Ultimate Comics Thread

Thanks for the advice.

I might actually start picking up Ultimate Comics: Avengers, probably because Siege is ending all the 616 Avengers series and I REALLY want an Avengers fix.

Eh i think you're abit misinformed buddy. All the old lineups are ending and the new one will come with Marvel's HEROIC age. If you tho LOVE Thunderbolts/Dark Avengers you might still wanna check this one out, because here the Avengers are the black ops team, and believe me most of the team members are nasty ****ups.

Ehh, I HATE Thunderbolts/Dark Avengers.

Then just wait for the May comics and see the new Avengers that are coming up. New Ultimates which is about the "public heroes" such as Steve Captain America, Iron Man, Black Panther, Ka-Zar, Zarda, Shanna, Hawkeye and Thor is going to be written by Jeph Loeb. So people are very pessimistic and skeptic overall on that.

I'mma wait for a review and or/trade if the reviews are good. Loeb's Ultimatum and Ultimates 3 made me wary and very cautious on him handling ultimates. Which really sucks, cause I want to read about Ultimate Cap, Iron Man, and Hawkeye.

Wow, so what in the hell happened to Carlos Pacheco? Did he die or something? I just checked the marvel solicits and the next issue doesn't come out till end of February. 3 month delay? Really? What happened to him?

 

[Drz]

I iwsh i knew man, but i think we can just say he may have blew off his chance to be on the A-List. He's art is stunning but man is it taking long. But hey think about this: It's January and Leinil Yu is 4/6 issues done with his arc. So hopefully Marvel will let 2,3 doubleship in May and then 4,5 in June and #6 in July. Or something like that.

Bendis Interview on Ultimate Enemy!

 

[Saved]

...okay, now I'm kinda sold on Ultimate Enemy. This sucks, I can't afford another four dollar book.

 

[Artistsean]

Can someone give me the gist of what Ultimate Enemy is about?

 

[Drz]

Can someone give me the gist of what Ultimate Enemy is about?

It's a 4 issue story that will be part of this trilogy. So thats 12 issues total. It's pretty much Bendis making his Spidey characters team up with Fantastic Four, Nick Fury and so forth. I heard someone even jokingly called this: Ultimate Secret War... if thats the right name when the heroes invaded Latveria.

Basicly we got a new mystery villain. Bendis has twittered that we will receive a new Dr. Doom, but is he the only villain behind this story? Probably not, but who knows really? It's basicly action with a mystery plot by Bendis. I don't know is Bendis good or not at telling mystery stories.

And yeah whats up with Marvel making every Ultimate book into a 4 buck comic.

Also Blade fans and Twilight haters? Read the 3 first posts here.

As one of the biggest defenders of the Ultimate universe, that Enemy story doesn't sound interesting. I'm gonna check out Ultimate X and hope it doesn't suck.

 

[Drz]

Ultimate Enemy #1 was kinda like Siege #1. Just building up for the bigger next issue. But hey this has Fantastic Four, Love Drama, Spider-Woman, Spider-Man & his Amazing Friends and Nick Fury! Not to mention Rick Jones!

 

[Venom160]

Awesome first issue. Definitely better than anything with the Ultimatum name attached to it. Can't wait for the next issue.

Ultimate X #1 Preview

EDIT: Oh Chris pointed out. J.H initials. Mystery kid is actually Logan's son more likely. @_@

Also it seems Millar's Daredevil & Blade are both trained by the same guy, no info what Ultimized character it is, but things are getting exciting! Gosh i just wish it was April already lol. Anyhow #5 is definatly coming in February. Its been colored and inked. Best issue by Pachero says Millar, which i can definatly believe if they are taking their time with inking and stuff. #1-3 we're just beatiful +A quality but #4 was only A quality.

 

[chris moore]

The kid's initials were the same as his biological father, which were coincidentally the same the man who raised him - James Hudson, JH, Jimmy, James Howlett; the established real name of Wolverine (stated by Cap)

 

[Drz]

Looooooooooooooooooooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeb

EDIT: Still can someone confirm that Sabre+Wolverine connection? Are Sabre and Jimmy now brothers? Or what?

 

[Venom160]

I like how they tied in James and Heather Hudson but I'm not sure about this. I mean [blackout]Logan's[/blackout] son? Really Loeb? You kill the real deal and replace him with some new guy. But on the plus side this little preview was better than Ultimatum so I'll def give this a shot.

 

[Drz]

I don't know where this page is from. Probably some comic teaser magazine or so, but hey it's Ultimate Punisher, wohoo!

 

[Venom160]

looks like its from Wizard. Pretty cool art work.

Does make ya wonder who the mother is or was or whatever.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

I don't know why people are reacting so strongly to Logan having a son. Loeb just pretty much created Ultimate Daken.

It's because he killed off the original one to write about Wolverine's son. While the Mainstream universe has both of them alive. Still atleast the Ultimate Universe IS becoming different than the Mainstream one.

 

[Ion Kenshin]

Hopefully he won't be as terrible as Daken. While we may just be getting Wolverine light with this Jimmy guy I'm glad to see a a break of Wolverine. As much as I love the guy the oversaturation is getting (quite possibly beyond) to be a bit much.

 

[storyteller]

Honestly In Ultimate Enemy, did they really need to play that L card with Ben and Sue? They never hinted at this before..........

 

[Venom160]

yeah but when was the last time you've seen Ben open up like that? The only time I can think of was in the Super Skrull arc when he admitted to Johnny about trying to kill himself. And like he said in the issue he would never have said anything because he would never screw over Reed like that when they were still dating.
