Better to just start over from #1.
I'm not into these erase everything type storylines.
However, before doing so, leave the Marvel Universe with a bang of a final series.

Since the sales of comics are barely a drop in the bucket, I suggest Marvel take its their time with it and have at least 6 months in the can on each title. In the meantime, the Ultimate titles could pick up the slack.

Oh, and hire a new EIC. Perhaps JMS.

Look out for #1. Don't step in #2 either.

Let Chaos Rule.....every title is it's own universe. If a creative team wants to use a character...go ahead.

I'd rather have good stories .... than bad mega-crossovers that (drain my wallet and) drive me crazy with continuity and scheduling problems.

No. But I guess that all depends on the Brand New Day experiment. If it achieves long term success, then a line wide reboot seems a lot more likely to happen.

The only time you should reboot is either when the comic universe itself is long past(i.e., people naturally pass away as time goes on.) or when you did something wrong. Marvel did something wrong....

Marvel won't reboot 30 years of history, nor should they.

Since I haven't read comics in about 20 years, I say sure why not? It would give me a better understanding of why I started to collect statues of men in shiny spandex.
