ULTIMATE ORIGINS #1 (of 6)
Written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS
Penciled by BUTCH GUICE
Cover by SIMONE BIANCHI
Variant Cover by TBA
This is it: The story that finally reveals the conspiracies behind the entire Ultimate universe! "Everything is connected." That was the mysterious statement uttered by Bruce Banner to Spider-Man when they first met. Now it's time to discover the jaw-dropping secrets that men have fought and died to protect. From the dark days of World War II to the frightening present, journey through history to learn what's really behind the Super Soldier and Weapon X programs-and how heroes such as Captain America, Nick Fury and Wolverine have more in common than codenames and costumes. The dream team of Brian Michael Bendis and Butch Guice unite for the first time for the Ultimate series of the year! Plus: Check out that cover by Simone Bianchi!


ULTIMATE FANTASTIC FOUR #48
Written by MIKE CAREY
Pencils & Cover by MARK BROOKS
What new Ultimate villain will make their debut in this issue?
Lost in the snowy vastness of Siberia, Reed, Ben and Johnny discover what they never hoped to find --- the wreckage of Susan Storm's aircraft! Who brought Sue down, and has the Invisible Woman disappeared for good? What does this all have to do with the Crimson Dynamo? Is his arrival coincidence, or part of a much larger, sinister scheme?


ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN #116
Written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS
Pencils & Cover by STUART IMMONEN
Green Goblin vs. Spider-Man... the final round??
Norman Osborn has come to the realization that Peter Parker is his legacy --- the living reminder of his unparalleled genius. All he wants Peter to do is to reveal to the world that it was he, Norman, who created Spider-Man. If young Parker will do this, all will be forgiven. If not, everyone that Peter loves will be destroyed! Will Peter give in to this simple but twisted demand? And what of Norman's own progeny, his son Harry? Be there for the latest chapter in the Spider-Man vs. Green Goblin saga!


ULTIMATE X-MEN #88
Written by ROBERT KIRKMAN
Pencils & Cover by YANICK PAQUETTE
The conclusion to the Sentinels saga has it all: The X-Men vs. Stryfe! The X-Men vs. the Fenris Twins! The X-Men versus the Sentinels! Can one team possibly defeat three foes?


ULTIMATES SAGA
As told by Tony Stark (with help from C.B. CEBULSKI and MINDY OWENS)
Based on stories by MARK MILLAR
Art by BRYAN HITCH
New Cover Artwork by MARK BROOKS and Interior Pages by TRAVIS CHAREST
Recapping the entire series to date, the ULTIMATES SAGA will be told by their new leader, Tony Stark. As America's premier super-hero team, the Ultimates have been forced to face more trials and tribulations than anyone ever expected during the course of their short time together: a Skrull infiltration, the trial of the Hulk for his murderous rampage, betrayal from within and the invasion of America. Now, no longer under the auspices of S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony Stark is forced to face the reality of his team's newfound freedom. Having gotten his hands on Nick Fury's personal files, Tony sifts through the information Nick has collected about the Ultimates' adventures and discovers there's been a lot more going on with his team than he ever anticipated. This 32-page special will also include an extra four-page section featuring an all-new story by C.B. Cebulski and superstar Travis Charest.

Ultimates Saga? I thought everyone hated Runaways Saga. But it does have Charest art... hmm.

Um, Carey? Crimson Dynamo died in Ultimates 2.

As for the rest, not bad. Ultimate Origins could be interesting. YOU HEAR THAT, BENDIS!? MAKE IT INTERESTING.

I didn't mind it much.

I'm looking forward to USM and Ultimate Origins, and I'll likely pick up Ultimates Saga.

Bleh to Ultimate X-Men and Ultimate Fantastic Four, though.
 
Man, I'm really ****ing sick of everybody capturing Sue. She has the best powers on the team and the brains to back them up! Why doesn't anyone capture Johnny?! He's the dumbest and I think he spends the most time away from the Baxter Building. Just make a hot chick robot, have it ask him to go off alone with her, stab him with sedatives, put him alone in a room and suck all the oxygen out whenever he tries to flame on. Whereas with Sue, you have to down a helicopter and **** and that's only capturing her, not keeping her there.

I can think of seven times including this one where someone had to be rescued by the rest of the team as a major event, not two pages of them getting pushed out of the way of a bullet or whatever. Reed had to be rescued from the Zombieverse and Supremeverse and Johnny got sick twice, with the shedding of the skin and the parasite baby. Sue got pwned by Namor, captured by Moleman and now this. Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but this is starting to look bad. It's not really a bad thing yet, but it's getting there. She better be doing something interesting and productive while in captivity.

I don't know I can think of more times where Reed does something and the rest of the team has to pay for it, the N-Zone accident, Marvel Zombies, Silver Surfer, Ultimate Power, the stupid time machine ****. You can't really say it always Sue, because she can take care of her self (Namor was... well he was Namor).

Also does anyone know why it says the Skrull Inflitration in the Ultimates Saga. Are the Chitauri really Skrulls?

It was mentioned by Klieser that they were called Skrulls. And they were confirmed as the Chitauri being criminal Skrulls in President Thor. You do have a point about Reed though. The thing that I get tired about is that almost every arc stems out of Reed trying to cure Ben. It's being overdone. Doom, N-Zone, President Thor, Ultimate Power. Get on with it or just have him give up.
