Title is self explanatory. Forgive me if I forgot anything.

And don't forget to elaborate as to why you chose whatever you did.

I chose "Other", since my favorite crossover (that I've actually read) is 52, which wasn't on the list. I mostly enjoyed 52 most because it focused on a lot of lesser known heroes, instead of the big names like Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, etc. and I enjoyed a lot of the character interactions. It also covered a lot of different stories, my favorite of the bunch being Renee Montoya's rise as the new Question. I absolutely loved the development of her character and friendship with the first Question, and the scene on the mountain where he passes away in front of a distraught Renee is still one of my all time favorite touching moments in comics.

I chose crisis because it is what got me into comics. I have to say that anyone who chooses zero hour has a few screws loose. that was one of the worst peices of trash i ever read.

Better than Countdown to Final Crisis.

@Tunsieon: I am confused about the inclusion of Cosmic Odyessy. It was a four issue, prestige format mini-series, not a crossover.

Anything is better than the entire Final Crisis stories.

I got some issues from Crisis on Infinite Earths, for me those issues have, something, I dn't know, I love it, so I guess is one of my favourite events.

One of my favourite issues come from Blackest Night, but I haven't read the whole event.

And, Does 52 counts as an event?

Crisis on Infinite Earths - unlike some of the events that followed, COIE actually affected the whole of the DC Universe and not just bits of it

People seem to think that, which I don't quite understand. I don't think it is, otherwise I would have put it on the list and voted for it right away.

52. If that doesn't count then I choose Blackest Night, then Final Crisis.

Well, it is listed under the publication history of DC crossover events Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publication_history_of_DC_Comics_crossover_events

Granted, it is Wikipedia, but it's something.

52 if it counts (which it should) but from this list, Final Crisis followed by Blackest Night.

Yeah, but Amazons Attack and The New 52 are both on the there, so it's not exactly a top notch list.
