To note to the comment you commented to (which should be noted was not from Boy Blunder, he was commenting on it as well, I have never understood the judging of people's being fans by what stories they've read, how long they've read or what characters they do or do not know.....if you read and like what you have read and know, you're a fan. What you haven't read and don't know about doesn't devalue that at all - which isn't to say that people can't recommend them to you, just that it's not needed to get all judgemental about it. I'm a 30 year reader of Marvel comics, but that's mainly been X-men and Avengers. Only recently have I gotten into the other corners, Spider-man and Daredevil mostly. So there might be characters and stories that are A list for those corners, that I may not be aware of. It doesn't negate my years of reading other stories.

It's always been on my To-Do list. See i've basically been into the street Characters majority of my years of comic reading. I started in the late 80s, i always been fond of Spider-man and his villians. Other then Wolverine and incredible hulk, i really never read any of the team books.... they just never struck my interest enough. Even to current marvel series i still stick with Amazing, scarlet spider, venom and old man logan. Just my taste i guess.. i recently got into daredevil and moon knight. I think they're both super awesome characters. I still haven't dove into any if their older stuff yet.

However it's known everywhere the claremont era was the best. I never once thought it was bad.
