Is anyone reading anything really good from Marvel right now?  It's so hard to keep up with the pull lists from four universes (Marvel, IDW, DC, and Boom Power Rangers)

The new X-Titles have been readable except for Fallen Angels. Im trying so hard to care about the characters,  but I just don't.  The concept of Krokoa acting as a homebase is interesting but bringing everyone back from the dead really lowers the stakes and I've always enjoyed X-books much more with smaller casts. There are just too many characters that don't interest me.  Sadly Marvel makes it so you can't shrink your pull list because if you miss a critical issue and you are a few months behind you have to pay 10 times the cover price to catch up 2 months later. That really irritated me with the first appearance of Weapon H a while back.  I settled for a second printing. 

I'd really prefer if they put out half as many titles, but made them very high quality  and great stories that I was excited to get to. It would be easier to not miss issues. Make the universe matter and quit putting a character in 12 different titles on 9 different teams.
