It tends to run about a year or so behind 'current', but as I don't mind not being bang up to date it's great for me. I did my years of paying $80 a month on my comics. Now I pay less than that a year for Unlimited! I still buy some trades though, and my library actually keeps a good stock. Anyway, back to Unlimited. Major arcs from recent years are featured. Planet Hulk, House of M, Civil War, Secret Invasion, and... Dark Reign! The iPad app is decent too, and they've ironed out most of the early bugs.

Would be nice to go back and re-read some of my favorite titles and see how the artwork has evolved over time. I literally have not picked up a comic book 15 years. Are Jim Lee and Jae Lee still working for Marvel? They were my two favorite artists.
allorin wrote: You can filter by character / team, by title (I.e. ASM vol 4), by creator, and crucially by 'event'. I.e. I just went in and selected 'Civil War', and it lists 101 issues of various titles covering the Civil War arc. Older arcs are represented too (e.g. Secret Wars, Acts of Vengeance) but these are less complete.

Don't know if either of those is still doing Marvel work regularly, to be honest. Jim Lee does wfh now and again, but he's been more DC in recent years.
