I'm hungry for more cosmic comic stories! I need recommendations.
I've always loved the cosmic scene over at DC Comics. I'm a HUGE Green Lantern fan and have been for a very long time. I'm also a big fan of Darkseid and the New Gods. Superman's cosmic stuff has always been great. And I'm one of the only fans of Darkstars. Crisis on Infinite Earths was one of the greatest tales ever told, IMO. And anything involving the DC Multiverse I'm drawn to.
Over at Marvel I'm a big fan of Captain Marvel, Adam Warlock, Quasar, Nova, and Thanos. The Infinity Gauntlet and Infinity War are 2 of my favorite stories of all time. And despite everyone seeming to grumble about it, I REALLY like War of Kings.
So considering all that. What are some great cosmic comics that I'm missing out on? Stories that follow that same sort of grandiose storytelling style of the stuff I mentioned above?

Thought it was AWESOME! A young Thor battling a young (yet still very powerful) Apocalypse in the past! Epic battle issue!
I've never been a big X-Men fan, but I've always been a sucker for Apocalypse related stuff. And I've always been an Avengers fan. So I just couldn't pass this storyline up. And then after you read it, you see that it not only involves Apocalypse, but also Kang the Conqueror! Arguably The Avengers greatest villain!
Can't wait to see what happens next! Between this storyline, The Worlds Colliding storyline over in New Avengers, and Age of Ultron going on; I'm one happy Avengers fan!
Who else read it? What did everyone else think?

I've only read #1 of Uncanny Avengers. The series looks really promising. Remender is a fantastic writer. I also loved seeing Cassaday back on a book. And if Acuna is the fill-in artist, that is an all-star team.
I've been keeping up with the X Books. All-new X-men was a horrible premis in my opinion. But I really enjoy it. I hate to say it, but I like Bendis in this. And as long as Peter David can stay of X-Factor, I am happy. I'm surprised Marvel has left that book alone for so long. The higher ups must have forgot it existed. I just hope it stays that way.
