I have been away from comics for several years now, but I was always a fan of the superhero genre and Marvel more so than DC. A question for those of you that read the current Marvel comics which ones would you recommend me picking up?
The last time I was actively reading comics was before the Civil War event, though I do know the basics of the Civil War storyline. Generally I was a fan of the X-Men, and Spiderman. Though a lot of the X titles I found unreadable. I liked the work that Straczynski did with Spiderman, and I really liked his stand alone series Rising Stars(not Marvel I know). X titles, I likes X-Factor(though I've only read the first 6 or so issues), I liked Exiles at least the first couple of dozen issues. My feeling on the Avengers are fairly neutral, and usually the Hulk or Fantastic 4 annoy the heck out of me.
Basically I would like your suggestions of a few good titles to read that will let me follow the Marvel storyline without being bogged down with all the junk they tend to publish.
