Ultimate Comics - X-men Thread

[Havok83]

The last Ultimate X-men thread got shut down by thread manager and I didnt see a new one open up. I jsut found out they are launching the book this fall, picking up where Ultimate X left off





Interview with writer Nick Spencer

[Generation Lee]

I'm hoping this is better than Ult. X which I had to drop because it made astonishing look like it was published regular. I wanna get back to the Ultimate Unvirse were you think hell this isn't the X-Men.

Is that supposed to be Iceman or Ultimate Silver Surfer?

[Specter313]

Probably Iceman considering the steam coming off him.

[Havok83]

Weird seeing him without a cap or bandana

[joshtylen]

The arts looking good.

any word on Karen Grant, aka Jean being in this? And who's that in the red cloak?

[joshtylen]

Alot of people didn't see Kitty take on the Shroud identity to fight crime on the side. Jean was in the advanced Ultimate X-Men #1 preview so she'll likely appear Wonder who she is meeting with.

[Generation Lee]

A bot disappointed with this issue. Would have liked a bit of an update on Ultimate X & Ultimate Fallout at the start. Although I like how dangerous this new world order seems. Just wish it would have got to the point quicker.

[joshtylen]

I enjoyed it I wouldn't know where to start if I was writing it. Spencer is a long form writer. He's going to build up to things ie why Jimmy eventually joins the team etc

@Havok83 Jean is in this first issue and according to Spencer will be a big part of the Ultimate world going forward (she's also appearing in the Ult Hawkeye mini)

[Lord]

Is Pietro still alive?

[joshtylen]

Quicksilver is still alive I'm starting to find him interesting in this new ultimate environment.

[Lord]

If during the first Ultimate Marvel brand Magneto was pratically the main villain who was the main one in the Ultimate Comics brand?
You know, from the the first relaunch to Spider-man's death.

[joshtylen]

That's what we are going to find out. Who's going to take this opportunity to raise as a hero or villain. All the three ultimate books are going to be intertwined meaning everything will be happening at the same time and what happens in one book will also be felt in another.
