Let me tell you everything I know about pizza

What Marvel comics do you suggest for fans who love the history and continuity? It seems it's mostly ignored for what you consider "good stories", however I've always felt a good story can and should have some continuity and be inviting.

Let me turn that around on you: what stories do you believe fulfill that criteria?

Marvels seems like a safe bet.

It’s so hard to add recommendations after that (aside from its sequel (”Eye of the Camera”)

But I can think of Greg Pak’s Incredible Hercules, the fist volume of Agents of Atlas, Peter David’s X-Factor run(s), JMS’s The Twelve, Ed Brubaker’s Captain America, Al Ewing’s Mighty Avengers stuff …

And pretty much anything from the writers I mentioned. 

And on that note, if History is what you’re after, it’s best to avoid Dennis Hopeless and Brain Michael Bendis. I like a lot of what Bendis has writtena nd even like the way he writes dialogue (in moderation), but they share a “force characters into the role I need them to fill” mentality that actively hates their history.  

But that’s just my thoughts on things.
