Parker's Red Hulk
The Incredible Hercules
Dwayne McDuffie's New Fantastic Four
Remeder's (Agent) Venom
Slott's Mighty Avengers

Gargoyle was the best comic Marvel put out that year. Gets no love.
The Cockrums' Nightcrawler is fantastic.
Spider-Man/Daredevil: The Usual Suspects.
Slapstick.
The Further Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix is gorgeous, funny, sad, stressful, elegant and hammy.
Dan Slott has a fantastic Golden Age story in the last issue of Midnight Sons Unlimited that nobody talks about.
DeConnick's Avengers Assemble might be one of the greatest Avengers runs of all time.
Devil Dinosaur is a smarter, cooler, and more crafted comic than anyone seems to want to acknowledge. Like Night Nurse, it's written off as a joke by people who never, generally, gave it a chance.
And no one really gives Patsy Walker or Millie comics their due for how often brilliant they were. Particularly early Patsy; wonderfully drawn, funny, sharp stories, great character work, and often beautiful fashion.
Patsy Walker on TV! Patsy Walker in new comics! Patsy Walker in your brain! And Jessica Jones is the new Nancy! (Oh, and read the Comics Cube.)
Dan Slott's Mighty Avengers.

pretty much any video game storyline seems to be forgotten.
Hickman's Secret Warriors was criminally underrated.

Hawkworld! How could I forget Hawkworld. It was fantastic, despite, by editorial mandate, really playing havoc with the Post COIE DCU continuity in general, and Hawkman's in particular.
I also loved Slott's Mighty. The only Avengers for me during Bendis' unberably boring reign.
Peace

Punisher Year One - Abnett & Lanning...the Jane Punisher films borrows a ton from it, but it feels like it gets no respect.....I love Ennis's Punisher the very most, but I think this is one of the very best non-Ennis stories
Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”
Peter Davids Captain Marvel comes to mind.
I loved Fraction's FF (just the FF title, not Fantastic Four) but no one ever mentions it when they bring up his Marvel work.
"It's not whether you win or lose, it's whether I win or lose." - Peter David, on life
"If you can't say anything nice about someone, sit right here by me." - Alice Roosevelt Longworth, on manners
"You're much stronger than you think you are." - Superman, on humankind
All-New, All-Different Marvel Checklist
I'm not sure how well-received it was but I think the Mark Waid/Mike Wieringo run on Fantastic Four was quite good.
