Because that shytty story required that every character act like a moron so that Marvel could get to the already decided on ending of Prof. X being dead, Cyclops being a fugitive and the Avengers and X-Men merging.

Your right it was bad writing. I get that you want the x-men and Avengers to fight now that both got super hero arimes but after the x-men had the phoenix non of those guys didn't use any of infinity gems? No one went to look for the ultimate nullifer? Nothin...........

so for those reading New Avengers, does anyone else get the feeling that Hickman is writing the Marvel version of "Crisis on Infinite Earths"? now that the threat has been detailed?

The reaction to that wasn't good....his trademark silver hair. Probably should of been grown out if anything.

naw not really. They know how to stop it but they have destroy a world. More like he is writing the ultimate moral dilemma.

this is true but still, the idea of alternate universes being destroyed?

not saying that's a bad thing on Hickman's part at all. Also would kinda explain the New Universe characters he's using over in Avengers.

he has said in interviews that New Avengers would ultimately be the most important book in the marvel universe. we'll see

earth being destroyed or the universe has been in superhero comics since forever so I don't see it. It is easier to show the severity of the situation by showing a universe that does not matter being destroyed. But Marvel has had multiverse about as long as DC had one. Hell the marvel universe we watch is not even the prime one so they don't really use it as much as DC.

So who's this startbrand dude brehs

Character from the New Universe line that Marvel put out in the late 1980s. The actual "star brand" is a tattoo that gives the person it bonds with conceivably god like powers.
Quasar acquired the star brand in his comic but he gave the power up. I don't know of any appearances in the regular Marvel Universe after that.
