wow thanks Lyrical. I did not know about this. Ultimate Wolverine vs. Hulk is a comic book miniseries, published by Marvel Comics. It was written by Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof.

As a LOST fan I now have to go buy this mini series.

Uncanny X-Men X-Tinction Agenda

An incredible story and illustrated by Jim Lee who was the man back in the day.

The goal wasn't to turn anyone on to Ultimates

X Men 135: Phoenix eats a star and kills the billions of inhabitants in that start system. This level of destruction by one being was back in the day when blowing up planets was rare, let alone star systems.

This is about the only part I liked about World War Hulk. Its Black Bolt versus the Hulk. The Hulk ends up owning him. Previously, Black Bolt was depicted as ridiculously overpowered and more powerful than the Hulk. In the past, Black Bolt incapacitated the Hulk with one whisper. Black Bolt also knocked out Magneto in one shot (easily penetrating his force field). He has the mutant power to magnify sound; a mere whisper would destroy a mountaint and a yell would destroy a planet. How do they stop him from snoring or talking in his sleep?

That could be Black Bolt: The Skrull though, yes?

Come to think of it, a year later we now know he was a skrull.

Galactus versus the world: This is one of my favorite childhood storylines. I mean, what could be cooler than a skyscraper-tall purple clad deity who needs to eat planets to live? Depending on how recently he has eaten, Earth's mightiest heroes are beneath his notice. Thor and the Hulk would have trouble even being a minor annoyance to him when he's fully fed (but this is different when he hasn't fed in awhile).

I can't really think of much that would fit this bill. We all know nothing in comics is forever - some writer will come along later and undo just about anything. That said, I really enjoyed the Infinity Gauntlet mini-series, very well written. Best "normal" story (outside of such treasures as Watchmen, etc.) was Fall of the Kingpin. Daredevil 296-300. After having the Kingpin utterly ruin his life and just moping around a bit, Daredevil said enough, and actually took his ass down. Certainly one of the most memorable moments to me was the end of that arc. Far less a commercial story than say Death of Superman or any of that crap.

Well while Batman outplaying Darkseid is far more impressive, visually Hulk tearing wolvering in 2 is incredibly badass.

The "Skrull" invasion is by far the most retarded spin-off i could imagine.

Oh ! Hulk defeated everyone, but they were super powered skrulls, with
the same powers as the original heroes, that didnt even know they were skrull.

I mean "fucked up" has it limits, this cant even be described.

So as a comic book nerd who's never actually read any comics, where should one start? Phoenix Saga and work my way through? I'm mostly into Marvel, I should say. I recently bought the Infinity Gauntlet softcover and really enjoyed it. I'd like to pick up some more of those.

Also, is there a better place than Amazon to order these online? Or a good place to download?

Isn't that an oxymoron?

P.S.: Check your PM's, n00bsauce.

I feed my hunger by watching the movies and reading bio's on wikipedia.

Sad.
