Hey guys! I haven't read anything new from Marvel in probably close to 6 or 7 years. Has there been anything in that time that is great that I should check out? Something in the same vein as Brubakers Captain America, Bendis Daredevil? I am even interested in any Marvel events if they are worth while? I heard some good things about Hickmans Xmen books but honestly I am not a huge fan of his work.
Any recommendations are appreciated.

Chip Zdarsky's Daredevil run, also his Life Story, and Spectacular Spider-Man runs.

I'll echo Zdarsky's Daredevil as well as his Spider-Man work.
Immortal Hulk is really good, but I'm not generally a Hulk fan, so your opinion may vary.

Echoing Zdarksy Daredevil. And I think Kelly Thompson's Captain Marvel is excellent. And another underrated series was Dennis Hallums Spider-Woman.
Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

Another vote for Zdarsky's DAREDEVIL. I'd also have to include Ewing's IMMORTAL HULK (although I'm not normally a HULK fan). Zdarsky's INVADERS was also excellent

As someone who is generally bored to death by Jonathan Hickman's work I'll say that his X-Men has made for a very entertaining read. It's a lot to take in, but for me at least my familiarity with the X-Men in general makes it more palatable. More so than his Avengers or Fantastic Four runs, which I had no previous attachment towards.
Continuity, even in a "shared" comics universe is often insignificant if not largely detrimental to the quality of a comic.
