I feel exactly the same way. This isn't the book that I would've pitched, but so what? It's great so far. I couldn't care less how much it is or isn't like a "regular" X-Men comic... I just like that...

Bummed to see a fill-in artist already so early, but at least Checchetto will be back for #6. Art looks good though, but I can never get enough Checchetto. I'm loving this new world Hickman is...

I'm not sure Ultimate BP is really my thing. It's a fine enough book, but maybe I'm just not a Black Panther fan. Not much in these two issues has hooked me. I think the most interesting part of the...

This IS what Ultimate X-Men is though. And even if they went in a more traditional manner, it still wouldn’t be the same as the old Ultimate X-men, so that ship had already sailed. Just like...

It’s literally a comic by every definition of the word though - that’s my point. The only thing that makes it different to any other comic on the shelf is that it’s written and drawn by a Japanese...

Treating manga as “other” to the extent that you act like this isn’t a comic is the exact opposite of giving an artist respect.

Why do I have to accept the book is flawed? That’s not an objective fact. I think it’s a good book AND I think it’ll develop more as the story continues. Those are not conflicting opinions. There’s...

You need to learn what an excuse is. ItÂ’s not an excuse to say that more story will come. People are talking about the three books differently because theyÂ’re different books.



Never said it...

Ah yes, “this isn’t even a comic” - very reasonable take.

I’m not making an excuse, I’m pointing out a very basic tenet of ongoing storytelling. There’s more story to come.



I have read Demon Days and indie comics. Who says they have to be confined...

I mean we still don’t know where it’s going to end up. I have no doubt it’ll eventually be part of the overall UU story. But I don’t care if it’s not all one big crossover to begin with - and tbh I...

I guess it’s for me. I want to see a talented young creator tell a story that’s not bound by preconceived notions of what the book “should” be. I don’t think that’s an outlandish opinion to hold.

Again it’s been literally one issue. Anyone who’s been a longtime fan of X-Men will recognize Armor, so I don’t see it as any different from UFF #1. You all keep acting like this is never going to...

Where would the word mutant be in this issue? It’s one character who’s going through an experience - so far - alone. It’s hardly uncommon for a new mutant to not know they are one until someone comes...

I'm a few days late, but I thought Ultimate X-Men was a great start. I can see why people would be bummed if they were looking for something more similar to a typical X-Men book. However I'm super...

I'm not sure why everyone is so bent out of shape over it not having the X-Men in it from the get go. Yes, the book is far from a traditional X-title, but it's obviously going to eventually have some...

I don't think I'm crazy about Bullseye having a tech suit, but the design is super slick nonetheless.

Bendis wasn't even remotely near the most important writer at Marvel when he started USM. Ultimate Spider-man was literally his first ever Marvel book. He wasn't Marvel's #1 guy for nearly another 5...

Get out of here, you.

Haha, you knew I couldn't stay away for something like this!

I got my Hickman back... now we just need to see what Peach does with your precious Wolverine.

Fantastic start! It's a little slow, but Hickman does a great job laying out what makes this world different than others we've seen before. Ben being alive is awesome, and I'm glad this UU seems to...

My money's on Tony.

I get what you're saying about the issue maybe feeling overindulgent if this is all undone at the end. I thought it was a cool look at the Maker's approach to things, though....

My only worry about Hickman writing Ultimates (or any of the titles) is that he's had previous runs on Ultimates and X-Men cut short, and even his Avengers run was a bit muddled by editorial and...

So cool to see the scene from the OG Ultimates #2 recreated and updated. Obviously (as usual) it's clear that Maker isn't messing around. But I can't help but feel like 6160 is just a stepping stone....

I think it’d be pretty easy for them to just say that neither of those was the actual UU. They certainly didn’t resemble each other. And neither one really lined up with what a continued UU would...
