[the watcher]

here are the previews of the last Ultimate X-MEN and Ultimate Fantastic Four stories. In the Ultimate Fantastic Four we get to see Johnny's story of what happened to him in Ultimatum. And in Ultimate X-MEN we get to see what happened after Ultimatum for them.

The UFF one looks kind of promising.

And the UXM one is already laying the ground for Wolverine's "resurrection", what with the Wolverine forearm bones being predominantly displayed. So Ultimate Wolverine was dead for all of one or two issues.

Talk about striking a chord! :roll:

Maybe not, he might stay dead. Then again almost everyone in that book has died and come back.

Dead for two issues? We can call the Guiness World Records people!


w00t!!!

Maybe not, he might stay dead.

And I might spontaneously combust, but the odds of it are so infinitesimal that it isn't worth noticing. The same is true there.

..but what if they bring Wolvie back and he's not a nice guy this time? I always thought it would have been interesting to see Wolverine as conniving, ruthless villain for a change...

What did you guys think of these books? I liked the UFF book better than the UXM book, it had a nice closure to the "series".

I liked how they regrew cyclops' head for the funeral.

It could be that Jean just didn't want to see him that way and used her powers to make it look like his head was still intacked or the artist forgot that a chunck of Scott's head got blown off.

*sigh*



Here's to hoping the Ultimate Universe 2.0 will be like the early years (in terms of quality story-telling at least) of the original Ultimate 'verse.

I just picked these up today and read them

UXM Requiem was pointless and terrible. Assemble? really?

why does cap show up for two frames? Why is his face obscured? WHy does he love cutting off robots' heads so much?

UFF Requiem was much better. The Dormammu thing was dumb (and the Statue of Liberty swallowing the Torch was aweful) but the rest of it was pretty good. Obviously Torch is going to end up as a regular in UCSM, but i'm interested to see what they do with Ben.

EDIT: oops, sorry about the double post. My internet freaked out. This one's actually a bit different than the first post
