Though, leading up to the main event is key in an event's success. Future's End was garbage and there was little to no lead up. Secret Empire has had multiple titles, a crossover mini (Avengers Standoff), and an event (Civil War II). Plus, the point of Secret Empire us to start shocking and depressing but slowly unite the MU. IIRC Future's End ends with nothing changing because that's the future that's "supposed to happen." God, that world was like a poor man's Age of Apocalypse.
I was only there for Batman Beyond's "official" debut in the DC Comics Universe, and when Terry died, that was pretty much the end of my interest. Thankfully, the Batman Beyond series that spun off from Futures End ended with Terry back as the Tomorrow Knight. That aside, very good point about proper lead-up being necessary for these events.
Hmm, makes sense. With the way the X-Men have been treated, it already feels like the world as we know it was just a good dream that ended a long time ago and the nightmare is what's been real all this time.
The spider is always on the hunt.

Interested in reading Daredevil? Not sure what to read next? Why not check out the Daredevil Book Club for some ideas?
OK cool. Thanks. I'm assuming Uprising, United, and Underground are one-shots?
Yep.
Brave New World seems to be a "choosing sides" type story. United seems to be a Cap-side story of ra-ra Hydra, but it also seems to feature Emma Frost leading a team against him. Uprising is hyped as crucial about a gap between three and four. Underground is another book about resisting the Secret Empire.
