Ah, okay.

 

[K4tzm4n]

Well, that makes more sense

 

[OcStat]

no worries man.

 

[K4tzm4n]

But yeah...How many questions have they brought up?
-Who's the Black Panther? (Seems too obvious to be true)
-What's going on with Hank Pym?
-Who killed the Scarlet Witch?
-How did Valyrkie get powers?
-Where's Iron Man?
-What's the deal with Venom?
-Silly, but why isn't Janet asian?
-Why does Magento really want the body? Just to find out who killed her or is there something more to it?

And to think there's only 2 issues left...Issue 3 was entirely dedicated to Wolverine, which, IMO, was horrible. The plot wasnt that bad or anything, just a waste of an Ultimates issue. They could have used it to help develop everything else instead of Wolverine. It's not like they required that entire issue to just help explain the love between Quicksilver & Witch.

I'm not sure you can really call an issue a waste, in a serialized installment, until having seen and reviewed all issues of the, in this case, "mini-series." I'm not reprimanding or anything, and I'm not making a value of worth, so that should hopefully shut some people up (doubtful) - I'm just saying, until seeing what goes on in the final issues and how and what things are wrapped up, there's no grounds for calling it a waste of an issue in terms of story.

It might seem like a waste, but then, that's a whole different thing.

 

[K4tzm4n]

Well, I did say "imo". I have strong doubt that the series will manage to redeem itself with only 2 issues left. What I view as a waste another may view as pure genius. All a matter of opinion. Personally, like I said, I would have easily preferred development of the original cast as opposed to a secondary character. Like you said, it may alter. From here Wolverine might be in the main roster and play a strong role. I'm assuming he will since the 3rd issue's objective appeared to be to tie him into this as much as possible. I'm sure it's perfectly relevant to the plot, I just wish it took another direction, that's all.

 

[K4tzm4n]

If your post was only to dispute the way I stated things, then you're correct. But I'd prefer to discuss the Ultimates...Not the fact I'm at work and tend to just spew out sentences quickly without much attention to format...I'd like to avoid getting caught.

 

[El Bastardo]

I attributed the IMO to the value-worth of horrible, actually, since they applied. Calling the issue a waste was something else, but okay.

My original point still stands, opinion or not.

 

[K4tzm4n]

Fair enough. Well, how do you feel about Ultimates 3?

 

[El Bastardo]

I don't want to answer that question, for the sake of sanity. Bad things happen, it seems.

 

[K4tzm4n]

Smeh, shoot.

 

[OcStat]

i finished reading the first two series again last night..






i hope ultimates 3 will step it up with these last 2 issues.

[kguillou]

So... i guess this means that Ultimatum won't be here for a loong while.

No, Ultimatum has always been slated to begin in September.
