Should Loeb's run on the ultimates be retconned?

[The Overlord]

Since Loeb's run in the Utimates is so bad, should it be retconned? Would that make things better or will it just cause more problems?

 

[MaxwellSmart]

It's too early to tell how well it'll turn out. Besides, no way it'd happen.

 

[Bass]

In my head, it already has been retconned.

Twice.

Ditto, along with UIM

Personally, I tell myself UIM is just the ramblings of a crazy man with a pen and too much credibility. Then I read Ender's Game and cry. :cry:

Its not too early, no way can they polish that turd. Vol. 3 should get a Dallas ending.

Looks like it might.

Doesn't it kind of retcon itself sometimes?

Some things are just so horrible, they can't be retconned. Its one of the comic industry's biggest ironies.

It really doesnt matter I see the Ultimate universe becoming the MC2 universe. All the titles will fail except USM

 

[Void.M]

I'd wish.


But it's selling alot so i don't why Marvel would.

 

[Vegetarot460]

well #1 because the fans are hating alot of it and #2 in June Loeb is gonna blow it up

But it's selling alot

Not anywhere near what it was.

 

[The Overlord]

Not anywhere near what it was.

Its selling on brand name alone now and that won't last forver. Let's see what happens with Vol.4, that would be the true test.

What? Ender's Game is bloody brilliant. That comment should be retconned!

 

[Ice]

I think that's what he means. Ender's Game is a brilliant novel, then you read what the same writer did with UIM and wonder "WTF? Seriously?"

 

[Fredrik Martinsson]

What? Ender's Game is bloody brilliant. That comment should be retconned!

That's his point.

 

[Void.M]

Not anywhere near what it was.

It was still in the top ten.

Last issue also sold well.


people are crazy i tells ya.

Then again Meet the spartans was the number one movie in america.

people will buy anything.

 

[E]

It was still in the top ten.

I was talking about the Ultimate imprint, not just Ultimates.

This thread is pointless.

How can you ask a question to which there is only one conceivable answer?
