The era between Avengers Disassembled and Secret Wars is to me Marvel's modern golden age. Hickman managed to pull threads from other excellent stories of the time like Dark Avengers, Annihilation and War of Kings to craft his brilliant story built on the history of FF (Valeria being raised by Doom, Namor's obsession with Sue, Reed's father). This is Hickman's best work in the Marvel U.

mzqamarul great input, thanks!

I agree completely. Hickman’s Secret Wars is the perfect end for the MU I’m much less interested at what has happened since Hickman had left; quality had dropped like a rock with just a couple of exceptions.

I completely agree with your sentiment. I also believe Geoff Johns full time era up until new 52 was the best of modern dc. I call it the Johns era, but wade, Simone, Brubaker, Grant Morrison, Loeb and so many others were pumping out really great stories and events for dc, that ended with the new 52. Marvel was also killing it arguably until marvel now but specifically the time period u cited. 2000- 2011 was the last great era for comics if not one of the best decades.

I was hoping you'd get around to reading these two volumes. Thanks for going through them. I already had somewhat of an idea of some of the major plot points but you pointed out a few I did not know about. The FF will always hold a place in my heart for some of the best tales. I'm still holding out that these volumes (esp. Vol 1) will get a reprinting once Disney starts moving on that franchise (probably not until 2020 or later). Otherwise I might have to just pickup the trades. :-(

so the cover price is either $100 or $125... when they first come out, they are 50% off on instocktrades.com...sometimes they go out of print and start selling for almost double cover price on ebay and amazon.
