Awesome thread. I've been craving me some vintage avengers story and am gona use your opinion to make my decision.

Big mistake or wisdom ?! I guess I'll find out later.

If Avengers Foreverer wins, then you're all wankers!

I'm surprised no one's voted for Avengers Forever yet.

It's great but relies too much on the greatness that came before for it to be anyone's favorite.

I know Under Siege gets a lot of love, but I voted fir Korvac.

You obviously love the Korvac saga more b/c Hawkeye's actually in that one.

Should "Ultron Unleashed" be "Ultron Unlimited"?
Unleashed is a reprinting of 57 & 58, The Vision's first two issues and two issues (170 & 171?) from the Korvac Saga. All great issues but not a cohesive "epic"

Unlimited was the "Ultron, we would have words with thee!" story from the Busiek / Perez run.

One of Hawkeye's greatest moments at that!

I don't know if Under Siege makes my top five.
It came out at a low point in my comics reading.

It's just that I barely remember it.

It came out while I was in my second (third?) year of college. Like I said it was a low point in my comics reading. Avengers was probably one of the few Superhero books I was buying at the time and that was mostly out of habit. I think I just skimmed most of them.
I'll get around to rereading it one day, but I'm too cheap to buy stuff I already have and too lazy to dig the issues out.

Well then, you can't judge it till you've read it.

But I didn't judge it.
And I did read it, just don't remember it too well.

Whoever made this a one choice only poll needs to be slapped. :smt102

It all depends on the day of the week which one I put up #1.

If I could lump together Under Siege and Assault on Olympus, I'd have a #1 right away. :-D

But the Avengers Under Siege just blew my mind away.

The Korvac Saga is the other #1. It was just creepy watching Avengers vanish randomly with no idea why.
