It had a bunch of tie-ins too. Plus a big lead-up in Silver Surfer.
Kinda crazy how popular Chip is here
Incredibly appropriate though.
Marvel will to infinity Gauntlet events.
Where it's just Gauntlet event after Gauntlet event, always, forever.
On the Locke and Key front I won't believe it until I see an actual episode. It was already going to be a show twice and a movie once and those all fell through.
And the stores have to actually buy them too
Infinity Gauntlet
Infinity War
Infinity Crusade
Warlock and the Infinity Watch
Infinity Abyss
Infinity
Infinity Revelation
Infinity Relativity
Infinity Finale
I was more responding to the person I quoted but I would say matters that doom wouldn't have seen what you say happened as a victory.

Greg Liefield had a pretty long line.
It was full of assholes who were creepily leering at my female friend.
Coran Attack!
Greg or Rob
Which is why I put Infinity Gauntlet on there. The question is where it goes in the order of old events they're going to rehash. But yeah, I put it on there because they're definitely going to do it when the movies really start talking Infinity Gauntlet.
I dunno I really enjoyed dark reign, I would be in on dark reign 2
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
fuck me, this is exactly what it will be, isn't it
Then they gave it to hulk who swore a lot about it
He's fighting Peter again in some foreign country at the moment.
Actually this is kinda what Secret Wars Battleworld and Secret Wars Warzones were.
All the events, all playing out in different areas. Civil War, Age of Apocalypse, World War Hulk, Spider-Island, Marvel Zombies, Armor Wars, Age of Ultron, Annihilation Wave, ect ect.
Infinitwo Gauntlets
Twonos and the Intwofinite Gauntwos
Kai Leng killed him
The "Marvel isn't telling Spencer to shut up so they have a fall guy when the dust clears on Secret Empire" theory is looking more plausible by the day
This comic cannot be an unpolitical story about nothing in particular AND a super important and challenging story.

I totally agree.
It's not popular opinion, but I'm not of the mind that this is a story that shouldn't be told right now, but I wholeheartedly agree that Spencer has been a moron in his defense of it.
But you know
Not a political story. No relation to current event.
Odin's balls get the fuck off twitter what are you even doing.
Firstly, Alan Moore is a crazy person who is anti-social at best and doesn't give a fuck if people read his stuff. He writes because why not.
Second, Spencer isn't fit to hold Moore's typewriter lid
Third, when Alan Moore played in a shared universe he was incredibly respectful to the core of the characters he used. He wrote complex stories that pushed the characters, but kept them who they were. What ever happened to the man of tomorrow pushed superman to the edge, but he didn't become fucking Lex Luthor or anything. Same with Killing joke.
It doesn't help that a lot of people are taking the most hyperbolic, click-baity reading of things and then playing a game of telephone with them! Bleeding Cool and the like shoulders the bulk of that blame, but a lot of the people in this thread mischaracterize things too. Like the whole "Steve was always a Nazi!" thing, when in reality it was Kobik doing cosmic cube shenanigans to do a retcon.
Minor spoilers for issue 0:
To be fair, "Super important and challenging but not actually, but still it counts but not really!" has been Marvel's mo for like, the past three or four years.
But yes, Spencer should really just delete his account
"Steve was always Hydra" was straight from Marvel, IIRC. I remember us all calling bulkshit on it because we knew they were full of it.
I wish I could say it will be interesting to see how they'll work their way out of it, but, nah, it won't. My money is on Cosmic means to set him back, but that leaves him a product of divine meddling, not the symbol of hope he's been since his inception. Better job of assassinating the character than that one time he was actually assassinated.
Which might have worked ten years ago when the market was a vastly different place (their only major competitor alternating between a couple really good ideas and a whole lot of really, really bad ones, no mcu and effective diversity push to bring in a bunch of new readers, no real digital market since smart phones and tablets weren't ubiquitous yet). But today? It just seems like a real good way to burn up all of your company's goodwill and shit all of over one of your most beloved and important characters for the sake of a really hack story.
It seems like Marvel is trying to be really clever with this, when it's really obvious to even a non reader what is going on
But they're acting like this is how it's always been, this is some big secret etc etc
I guess it makes some sense, because the cyclic nature of events is exhausting
But a story can be good and important and still matter if it's a good story, even if it is not a huge deal forever
