Name your top ten Marvel runs with the name of the comic followed by the writer. Ten points will go to favorites, nine points to second favorite and so on. You don't have to do 10 but you can do up to 10. Just doing Marvel right now. Mine would be.

  1. Uncanny X-Men by Chris Claremont (10 points)
  2. Daredevil by Frank Miller (9 points)
  3. Iron Man by Denny O'Neil (8 points)
  4. Wolverine by Chris Claremont (7 points)
  5. Astonishing X-Men by Joss Whedon (6 points)
  6. The Incredible Hulk by Peter David (5 points)
  7. Amazing Spider-Man by Roger Stern (4 points)
  8. X-Force by Kyle & Yost (3 points)
  9. Fantastic Four by John Byrne (2 points)
  10. New Mutants by Chris Claremont (1 point)

The Marvel Cosmic run from Annihilation through Thanos Imperative is probably in my top five but it covers a bunch of books and events written mostly by Abnett and Lanning as well as Giffen on Annihilation. I didn't include it since it is not a straight run on a book.

I'd need to think more about this for a full list.

  1. Kieron Gillen | Journey into Mystery - Amazing amazing series. Easily my top choice.
  2. Nick Spencer | Superior Foes of Spider-Man - One of the best book marvel's ever made.
  3. Dan Slott | Silver Surfer - Its the SS book I we wanted but didn't know.
  4. Rick Remember | Uncanny X-Force - Super cool and one of the best X-stories in the decade.
  5. David Aja/Matt Fraction | Hawkeye - Amazing and actually had a huge impact on all of the current titles marvel is doing now and eventually the books DC started to put out when Marvel changed all their titles to feel like indie books and just made mainstream comics better.
  6. Johnathan Hickman | Fantastic Four - Got me int the FF it was Incredible.
  7. Gred Pak | Hulk - Is the best Hulk run of all time by miles.
  8. Mark Waid | Daredevil - The run was really good and entertaining and it was something Daredevil really needed even if die hard fans can't accept it. It did so much for DD in terms of rounding out his character.
  9. Greg Rucka | Punisher - I think it was the best Punisher run
  10. Johnathan Hickman | Secret Warriors - The fact almost everyone on this team is now dead is one of the biggest tragedies in comic books. Such a huge waste.

All I would have to add here is Punisher, Elektra, Ghost Rider, Deadpool, Wolverine and Spider-Man. I don't know if I could narrow those volumes down to ten writer's runs.

  1. Captain America - Ed Brubaker
  2. Captain America - Mark Waid
  3. Avengers - Kurt Busiek
  4. Thor - Walt Simonson
  5. Uncanny X-Men - Chris Claremont
  6. Avengers - Roger Stern
  7. Captain America - Mark Gruenwald
  8. Daredevil - Brian Michael Bendis
  9. Ms. Marvel - G. Willow Wilson
  10. Deadpool - Joe Kelly

For many of these writers I could have listed them multiple times for different title, but decide to keep it to just one title per writer to include a wider variety.

I know I forgot some obvious ones, but this is what I thought of off the top of my head.

10 - Uncanny X-Men (Chris Claremont)

9 - Thor (Walt Simonson)

8 - Spider-Man (Gerry Conway)

7 - Spider-Man (Marv Wolfman)

6- Spider-Man (Len Wein)

5- Ultimate Spider-Man (Brian Michael Bendis)

4- Daredevil (Frank Miller)

3 - Fantastic Four (Stan Lee)

2 - Spider-Man (Stan Lee)

1 - Doctor Strange (Jason Aaron) (probably a bit too early for this, but I've loved it so far)

I like old Spider-Man comics, in case you couldn't tell.
