Events interfered with storytelling in the individual books.

DC is perilously close to having the same problem.

Captain America and Daredevil are the only books I'm actively following on Marvel right now. - celedhrymandias Mar 1, 18:24
but they've not interfered. They were planned and accounted for. The policy now and for the past 3 years is that... - Remlik Mar 1, 18:22 2
- Except the do interfer. Marvel's events have sucked. And badly. The books that have tied in have sucked, too. - TWuG Mar 1, 18:34 1
  - Sales indicate otherwise. -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 18:38
Ms. Marvel is a joy and X-Factor's last two issues have been the gold standard. -- nm - David Mar 1, 18:14 4
- I don't think I've ever read an X book I've liked even after several tries over a decade. The stuff other people like just leaves me cold. -- nm - TWuG Mar 1, 18:15 3
  - I'm generally with you on this. The Multiple Man character's existential crisis makes it stand out. -- nm - David Mar 1, 18:18 1
    - I love the tweak they did to his powers, the Madrox LS was excellent -- nm - Beaker Mar 1, 18:21
  - this is pretty good, tends to stay out of the rest of the X-Universe. -- nm - Beaker Mar 1, 18:17
