Hickman stories got me into buying comics. Hearing about Fan4, Future Foundation and Secret Wars made me realize comics weren't just "hero pounds bad guy" like the often were when I was growing up.

Props for including Secret Warriors, a series that doesn’t get enough love, but it’s a crime there’s no mention of Pax Romana! IMO that’s his best work. If you like his Marvel work, you should read his S.H.I.E.L.D. series. It’s great.

IMO, Hickman has yet to top his own work on Fantastic Four. His Fantastic Four run is sooooo legendary to me. So emotional, so imaginative, so well-written. Love it.

Secret Warriors (Omnibus) is a whale that I hope Marvel solicits a new printing

Patiently waiting for that vol 3 hardcover of East of west next week

Secret Warriors, SHIELD(sooooooooooo good), FF(literally should be the script for the reboot of the movies), and Avengers Run are some of if not my favorite comics. East of West is just….perfect. Pax Romana was great. Even Red Wing. Jonathan Hickman is my favorite writer of all time. When Marvel had him and Rick Remender writing all the big guns…what a time to be alive.

Hickman is amazing. He and Donny Cates are probably the best there are presently...

Secret Warriors. One of the best comics of the last twenty years. Blew my mind. :)

Before starting the video my top 5 are: 5. Black monday 4. Pax romana 3. East of west 2. Hox Pox 1. Secret warriors Now let's see yours lol 💪💪

The Manhattan Projects!

Manhattan projects should have been on here. Maybe nightly news.

Brilliant Mike!! OMG, finally a Hickman video. My Hickman reading was his Infinity TPBs, East of West TPBs and House/Powers of X. And I frikkin loved them. I REALLY NEED the Avengers and Fantastic Four omnibuses.!! Can you use your considerable influential powers to get those omnibuses reprinted?>!! Please? 😁

I’d agree that Hickman’s run of F4 is incredible. It’s my second favorite run of the team and if Marvel is smart they will utilize his run as an inspiration for the movies.

Hey Mike! I like the "western"-ish aspects "East of West" seems to have! I LUV westerns(comics, movies, tv series, u name it!)! Will have to look into that some more! Thanx for the fun video, bro! Hope u guys & ur families are all safe & feeling healthy & happy!😊👍🏻👍🏻❤

East of west is a downright feckin masterpiece..and as you said the Art is fantastic..I urge any comic fan to just get it if you can..all 3 hardcovers are now on Amazon.

My favorite Hickman stories are those left unfinished. Black Monday Murders and The Dying and the Dead are both worth reading even though they'll never be completed. Great lost works.

Hickman really likes to use characters that is just one color palette.

Secret Warriors is just okay for me. You wanna get something underrated by Hickman go with Pax Romana i and Nightly News! You'll have your mind BL🤯WN!

I've read all his non Marvel stuff. Love it. I'll give those Marvel books a shot only if they reprint the Omni's (no way I'm paying a penny more than cover price for any book, specially when I can get them at a discount when they come out /get reprinted). Started buying his X-Men but can't afford to buy all those books and his issues alone weren't a satisfying read. All the big stuff was happening in the other titles. I would have stuck with it if he was writing a focused central storyline.

Nice video. I like the idea of picking a writer like this.

Fantastic Four Hickman is reprinted in Complete Collection trade format last 2018-2019. Basically, it’s gonna be 4 Volumes for the whole run. Vol. 3 is coming in May 2021.

Secret Warriors is the best of the best - but Marvel made him rush the end and his four year plot got compressed into two years. Still, it was awesome because great characters old and new can get killed off brutally. That kind of drama is sorely lacking in the "property" books where the characters have movies- you KNOW they can't be killed off- not for more than a few months at most, anyway.

I have no idea what's keeping Marvel from reprinting his Fantastic Four omni's...leaving money on the table there

Agreed. It would be dope if he does DC stuff.

Just start with his first marvel book and read them across...it reads like a book

Begs the question...is Hickman one of the greatest comic writers of all time ?

Hickman's X-Men does NOT live up to its prelude. After House of X Powers of X it is a downhill, a very steep one.

People reading X-men, are you picking up the dawn of X trades or just the solo x-men trades? Wondering what I should do if I wanted to read this Hickman age of X-men

Hey can u help me. Which one i need to read first? Secret wars or Fantastic 4? I already read avengers& new avengers

I definitely enjoyed Pax Romana.

Can someone tell me... If I read Hickman's two Fantastic 4 omnibus and then his 2 Avengers omnibus that will take me to the Secret Wars omnibus right? Am I missing anything essential to his overall saga?

I'll probably read secret warriors because of agents of shield

Dr squatch?

DC couldn't afford Hickman lmao

0:46 why does this happens some what allot, the illustration cover looking really good, but the illustration of the comic is not really that good???????????????????????????????????????????

Marvel screwed up giving creative control of X-Men to the talentless writers in the X office. Hickman's run will forever be seen as a disappointment now for X-Men when it could have been the greatest.

DC'S a hot mess. Even the editors don't know what is and isn't continuity anymore. Used to love DC, but I give up.

He did the best stuff before the Marvel era
