[K7P5V]

Todd McFarlane's Spider-man

Totally agree! That first issue is a definite Collector's Item (IMHO):

DeFalco & Frenz’s Thor

The formation of Thor Corps was one of my favorites from that Frenz/DeFalco run:

Len Kaminsky’s Iron Man

The introduction of War Machine was my favorite from the Kaminski run:

[K7P5V]

Silver Surfer

Totally agree. Ron Lim's Marvel Cosmic is legendary (IMHO):

The Spider-Man books up through the Clone Saga. Much of it was good, but went on far too long.

Before Clone Saga, everything about '90s Spidey was great.
But the events were especially memorable, and My Top (2) Two Favorites were...

1. Round Robin: The Sidekick's Revenge!

2. Spirits of Venom!

[K7P5V]

Busiek’s Avengers

Busiek's run on the Avengers is legendary, and always worth re-reading (IMHO):

Ghost Rider & the Midnight Sons books

Next to the Ghost Rider ongoing series,
my favorite book from the Midnight Sons will always be Adam Kubert's Ghost Rider/Blaze: Spirits of Vengeance (1992):

Ka-Zar

The Mark Waid/Andy Kubert run gets all the accolades, but I've always considered the Christopher Priest run an underrated treasure (IMHO):

[Witchfan]

The Silver Surfer as long as Ron Lim drew it
Captain America issues drawn by Ron Lim
John Byrne's Avengers and Avengers West Coast
Peter David's Incredible Hulk up until issue #425
The Amazing Spider-Man when drawn by Todd McFarlane, Eric Larsen, and Mark Bagley
John Byrne's Namor
The first 30 issues of Ghost Rider
The first 40 issues of New Warriors
Doom 2099
Todd McFarlane's Spider-Man
Any issue of X-Men drawn by Jim Lee
Walt Simonson's Fantastic Four
Thunderbolts
Heroes Return Iron Man
The Busiek/Perez Avengers
Kevin Smith's Daredevil relaunch
Devin Grayson's Black Widow

[K7P5V]

Pretty much all of the Heroes Return titles

Agreed. A bit late out of the gate, but the JRJR/Jurgens run on Thor proved itself a real winner (IMHO):

Heroes Return Iron Man

Agreed. The return of adult Tony was truly inspirational (IMHO):

Kevin Smith's Daredevil relaunch

Without a doubt, truly a thrilling experience (IMHO):

I just remembered that X-Men 2099 ran from 1993 to 1996 and I was really fond of that run. (The mention of Ron Lim art on Silver Surfer in that decade reminded me!) Xian, La Lunatica, Meanstreak and Krystalin were my absolute favorite characters, and are right up there with some of the classic X-peeps like Cyclops and Nightcrawler for me!

[Castle]

when I saw this thread the first thing I thought was Age of Apocalypse. that is the most iconic marvel tale of the 90s

[K7P5V]

Dr. Strange

Speaking of 90's Dr. Strange, I always thought Secret Defenders had potential:

Any issue of X-Men drawn by Jim Lee

Agreed. My favorite would be UXM #268 (September, 1990):

The Peter David/Rick Leonardi version of Spidey 2099 will always be the #1 fave title from 2099,
but I always thought Ghost Rider 2099 had potential (if Bachalo had stayed, it might have gone on longer):

Early 90's Marvels were definitely at their peek, including the artists they had at the time. McFarlane, Lee, etc. Ghost Rider was my go to comic at the time, the X-Titles were popular than ever, the into of Professor Hulk, and lots of other great things. It's just that by late 1994, things started taking a turn for the worse with Clone Saga, Heroes Reborn, and way too many character deaths and shock value that made me leave Marvel.

[Anthony W]

I'll take 90s Marvel over current day Marvel. A bad 90s Marvel comic was at least interesting. A bad current day Marvel title is just...bad.

[K7P5V]

Ghost Rider was my go to comic at the time

Me too. 90's Ghost Rider is an all-time favorite.
I'll always remember the '90s as the rise of the anti-hero, and a great example of this would be...

Hearts of Darkness

I'll take 90s Marvel over current day Marvel. A bad 90s Marvel comic was at least interesting. A bad current day Marvel title is just...bad.

A bad comic was at least affordable. Even the good comics today are expensive to follow.
