Comics Official ULTIMATE X-MEN Discussion Thread

[Colossal Spoons]

I just read in the latest issue of Wizard magazine that Turner and Loeb are colaborating on an Ultimate Wolverine mini due out sometime next year. They said it would be dark and gritty because Ult Wolvy is not the same as 616, he is darker, meaner and a little less noble as we saw when Wolvy tried to kill Cyclops for real in Antarctica. Leob was saying that this Wolvy is not so nice and has a more questionable moral character. They plan to look into Wolvy's past to see why he is who he is, but it will not be a full exploration like the first Origins mini. I'm looking forward to it.

There's no reason for that

There are sooo many other characters I'd like to know about but we're stuck with Logan again. What are Longhot and Juggernaut up to; for instance. :

^Yeah why is that? He wasn't even born with them.

Yay! I am SOOO happy now. I didn't know it was the Ultimate universe where she had Sunfire's powers was it?

Bump this now. If that store lady doesn't have my issues ready, I'm going balistic. I'm missing out! I'll have to get issues #73, 74, and 75 first before I get the others.

Wolverine was born with his claws (Bone claws) the Adamantium is a 'upgrade' to his natural mutation, so it's not unreasonable if Cable is indeed Logan's son from the future or clone that he'd have claws later boned with metal.

 

[gothicFLAVOURS]

Was he born with his bone claws in the Ultimate Universe too? I can't remember if they really stated in any issue.

 

[squeekness]

Hell yeah! Can't wait for the Wolverine mini. I am so glad Turner is doing it. By the way, are they planning on bringing Gambit back this millenium? Jeez it's been too long already!

I don't see how. He was pretty much croaked.

Lets hope it does better than the last Ultimate Wolverine mini, Ultimate Wolverine Vs Ultimate Hulk. Will that ever be finnished?

 

[squeekness]

I don't know. I thought I heard in the comics forum that the Ultimate Hulk Wolverine would finished sometime next year.

They have to bring him back at some point right? It's Gambit for christ's sake! I don´t know why Marvel insits on wasting such a good character.

*Slaps forhead* I Ummm....knew that.

Gambit's hardly above death. I sure don't miss him

 

[Balian]

Gambit's hardly above death. I sure don't miss him

That's harsh, I'm sure he'll return at some point, I'd say by 100.

 

[javon]

Isn't he a horsemen of Apocalypse?

 

[Balian]

Isn't he a horsemen of Apocalypse?

We're talking about Ultimate since this is the thread for it, you're talking about the adjectiveless title.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

That's harsh, I'm sure he'll return at some point, I'd say by 100.

As much as I think the 100th issue will be about Apoc; I really wish it were about Magneto and Longshot's whereabouts.

I'd forgot about those two, that's peaked my interest again.

Oops. I'll just be quiet now,lol.

Yeah, it's still Mystique being held in the Triskellion. (sp*)

 

[Neptune]

Just wait till Ultimate get's a good writer again. Then you'll see what a good character he is. And i wanna know what's up with Longshot and Magneto too. Especially Longshot. He is way cooler in ultimate than in 616.

 

[Goddessreicho]

Why the sudden demand for Gambit? I mean common what happened to the dead staying dead. Why not demand a return for Beast? He died first and in a far worse fashion?

 

[Neptune]

I don't like Beast as much as Gambit. Besides there is plenty of Beast in other titles. Even in the movie. Gambit is nowhere to be seen. But I still hate the fact that they killed off Beast for no reason. He too was the victim of a pointless death.

 

[jim_root_rules]

Spoiler

any one got pics of cable popping out his claws?

 

[Max J Power]

There's no reason for that

Spoiler

I think Juggernaut died in Annual #1.

^Haha, I was just gonna post that.

Wow, I'm really curious as to who's gonna die. They killed Beast last time and I jumped for joy; this time, i wouldn't mind seeing Shadowcat bite it

 

[Jennifer Walters]

It's not gonna be Shadowcat and they really need to stop killing the Ultimate Bastards....I mean Ultimate X-Men.

 

[Goddessreicho]

^-- funny! LOL

I wouldn't be suprised if it was Storm. No one gonna even notice that she's gone. She hasn't been doing anything but collecting dust.
