Story arc tournament!

Come defend your favorite arc from the Big Two! I have a roster of 16 big arcs/events from DC, and 16 arcs/events from Marvel. Each round, I'll pit one arc against another. You vote for the one you liked better. The first arc to reach 5 votes moves on to the next phase. Easy, right? So come vote for your favorite arcs!

Phase 1, round 1:

The Infinity Gauntlet

VS

Crisis on Infinite Earths

Cool idea.

COIE

Infinity gauntlet

IG

2-1 in IG's favor.

I have a bit of a grudge against that... retcon.... totally based on the fact that it destroyed so much stuff.

so IG.

The Infinity Gauntlet

Infinity Gauntlet

And The Infinity Gauntlet wins and goes on to the next phase!

Phase 1, round 2:

House of M

VS

Final Crisis

Final Crisis

1-0

Did people really vote for IG because COIE reconnected a bunch of stuff? DC's continuity prior to COIE was a complete mess. Them getting Retcon happy afterwards didn't change the fact that it was pretty much needed and a good move at the time

And I think the story was awesome.

Just wondering

Anyway Final Crisis

House of M!

Final Crisis was just confusing.

House of M, because it got rid of most of those filthy mutants.

Final Crisis, it brought back my favorite character. Gosh this is the most biased I've been towards a vote since I've joined this website.

House of M

Final crisis was highly random and VERY hard to follow

My vote goes to house of M

House of M was a gamechanger for the MU and the specter of its boldness still hangs over many Marvel titles. When major derps say comics are stale and repetitive House of M is one of my go to counterexamples.

Long story short House of M has my vote.

Final Crisis

FC.
