This was a tough one, I went back and forth for a while. I have been loving Marvel Adventures Avengers. It reminds me of some of the very first Avengers stories. I also love Young Avengers (my vote). I find it Incredibly interesting, I love the character development and the plot twists. I am also a fan of Exiles and have been since the first issue, but I am a sucker for the alternate reality and What If stories. I know not everyone likes those.

Oh, and I might think twice about subscribing to the Fantastic Four if the rumors are true.

Spoiler: show
Apparently the team will be replaced for a while due to Civil War, so it will be another foursome for about a year.

By the way, JMS is leaving FF to do Thor.

I don't know how that affects you buyng FF, but just thought you should know.

If the Fantastic Four are being replaced, will the new team be the Mediocre Four?

Ok, I picked Marvel Adv Avengers! Good choice, I think! (I'll be subscibing to a Marvel Comic once every two weeks so I'll get to Exiles and Young Avengers eventually.)

I'm trying something different. I'm subscribing to a different comic every week! I figure I'd drop more than $30 a week at the LCS. So the LCS trips are stopping and eventually I'll be getting 52 comics a month at roughly 30% off , NO shipping and NO pesky Sales Tax! :yay:

Next week I gotta choose a DC book... (I already got my Legion subscription last week)

Late vote for Young Avengers, as it's the only title up there I've read.
My digest for Marvel Adventures: Avengers is ordered though, and I'm quite looking forward to it!

I'd go with Young Avengers, it's a much better Avengers title than New Avengers. I think it's currently on hiatus, but should be back soon.

I want to second Rob's mtion of Thunderbolts. It is a great team book and reminds me of comics when I started buying them.

Only team books? You're missing out by not getting She-Hulk...

I'll eventually be subscribing to 26 Marvel titles and She-Hulk will be one of the first that I get. :)

I love all of the Ultimates books, so Ultimate FF or Ultimate X-Men would be my recommendation.

But that's just me.
