Poll Comic Book Question of the Week VOTING: Favorite Event in 2013 (360 votes)

Marvel's Age of Ultron 1%
X-Men's Battle of the Atom 4%
Ultimates' Catacylsm 1%
TMNT's City Fall 9%
Batman's Death of the Family 14%
DC's Forever Evil 19%
Valiant's Harbinger Wars 3%
Marvel's Infinity 18%
Deadpool's The Good, The Bad and The Ugly 4%
DC's Trinity War 7%
DC's Villains Month 2%
Green Lantern's Wrath of the First Lantern 2%
Batman's Year Zero 12%
Other (Specify Below) 3%

2014 is just about here, so we thought now would be the perfect time to reflect on this year's most epic events in comics. The Big Two both hit us with quite a few massive stories, but there was also plenty to enjoy with key characters and a couple other publishers, too. We've filled the poll with 13 memorable stories (plus an "other" option) from 2013 and now it's up to you to select your favorite one. After you vote, go ahead and tell us why the storyline earned your love and support. Voting is open for two days, so you have plenty of time to think it through before making your pick.

Will one of these big events earn your vote or did another win you over?

The poll will remain open until Thursday morning (ET). Once it's locked, a new article will go live with the results and more. If you want to go the extra mile, go ahead and get your elaboration on. What exactly is it about the plot that made you appreciate it so much? If your post is awesome enough and about the poll's winning option, we just may highlight it in the updated feature. Check the homepage Thursday to see the results and more!

In the meantime, hope you all have a happy New Year, Viners!

Valiant's Harbinger Wars was easily the best event of the year. It won't get past 10 votes, sadly.

Would Valiant's Unity event/new title be eligible? If so that would definitely get my vote.

It's what Batman's Death of the Family SHOULD have been! The Villain wins, breaks up the family, and sends them packing. Art was awesome, Villain Micro Series Tie In's into the story were also top notch, from Old Hob all the way To Shredder. Hun relationship to another hero, Bebop And Rocksteady, Karai, Alopex... so many characters and somehow they all shined. This one took it for me.

DC's Villain Month is probably the one event I will always want to forget (and I'm a big fan of DC too).

Going with Infinity since it's the only event out of the ones I read that has actually concluded and I have read all of it. For second and third I would say Forever evil and Cataclysm

Geez...this was tough. I like a lot of events this year, except for Age of Ultron.

But, ultimately it came down to two, Infinity and Harbinger Wars. I went with Infinity simply because I am more connected to those characters than the Valiant dudes. But Harbinger Wars is a damn good story.

Age of Ultron, Battle of the Atom and Death of the Family should have no vote. These three events were a disgrace to the comics industry.

Voted Deadpool The good, the bad, and the ugly, even though I don't think of it as an "event". If that's the case, I would have voted other for Thor: GoT Godbutcher/Godbomb.

I am picking Age of Ultron because it's actually the only event I've read this year. With the exception of all the time travel mumbo-jumbo and half of the story not involving battles with Ultron it was pretty good.

I really didn't like the Wrath of The First Lantern story, but that last issue was one of my favorite issues of all time.

Harbinger Wars. What other event had one character continue to fight after the skin of his face had been blown off? And he spewed nanites into his opponent's face during the fight! All captured by beautiful art!

@youngjustice: I'm so glad I didn't end up buying it. Where was Ultron? The last issue was just a conclusion to an Avengers comic that was made over a year previously. What a mess! I enjoyed Infinity though.

I was either going to pick City Fall or Zero Year. I went with City Fall because it was consistently good.

Forever: Evil has been fantastic I have been reading every tie in and really enjoying the sense of scale and total destruction the crime syndicate has unleashed.

@lone_wolf_and_cub: well, Finch's Gritty and Ugly art fitted the storyline considering the fact that it was about supervillains.

I was torn between City Fall and Trinity War.I chose trinity war because it had me shouting on the bus twice, city fall once! I don't think Forever Evil should qualify yet, its barely halfway.

Trinity War for me, simply because I don't count events such as Forever Evil and Zero Year due to still ongoing and I did actually enjoy the story thoroughly. I feel like I'm missing out with City Fall from what everyone seems to be saying.
