    Default What was your favorite "event" - not including COIE?

    I'm particularly interested in the opinions of those who read real-time, rather than much later, but all opinions are welcome. I excluded COIE because I, at least, perceive it at the first, the game-change, the beginning of DC having these kinds of events and so it's weighted heavily. Plus I thought it won in a previous discussion?

    Sinestro Corps War. It wasn't a bloated mess with a dozen different tie-ins, crossovers, and supplement mini's, the characters didn't take a back seat to the plot, there were proper emotional stakes and development instead of a lot of empty bluster that amounted to nothing....if more Events were structured and of the quality of Sinestro Corps War I'd read them a lot more often!

    Legends, War of the Gods, Zero Hour, and the lead up to Infinite Crisis. Infinite Crisis itself was a giant letdown and squandered the excellent build up. But the level of coordination and pacing building up to it was EXQUISITE

    Legends for sure. I mean, we got the Giffen / DeMatteis JLI out of it.

    I should have thought of that one too. IMO, 52 was the last time DC unashamedly celebrated having a long, vast and rich universe of characters.
