Comics The Ultimate X-MEN Thread

[LittleMissVixen]

It was delayed again. *sigh* Maybe we'll see that arc sometime next year, but I'm beginning to have doubts we'll see it at all now.

Ditto...I doubt it will ever happen. First it was supposed to be just Singer...then it was delayed...then it was going to be Singer w/ BKV as cowriter....then nothing.

I hope they give Rob Kirkman a full uninterrupted run, without having to side-step for another writer. If Singer ever does an Ultimate X-Men story, I think it should be in a miniseries format.

Well I just read on another board that Magneto calling Polaris an "overweight harlot" is a reference to the 616 Polaris being sensitive about her weight? I must have missed Polaris being sensitive about her weight. When did this happen?

So this guy who's writing the next arc, does anyone know if he is any good? What else has he written? And are they changing the artist? Could anyone post a sample of his art? Thanks

Now that I'm done asking all those questions, i would just like to say that I'm really sad to see this creative team go and get replaced. They were so much better then the bendis team. They have had an amazing run and it seems vaughn was just getting into it and ready to make something big happen. I hope they come back for another run.

Robert Kirkman. Yes. "Marvel Team-Up". Yes. No, but he's the same artist who did "Ultimate X-Men Annual # 1" and much of the "Return to Weapon X" arc. You're welcome.

 

[Ratcrawler]

Probably my favorite scene in this ish was that whole "Cyclops you remain the least threatening boy alive. You won't blast me if I'm holding your broth--" BLAM!!!

Kurt's reaction was interesting. Maybe his deeply catholic faith is worried that Piotr will burn in hell for being gay.

Finally, my theory for what Magneto is plotting; Genoshan takeover.

 

[Morgoth]

I like some UX-M, but I haven't liked the artwork lately, I miss Kubert very much.

Rob Kirkman is an awesome writer. He is the creator of Invincible and The Walking Dead. I strongly recommended reading trades of Invincible. It is one of the best comic books today.

 

[GreatWhiteWhale]

I enjoyed invincible, a friend of mine has all the issues up to current.

Stupidly I skimmed throught them and found out about the big 'twist' and saw some more of the reveals later in iss 25#, then I started reading it from the beginning, got to about issue #9 and said 'Eh, I know where this is going'.

I really regret being so impatient. Itr looked like a great book that I feel I can't commit to know.

Anyway, Ult X-Men? Phenomenal. Hope Rogambit is cool.

So that's where they went.

I wondering if Ult. Nightcrawler is actually Catholic, has there been anything to suggest this? Making him an Atheist would be a character change similar to Pitor.

He seems to be very religious but I would prefer him being buddhist or some other religion than changing him complety.

I've been out of the Ultimate loop since the Annual... is Rogue back with the team yet?

 

[GNR]

Favorite UXM arc?

Mine would be the classic "Tomorrow People".Everything Vaughan has done is up there as well.

She just showed up last issue but they didn't really deal with the whole Remy bonding thing yet. I imagine that will be coming up next issue.

MIne would also have to be the tomorrow people. The Return to Weapon X on was really good too. I'm glad their bring back sabertooth. He and logan had a really cool fight in that arc. Plus, he's like one of the few villans that actually changed (the four wolverine type claws) when he was ultimatized.

 

[Roguex18]

I wonder if shes back for good or its just a 6 part thing.

Does she still have the red on black eyes?

What number did Rogue return in? I get the UK ones and we are a little behind the US ones

She had red eyes.

It was in issue 65 for us.

 

[Generation Lee]

My favourite arc would be Return of the King. I love that panel were Pitor rises up and beats the crap out of Magneto for hurting Wolverine. Take out the crush he has on him this showed what a power house he was and Jean too wow the power there. And Cyclops was at his best.

Tomorrow people comes in second.

Worst Arc Hellfire and Brimestone. And superstar Cameos and no real story.

 

[Cyclops]

So that's where they went.

I doubt that they walked in the sewers all the from New York to South Africa....

 

[Czar Colossus]

At the risk of being politically incorrect I don't like it at all. I'll deal with it,but I still think it was a sucky move.

Thanks for the info

What was return of the king about? I know its when Magneto came back.

I need to read that one. I need to read alot of them actually, I'm coming back after being away from it since the Weapon X story in 2000.

 

[baby_webhead]

Whow! you've missed a lot! in my opinion, you can skip the hellfire and brimstone one and the team up one with spidey. Those two arcs were the worst.

 

[Ratcrawler]

Incidentally, did anybody see that new image of Ultimate Hulk literally ripping Wolverine in half? HOLY S#!T!!! This comic can not come out soon enough!
