I get back to talking about Clue and how I don’t believe in guilty pleasures and then open a pair of 1980s Marvel events that many fans might label as guilty pleasures. Not me. I unabashedly love these all-annuals crossovers.
Want to start from the beginning of this season of videos? Here’s the complete Season 1 playlist of Crushing Comics.
Episode 76 features Evolutionary War Omnibus and Atlantis Omnibus, both of which are covered in my Guide to Marvel Universe Events.
A comprehensive guide to line-wide Marvel Events – including story overviews, characters, issue lists, and how they can be read via omnibuses, hardcovers, and trade paperbacks. Part of Crushing Krisis’s Crushing Comics. Last updated November 2018 with titles scheduled for release through February 2019.
Secret Wars. Inferno. Age of Apocalypse. Civil War. Secret Invasion. Avengers vs. X-Men. When it comes to epic-sized comic book events, Marvel Comics is the all-time champion.

That can make them hard to keep track of, especially at the current rate of one or more events each year. It’s also hard to track down every issue or graphic novel. It’s easy to miss issues or buy the same comic in overlapping collections.
That’s why I created this page – it includes summaries, issue lists, and collection info for every major Marvel event, ever.
