I am on Avengers 18 and am reading my favorite team of Avengers. Quicksilver, Captain America, Scarlet Witch, and Hawkeye. Outside The Fantastic Four The Avengers are the best team. I cant wait to read a lot of the stories mentioned here.
This Post Contains No Artificial Intelligence. It Contains No Human Intelligence Either.
Both Avengers books went up in sales in October:
29. Savage Avengers #6- 56,025
41. Avengers #25- 47,791
57. Absolute Carnage Avengers #1- 38,520
72. Savage Avengers Annual- 33,297
What would you guys say are the best issues from the Avengers run of 1963-1996 (#1-402)?
I dunno i think some of the 'newer' issues have been looked over. The comic that made me realize that I actually like Captain America. Avengers Vol 1 #360 "Alternate Visions"
And the finale of the Under Siege story Avengers Vol 1 # 277 "Price of Victory"
Another finale that stayed with me through the years was Avengers vol 1 #347 "Empire's End" (which you did mention)
The issue that summed up the Harras/Epting/Palmer run Avengers Vol 1 #375 "Last Gathering"
I think that particular era of the Avengers is ignored because the 90s as a whole were all a bit, well, blah. But they had some great art (probably my fave art in Avengers history), interesting dynamics between a great team line up and the Gatherers storyline which was epic as all hell.

Add to these:
Avengers #23- Stan Lee's best issue of Avengers. Kookie Quartet vs Kang the Conquerer.
Avengers #47- best issue in the first fifty. After writing Stan Lee's team for a year, Roy Thomas does his own version of "Disassembled" and makes the team his own.
Avengers #57- The introduction of The Vision is the best issue of the first 100.
Avengers #83- The Lady Liberators!
Giant-Sized Avengers #2- Swordsman dies. Mantis is identified as the Celestial Madonna.
Avengers Annual #7- the first part of Final Night, which is continued in Marvel Two-In-One Annual #2,
Any issue from Jim Shooter's first run, Avengers #158-177.
Avengers #187- conclusion of "Nights of Wundagore"
My Top Ten:
01. Avengers #160 ... The Trial
02. Avengers #161 Beware The Ant-Man
03. Avengers #162 The Bride of Ultron
04. Avengers #164 To Fall By Treachery
05. Avengers #165 Hammer of Vengeance!
06. Avengers #166 Day Of The Godslayer!
07. Avengers #77 Heroes For Hire
08. Avengers #170 ...Though Hell Should Bar the Way!
09. Avengers #171 ...Where Angels Fear to Tread
10. Avengers #51 Even An Android Can Cry

Stream Avengers EMH for clear skin and a possible season 3 in the next decade
I think that the 90s were mixed and all over the place for quite of number of titles at the time. If anything, I'm more likely the focus on material from Marvel's first 50 years (1939-1989), though I indeed still manage to have some post-80s favorites here and there.
