow. There was story continuity between the comics. A writer had to get the ok from the big boss before any big changes, like change a heroine to a villain or killing off someone.
No wonder I no longer feel the need to buy comics every week.
Nostalgia. Those things still happen. Spider-Verse referenced Hickman's Avengers run which also referenced Original Sin, Aaron's run on Thor, and Axis. Hickman has deliberately avoided showing things in his Time Runs Out storyline, which takes place five years in the future, that would spoil other plotlines. There are some continuity issues with Axis, but that's another issue. Though the huge number of some books lets great books fall through the cracks. Yes, I'm also aware that I sound like a huge Marvel fanboy.

@Prismeru:
Man, i am really glad i only read Astro City and Fables from Marvel and DC b:
Why? You're missing out on some great books from both publishers. I haven't been keeping up with them, but I heard Image, Valiant, and IDW are also putting out quality content.

@Kaiolino:
Tom Brevoort himself said in an interview that they become the opposite of the D&D moral alignment spectrum. So from the editor's mouth: good guys become bad and bad guys become good.
That's not true though. If it were that way, Carnage would have gone from Chaotic Evil to Lawful Good, but instead he went from Chaotic Evil to Chaotic Good.
