I can't stand crossovers. They are overdone and just plain annoying. First I have to deal with the way Bendis is writing partial stories and them the Avengers are tied up in something else keeping away a story arc. Why do I have to wait one year to get one good story going when they could give me three or four smaller ones and still have content.
Also inclusive title tie ins make me want to get the books even less. I started picking up some Green Lantern books before Blackest Night and then after it was over I got more issues feeling I had missed a lot of the madness but they did the "War of the Rings" bit of bs. Why? It just feeds back on itself and if yiou haven't been reading the title for the last few years you get lost. That is why I don't touch X-books. They always have something like this going on. I know for current readers who get all the books it is a great deal but those who only get a couple titles are either forced to buy more or get part of a story. I buy none because I can only afford so many books a month and I can't afford all the X-books. I have no idea where to start or how the plots go or any of that crap. Hell I hate they way I have to deal with the X-Men right now with my Avengers.
They need to write good stories that are resolved in the title they are in not 3 or 4 others. They need to let crossovers rest for a while. I know DC has said they are not doing it but Court Of Owls and the Culling are both crossovers. Suicide Squad/Resurrection man are crossing and in a month or two my beloved Swamp Thing and Animal Man titles will cross over, well not to upset about that one. The thing is DC said it wouldn't happen for at least a year. All stories were in one book and wrapped up there. Stormwatch stopped that. I was told it was just showing after effects but I didn't buy it then and I bought none of the crossover books.
Screw em! I will buy some new stuff but I love my Silver Age better.
