Still a fairly nice read though. Spoilers for the AoA comic story My biggest issue with AoA has always been the ending of its main story, they don't go into it a lot for various reasons but I guess that reality's Apocalypse is a lot weaker than most others are because in the end all it takes is Magneto to temporarily end his life. Of course then Apocalypse takes Weapon-X's body and mind as his own and gets Magneto back but that doesn't happen for years and in a different title. Still Apocalypse is a world ending threat, basically the X-Men's Thanos, and most every medium presents him this way but I guess they had to do something to let the good guys get a win in what was a very bleak and dark reality. End Spoilers

It's always been a story i wanted to try out, however when it actually came out back in the day, i saw it but never bit. even through out the years when i have found issues in the dollar bins, flea markets etc, it peaked my interested but yet again, never jumped aboard. as i said in my post to Dr.kain, when im done with my Spider-man Clone saga TPB digital copies, im currently on book 4 of 5. i think i'll jump on it.

the Clone saga was also something i really enjoyed and had some of the actual issues but never completed the entire story. especially how they all intertwined with Amazing,Web of, Spectacular, Spider-Man and i believe it was almost like an entire year event or something for spider-man.
