I've had a terribly difficult time getting into any Marvel titles. I've read Superior Spiderman and a couple X-Men series, and they've been too juvenile for me. What do you recommend, viners?
Marvel
Formerly known by names including "Atlas" and "Timely", Marvel Entertainment is the publisher of comic books featuring iconic characters and teams such as the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, the Avengers, the X-Men, Iron Man, the Hulk, Thor, Captain America and Daredevil. Currently owned by the Walt Disney Company, Marvel is one of the "Big Two" comic publishers along with DC Comics.
Best Marvel titles?
Uncanny Avengers or Hawkeye
Guardians of the Galaxy, New Avengers, Avengers, Captain America.
I don't know what constitutes juvenile, they are comic books.
I was kind of wondering this too since he listed Superior Spider-Man as one of the comics he's reading that's juvenille, and that involves body-stealing, brutality, and spidey killing a villain in the first handful of issues. If that doesn't cut it, he probably won't go for Guardians, even though that's a great title right now. I'm gonna second the Hawkeye suggestion.
Well, my personal favorite title right now is Avengers A.I.
On another note, I don't really understand how you can consider Superior Spider-Man to be a "juvenile" series. I mean, in just the first few issues we saw him brutalize and even murder several villains. We even had a few issues regarding the character Massacre as he slaughtered every person inside a fast-food restaurant. If that's juvenile, then I don't know what constitutes being serious enough for you.

I'm sorry my definition of juvenile doesn't align with yours. I was just innocently asking for suggestions. This is why we can't have nice things.
@austinhasten: Of the Marvel titles that I am reading, my favorite ones that are more mature are Thor, New Avengers, and Secret Avengers.
Young Avengers.
@austinhasten: And we gave you our suggestions. You don't have to get all defensive because we're offering different opinions on a book.
If by juvenile you mean you are looking for more mature books, I would suggest the MAX line of marvel comics. They aren't in main Marvel continuity, but they all contain mature content. There's a long line of Punisher MAX that's definitely worth checking out. There have also been MAX minis of Deadpool, Nick Fury, The Hood, Wolverine, and Fantomex is coming soon.
If you are looking for current Marvel U books I would suggest New Avengers, Uncanny Avengers, Captain America, maybe Thor.
