I would never do that to a longstanding comic universe. It alienates fans and destroys continuity. Don't even mention it, nobody wants that.

Worst case scenario you write some patches that fix things up, fans groan a little, and then you move on with the universe you've spent decades establishing. Why throw it all away because of a few bad events?

I would give the characters permanent and iconic costumes that wouldn't get small changes over time.

Bring back Peter Parker.

Keep the Avengers team under 8 characters.

Keep Spider-Man, Daredevil, Hulk and Wolverine out of Avengers because all of them seem out of place in The Avengers.

Kill off Deadpool, Squirrel Girl and MODOK PERMANENTLY!

I started reading comics with Thor about 2 years ago at the beginning of Fraction's run. Thor is never on earth. he never even had a full story arc on earth as long as I've been reading. As for more Asgardians, I could see that if they relaunched Journey int Mystery, but introducing many of them in Thor's ongoing would just add more characters that few people actually want.

If I had to reboot, I would completely start the X-Men stories all over again. Bring back old Cyclops. And especially, bring back Peter Parker.

My flagship characters would become: Wolverine, Spider-Man, Black Panther, and Black Bolt.

I'd retcon Peter Parker so he never existed and would have that Otto Octavius was always spiderman.

Personally, I like the fact that Marvel has never (to my knowledge) done a complete reboot. I wouldn't reboot it at all.

Ban retcons. They've never worked for DC, there's always glaring holes.

Marvel has better continuity because of soft reboots.

A hard reboot is not only unnecessary, it's just plain stupid.

i wouldnt reboot the 616 U. If anything i would reboot the Ultimate U or make another imprint thats like Elseworlds. You can do a lot of changes while still keeping continuity, publishers just need to step outside the comfort zone sometimes.

You can do that now without a reboot. Marvel doesn't need a reboot, leave that to DC.
