Well the Civil War storyline has came but it's not really gone. Which is good. A storyline that big shouldn't just come and go that fast. Overall I say Marvel did a bang up job. In my opinion they really breathed life into a BUNCH of titles that have been stagnant for years. Plus created new comics that are must read (Avengers: Initiative anyone?).
Some titles that were excellent were lost in the fold, such as Young Avengers, but they are now picking up those pieces this last month and this week as a matter of fact.
Plus I think Baron Zemo's story should be picked up and he should be a major player again even though he's not in the Thunderbolts anymore. 2 points about that:
1. Zemo had a limited series just recently called Zemo: Born Better. You NEED to read it. Great, great stuff. Even if you're not a fan of Captain America, Thunderbolts, Zemo, etc. Just good writing all around and good art. Might change your mind on the character.
2. Thunderbolts right now is so darn good it really don't need Zemo yet. In fact it wouldn't work in its current inception if Zemo was there because he would never agree to work under those rules.
Everything about the aftermath of the Civil War intrigues me. I just hope that the Secret Invasion doesn't completely undermine it. And I really don't think it will. I think it will just enhance it. It almost seems to me (at least at this point) that Civil War was the greatest crossover event ever and might never be topped.
