Joe Quesada Talks About After Dark Reign

What happens next? Another major event?

Where and When will it end?
Where and When will it end?
I do enjoy a well written "event" in comic books.  I just don't think we need them back to back.  The characters should be allowed to be on their own from time to time.  We should be allowed to not have to read a bunch of tie in comics just to see what our favorite characters are doing.

On Joe Quesada's "MyCup o' Joe," the question came up about when would Dark Reign be over and what major event will happen after that.
“Dark Reign” will take us right about to the end of this year. After that, we’ll be stepping back and kind of taking a breath. We have no immediate events planned after that, at least in the Avengers’ corner of the universe.

You may see a few smaller, “Planet Hulk”-sized events, but nothing quite as sweeping as a Civil War or Secret Invasion for a little while. And those will be happening in other parts of the Marvel U. And speaking of Andy Diggle again, Andy will be playing a very, very large part in onesome of these “Planet Hulk”-sized events. At least one of them.

Sounds good to me.  I can live with 'smaller' events.  I just don't need the huge wallet-siphoning events happening non-stop.  But you never know.  I'm sure if the right idea came along, he could change his mind on this.

What's your opinion?  Are you ready for a break at the end of the year with the huge Marvel events?
