I loved Inferno (X-Men storyline) when I first read it several years ago.  In fact, everything from the Phoenix Storyline through Inferno is quite a good read.

In my mind, Inferno would make one mind-blowingly good film, but its so steeped in continuity (which the exists moives are so far off from) that you couldn't expect the uninitiated to really go for it.  It would be like, oh I don't know, starting Star Wars at Episode IV or something...

I've been reading the Fables and Jack of Fables books recently.  Those are pretty entertaining. 

Now that Star Wars Legacy War issue 6 just came out, I can go read those.  I am still sad that this series was cancelled.

I really loved Planet Hulk and was mildly disappointed with World War Hulk.  I didn't keep up with Hulk after that, but semi-recently I decided to get caught up.  The first 12 issues or so of "HULK" (starring Red Hulk) seemed pretty silly, but they actually led up to some stuff that was pretty great in Fall of the Hulks and World War Hulks.

I catch Deadpool from time to time.  He's always good for a laugh.

I'm way behind in Spider-Man.

I also recently read the first 20 or so issues of the latest Cable series.  I really quite enjoyed that.  I'm reading X-Men Second Coming right now.

I'm still really sad/mad that the latest Guardians of the Galaxy and Nova series were cancelled.  I'm hoping they don't stay away long.  Marvel's recent cosmic stuff starting with Annihilation has been really good.

I was really enjoying Green Lantern from Reborn -> the start of Blackest Night.  Can't say I really enjoyed Blackest Night, though I did read almost all of it.  I read Brightest Day 0-8 and determined to give up on it.

I bought a Captain Marvel and Thanos pack of Super Hero Squad guys at Target the other day for $1.  They're on my bookcase at work.  They're pretty sweet.
