Comics Official ULTIMATE X-MEN Discussion Thread

[squeekness]

I suppose it's too much to hope for that since Beast is on the cover that he's not actually dead, right?

 

[Venom160]

at this point I wouldn't be surprised if everyone (save Marvel's overused posterboy ofcourse) dies.

 

[usagicassidy]

Everyone seems to be so upset? I just read through volumes 18 and 19 of the trades and boy, I thought it was one of the worst things I'd ever read...18 and 19 are pretty much the most recent ones right?

 

[ProfeZZor X]

The very least Marvel should have done was come out with a cover that featured ALL of the Ultimate X-Men... Or make an alternate cover with all of those characters, other than that one.

 

[Obsidian Idea]

Yeah I know huh?.. but wouldn't it be sad if the ones featured were the ones that didn't make it out of Ultimatum? But maybe the original crew (minus Bobby) are the ones who do survive.

Bobby and Liz are most likely going to survive and become recurring characters in Ultimate Spiderman.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

^Hate it :

It is true that the quality of this book has slipped greatly, but in that event a new creative team can usually fix that, not a cancellation.

 

[Havok83]

After 100 issues, why wont they give these guys new costumes? Its long overdue

 

[UraniaChang]

New costumes for the last issue?

Not a chance.

Seriously

 

[squeekness]

So Ultimatum 3 has been pushed back to February. I wonder how long it will take this series to wrap up if it will run so late?

 

[Havok83]

New costumes for the last issue?

Not a chance.

100 is the last issue?

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yup, f***in canceled!

 

[Kahoot]

i'm glad they decided to use the original x-men on the final cover.

Collossus wasn't one if the Original x-men, unless you mean the original Ultimate X-Men.

 

[Venom160]

Yeah I think he meant the original ultimate. Though Iceman is missing so its not the entire original team.

Ultimatum tie-in! The unthinkable has happened as the X-Men find themselves reeling from the devastating events of Ultimatum. As Xavier’s pupils prepare to retaliate, one X-Man is conspicuously left off the roster. As her time as part of Weapon X is counted against her, how can Rogue prove her loyalty? How far will she go? And just what is her mysterious connection to Vindicator of Alpha Flight?! His identity finally revealed!!!

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Damn, this is so sad. I don't care about Dazzler dying, but poor Kurt.

Wonder if that means Warren and Hank are ok.

 

[squeekness]

Warren we saw come out of the water so that leaves Hank...

 

[Jango X]

Wow, so the massive casualties in the Ultimate Universe are going to be caused by a big wave? Thats not very epic......I expected the cause of all the deaths would be a big battle or something.

I noticed the guy from the beginning of the preview's name is William Striker.

 

[ProfeZZor X]

Damn, this is so sad. I don't care about Dazzler dying, but poor Kurt.

Wonder if that means Warren and Hank are ok.

You would think he'd be able to teleport out of there, but I guess if he had a bit of a death wish then why bother escaping...

For such powerful beings, mutants sure know how to die in so many mortal ways.

 

[Hyperion1320]

Geez, Storm can't get any attention even in her home book! If there were some meterological catastrophe, wouldn't you want a weather controlling heroine on the scene?

The wave might just be the beginning. Mags is pretty powerful with many weapons in his arsenal.

 

[Venom160]

*sniff* poor Ali and Kurt.

DAMN YOU MARVEL!!!!!!

 

[ironman29758]

*sniff* poor Ali and Kurt.

DAMN YOU MARVEL!!!!!!

I kind of understand Alison but not Kurt.
