Will there be a Vol. 3?

[Goodwill]

Guys, guys... This is Millar we're talking about. Since when does he care about continuity and all that jazz? We've had this discussion a while ago... Besides, I've head various rumors going around that he will marry Black Widow only to lose his battle with cancer. I thought I read it on an interview with Millar, but I could be mistaken. We'll see, though.

Even if he does die, we can do a series with him in it. There's been tons of stuff left out of all of the Ultimates and Iron Man's past would be interesting, among other things.

Could you explain? The only continuity error I can think of in Ultimates was the mentioning the Fantastic Four in #2, and that wasn't out of continuity when that issue came out.

 

[Goodwill]

Millar had continuity problems with the Marvel Knights Spider-Man series... Ultimate X-Men was a little confusing from time to time... Etc.

Who knows, though, Millar is also one to surprise his fans. Iron Man could die regardless.

 

[Ice]

I dont think so. Just 'cuz he may not care about continuity or whatever, doesnt mean anything. I still say Tony's gonna stay alive. Major character like him dying? Don't see it happening.

 

[Goodwill]

Again, he's said a few things about Tony and it didn't sound good.

 

[Ice]

But we wont know anything until the issues come out. But I still think that Iron Man aint going anywhere.

 

[Dark_Images]

Anything is possilbe. But for now, I'd say Tony's chances are looking slim. How did Millar mess up Marvel Knights Spiderman continuity?

 

[Ice]

I dont know. SO far, I say he's doing a hell of a job writing MK: Spider-Man. You guys should give it a try. There are some hell of a fight scenes that were spectacular.

There's a thread on it in Non-Ultimate Comics.

 

[Goodwill]

Joe Quesada had concerns with the Green Goblin appearance in the first issue. I guess there was some problems with him actually flying around without explanation as to how he got out of jail or whatever, I dunno, I just remember there being a slight conflict there.

 

[Ice]

Ahhh, come on. Does it matter THAT much? They almost always find a way. But to me, it doesnt matter. Good story equals good comic (to me at least).

 

[Goodwill]

Well, there are tons of things that factor in to a good comic. The art, how entertaining the story actually is, and, in rare cases, if you can feel for the characters. Most writers are good in some places and bad in others, but I would imagine someone likes someone elses style of writing better than another. Like, you, Ice, probably like Millar, whereas, I'm a Bendis man, myself. Just an example.

 

[Nurhachi]

Marvel Knights Spider-Man is one of my favourites right now. I like it just as much as Ultimate Spider-man

 

[Goodwill]

Yeah, I really think that it is a good title, too, Millar just can't control himself with what he does to stuff, though.

 

[René]

Dude back to Ultimates. I dont think Tony is gonna die. If he does die then i dont know... Ill probably say. "holy ****...Millar actually killed the son of a bitch". But he's not gonna die

 

[Ice]

I dont think Tony is gonna die.

Im thinking the same thing.

 

[Atomyth]

I don't know...maybe he doesn't die, but go into a comatose state. That keeps him around if he was ever needed or wanted, but gets him out of the spotlight at the same time. Plus, that would make room for Ultimate Ms. Marvel!

 

[René]

WHAT??!!??!!?? Why would there be Ultimate Ms. Marvel. Tony might get hurt bad enought to put him out of action for sometime but I dont think...well, comatose is something that could happen to Tony, will see what happens

 

[Atomyth]

Why would there be Ultimate Ms. Marvel!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Why Not! She's freaking awesome if you read the older Avengers ish's with her as a more prominant character. Geez, I love her to death!

 

[Ice]

You know, I want to see an Ultimate Ms. Marvel too.

 

[Atomyth]

Amen!

 

[Goodwill]

I think that would be a good idea... As long as she is there just to give Rogue her abilities.

 

[Ice]

I think that would be a good idea... As long as she is there just to give Rogue her abilities.

Yeah- that would be nice.

Millar made a post on his site about Ultimates 2 #1 (see the main page here for the story) and made reference to someone picking it up after he's done. So it looks like a strong possibility, at the very least.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Goodwill]

Did he give any hints as to who it would be? Honestly, I think that, if not UFF, Ellis would do wonders with the Ultimates.

 

[Ice]

Ellis would do wonders with the Ultimates.

To think what he would do...... :wink:

 

[Atomyth]

Personally, as long as I like the story, I don't care who writes it, as long as I keep gettin my Ultimates fix regularly. Yeah, I'm addicted! Whats it to ya!

I think we all are!

 

[ProjectX2]

I get my Ultimate fix through The Ultimates and Ult. Spiderman and that's through trades. I have both Ultimates trades and 9 of the Spider-Man ones. If I had more money I would get Ult. X-Men and the FF but I'll just wait for my library to get them. I think there will be a volume 3 since on Millar's site he said something about him running out of ideas and the next guy doing something else.

 

[Blacksword]

You know, I want to see an Ultimate Ms. Marvel too.

Well judging from the blonde woman in military dress in the preview for Ultimate Secret I'm guessing we'll be seeing Miss Danvers quite soon.

Getting back on topic, I glad to see that there are indications that there may be an Ultiamtes vol 3. The team as an entity is too valuable to be put on the shelf and only sampled from in other titles. Also I think keeping the Ultimates as an intermittent title is a good idea, that way it can remain the high quality flagship title for the Ultiamte line.
