Line-wide events
1980s
Secret Wars was the first modern Marvel event where a separate limited series was launched, with other tie-ins following it. After its release, Marvel started having annual crossover events where a miniseries was established for the event, which impacted most Marvel comic books.
1990s
The Infinity Trilogy is a three-event arc about the Infinity Gems. Part 2 (Infinity War) and Part 3 (Infinity Crusade) deal with the fallout of the Infinity Gauntlet: the creation of separate parts of cosmic hero Adam Warlock, Goddess, and Magus.
