Mentioned this before but I hope Ultimatum sticks around as an antagonist going forward because I find the mixing of the various Ultimate gear he appropriate to make for an interesting foe for Miles to fight.

My problems with Ultimatum:
1. Spider-Men 2.
2. He's a living reminder of the Ultimate Universe for Miles which is a continuity headache in and of itself. It also makes him jarring to work into 616 stories.
3. The Ultimate Giant-Man costume doesn't fit a Big Bad type.
It's an advantage the adaptations have like Spider-Verse and the video games, they just have something and are able to stick with it, meanwhile the comics feel more reactive to the adaptations improving things. The comics I don't know how they'd even solve any of that at this point because his backstory is such a mess with each new wrinkle.
I mean, I'd like a streamlined origin as well. but Marvel is largely allergic to doing full on resets. Even with OMD they wanted to have their cake and eat it too.

I just want to know how Miles went from remembering 1610 in Spider-Men II to whatever this vague thing is now. Was it Ahmed's idea or a higher ups kind of deal because ot doesn't really make much sense.
It would've been better just to make him a native of the 616 from the get go and drop the Ultimate Universe connection.
