Re: Ultimate Comics Spider-Man Discussion (SPOILERS) I didn't think much of it; that is I didn't particularly like or dislike it. I thought it was pretty boring, but I guess I should have expected it to be a lot of set-up. Also, I too was having difficulty figuring out when this issue was...

Or because 3 4-issue mini series bring in more money than the 1 6-issue mini series it should have been.

I was doing a reading of bits and pieces of the timeline and found what seems like a little error. In Ultimate Spider-Man #6, the order is listed as: (pg. 1-5, 13-15, 6-12, 16-22). Chronologically, it seems closer to this: 1-10, 13, 14, 11, 15, 12, 16-22. Alternatively, it could be listed as...

This makes me wonder if all of the Ultimates will get their own 4- or 5-issue minis. We already got Armor Wars, then Thor, now Captain America. Who's next? Hawkeye? http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=28817...

Well, good luck with Ultimate Thor. I do have a suggestion though. One portion of the issue is labeled "Eons ago." An eon can mean any great length of time, though it generally refers to a period of one billion years. So "Eons Ago" would be at least two billion years ago.

I really like the issue. Hickman seemed to take the time to understand both the UU and the mythology of Thor. I laughed at what is seemingly being set up as the cause of Ragnarok, but not in a bad way. It was more of a "who would think of that?" sort of laugh. The issue reminded me a lot of...

Forgot about these threads. Well, here's my list: 10/10 How to Train Your Dragon The Social Network 9/10 Inception Kick-Ass Toy Story 3 Scott Pilgrim vs. the World Iron Man 2 8.5/10 Get Him to the Greek The Town 8/10 Shutter Island She's Out of My League The Karate Kid...

You can add another to the didn't hate it list. I didn't hate the preview for New Ultimates either, but I'm sure I'll be eating those words shortly.

Re: Ultimate Spider-Man Vol. 2 (Discussion/Spoilers) Yes!

I'm actually looking forward to this. I like where Ultimate Spider-Man is now, and this looks like more of the same.

First two episodes have been great. I love all of the Mentalist jokes.

Re: Ultimate Spider-Man Vol. 2 (Discussion/Spoilers) Not to be confused with the SBPD's motto of "No body, no crime." Now that the requisite Psych reference is out of the way, I have to say that this was one of my favorite comics of the year (not saying much because I'm only reading about a...

Re: Ultimate Avengers (Discussion & Spoilers) First, to go back to Hawkeye's look: I think that he looks pretty cool on the cover of issue three. Second, I think Millar is making the most of Ultimatum by exploiting an aspect that is pretty unique to the UU: just about every character can be...

I think that one of the biggest problems with Ultimatum (and I realize that it had many, large problems) is that an event like that is simply too big for modern comics. We can assume that Ultimatum affected as many people in the UU, if not more, than Hurricane Katrina did in reality. People...

The promos and the preview scenes (especially the one that calls out the Mentalist) have been hilarious. Looking forward to season 4.
