Wow, this list really takes me back! As a lifelong Marvel fan, it’s amazing to see all these events in one place. From the cosmic chaos of Annihilation to the emotional weight of Civil War, these storylines have shaped the Marvel Universe in so many ways. If you're diving into them, I highly recommend checking out this Marvel Reading Order guide. It lays everything out clearly, making it easier for both newcomers and longtime fans to follow along. Happy reading!
