I saw another preview on another site that showed the follow-up to that.

He's the predecessor to Captain America, unpowered, apparently.

No clue.. but I'm thinking Citizen V (a.k.a. John Watkins or a.k.a. Dallas Riordan).

This is why I hate it when Bendis does time references...it always comes out wrong and problematic.

Indeed.

Early reviews suggest that Nick Fury

was also given the super soldier serum during WWII

So they are retconning to say he was alive in WW2? Or had they said that previously?

Well, that sounds kind of dumb.

Ok that doesn't make any since whatsoever since Fury told Parker that he was in college in India about twenty years ago.

Yes, and we all know that Fury is fervently against lying.

Silver Bullet review

Read the first paragraph, it pretty much gives it away.

After reading the review...

It's a terrible idea. Nick Fury, that is.

The only reason the original has the infinity serum and fought in world war 2 was because, like Captain America, that's when he was introduced. Why would he still need to be? It's silly and certainly isn't even a big deal now that Fury is out of the Universe.

I really hope this is just a set up issue for some important stuff.

Just cuz he was in college twenty years ago doesn't mean he couldn't have been alive during WWII. Maybe he went back to school...? Yeah, I know its weak, but its all we have.

*sigh* I'd rather have the 50+ years of continuity of the 616 universe than this bull****.

Fury was the coolest Ultimate character, and now we've got freaking Ultimate Isaiah Bradley.

Yep.

I'm putting off judgements until I read it, but it sounds shaky at best.

Doing the one thing that pisses me off more than anything; Tying everything together. Nothing is without coincidence. That's piss poor storytelling.
