I think Crisis on Infinite Earths is the best, I only read it in graphic novel form(would've only been 3 years old when it came out in comics) and it was an amazing story I thought
also loved Infinite Crisis but I could not get into Final Crisis at all,
was planning to buy Blackest Night graphic novel at some point then I saw there were so many different ones and wasn't sure if I'd need all of them
Enjoying Flashpoint so far and looking forward to the conclusion

My favorite two events are Armageddon 2001 (Summer '91 Annuals) and Zero Hour.

I'll have to go back sometime and reread Armageddon 2001. I'm sure I have most, if not all, of them.
What did you think of the controversy at the time about the writers switching up the identity of Monarch at the last minute because the original identity had been leaked to the fans? At least if I'm remembering correctly.

hmmmm that never really impacted me that much although one of RAs at my dorm asked me who Monarch turned out to be and when I said Hawk he was like "who?"
The thing that always threw me though was what happened to him in JSA
In Zero Hour Monarch becomes Extant and kills Waverider taking his powers and becoming a being of living Chronal energy.
A few years later Al Rothstein (Atom Smasher, formerly Nuklon) tricks Extant and puts him in his (al's) mother's place just before a plabe crashes...an airplane crash shouldn't be able to kill someone made of chronal energy. he should've just up and walked away monumentally annoyed at being tricked and used.
