In regards to Armor Wars: Why is Tony fighting Master Chief?

Because the British goverment loved the designs and stole it from Microsoft! Tho yeah the simualarity is hilarious.

Even the COLOR scheme is the same. Like, come on, at least color him two different colors if you're going to be that blatant.

And, yeah, I hope the current USM guy replaces LaFeute. I can't believe I'm reading Spider-Man with normal heads again!

lol I was thinking the same thing.

GeoffJohns0 Wow. All due respect to everyone else, but Ultimate X just redefined what the Ultimate Universe can be. Bravo, Jeph and Art.


Looks like Geoff Johns was also impressed by the first issue.

 

[Venom160]

I think everyone is just in shock. Nobody had real high expectations for this. Just a pleasant surprise that it was actually good.

 

[kguillou]

Ultimate X is that good? I dont believe it.

 

[Ion Kenshin]

Dude I'd say at least give it an in store read. I enjoyed it.

 

[Drz]

Ultimate X is that good? I dont believe it.

You will either see it as a character-driven father-son story, or a "herp derp spider-man teenager wolverine with a herp derp superman origin" story. I saw it as the first one.

 

[Venom160]

lol herp derp. Thats what I call the tard twins in Transformers 2.

 

[BoredGuy]

It was definitely worth the read, I just hope Loeb can keep it up.

 

[Drz]

Dat art!

 

[sabetoonth]

whos the oen with black hair? she hulk?

 

[Drz]

Zarda. She had sex with Hulk in a story that Loeb wrote. >_< She's like this ultimate warrior woman from another universe or something like that. She is probably as strong as Hulk/She-Hulk.

ok....to wikipeidia

 

[Anubis]

She was the Wonder Woman of the Supreme Power universe. You know, modern day, crazy, ancient man eater, Power Princess.

Man the conclusion to Armor Wars was so sci-fi for me lol, but gosh was it emotionally powerful! I liked Spider-Man issue too! I get to learn more about Rick Jones yeehaw! I'm liking this whole "Spidey and his amazing friends" book, what about the older Ultimate Spidey readers? You satisfied or not?

Anyhow here's a Troll Army Study by Frank Cho for New Ultimates:

 

[Blue Lantern]

The quality of Loeb's writing has declined. I hope it's just because of all his work in other media, and not the other possible cause I'm thinking of.

I haven't caught any of Millar's latest Ultimates issues. Are they as good as the first two series?

 

[Venom160]

Pretty much. Its been an enjoyable read. As for Loeb have you read the first issue of Ult X? It was pretty good than again I may just be tainted from Ultimatum and absolutely anything I read after that would be awesome by comparison.

 

[Brainiac 8]

Even though I loved the old USM....the new direction Bendis is taking Spider-Mans story is really fun. In fact Ultimate Mysterio is pretty awesome.

The amazing freinds story is full of comedy potential.

"No Hanky panky in the house, for any of you, that especially goes for you Mr. Storm."
"What?"
"I read the gossip sites."

Do you like Millar's Wanted or Kick-Ass? Because he's using a new line of characters that are total jerks and ********s. They're all pretty much Black Ops psychos. But yeah the quality is top notch and the action is awesome. Captain America is still the ultimate badass of Ultimate Marvel.

 

[El Bastardo]

The end of Ultimate Armor Wars was good. Ellis successfully writes another great Tony Stark title.

May Ultimate Comics!
