Alright, THAT was unexpected.
HOLY SHIT (10 chrs)
Someone will definitely joke that Hickman wanted to write ASM, but didn’t want to deal with the Spider-Office crap, and therefore brought back the Ultimate universe for the sake of it.
I'm pretty sure there are Hickman quotes out there saying he didn't want to do it because the fans are hard to please. No idea what he's referring to, but the fact that he's doing (what I think is) a non-616 run probably does mean that 1610 gave him more freedom to do what he wants.
Checchetto on the art is great. The chip DD run was beautiful to look at every issue
"He's pure power and doesn't even know it. He's the best of us."-Matt Murdock
"I need a reason to take the mask off."-Peter Parker
"My heart half-breaks at how easy it is to lie to him. It breaks all the way when he believes me without question." Felicia Hardy
So FF, Avengers, X-Men and now Spider-Man albeit Ultimate. Think Hickman has a checklist and won’t quit until he’s written every major part of the MU?
