I think the proliferation of X-Teams in the 616 is the main reason I don't follow any X-Men books. It's just too hard to get a complete & straight forward story out of any of it. That being said, I hope Marvel doesn't get up to their old tricks and make another Ultimate X-Team, or at...

I just read UFF #11, and now feel like I've had enough time to digest Doom's new look. Does anyone else think he looks sort of like a devil with his goats feet and claws? I wouldn't be surprised if he was hiding some little horns under that hood of his! His skin turning into metal is also an...

Anyone have information/speculation on the members of either of these groups? Who was in the 616 versions?

I've got two questions, with one leading to the other: 1) How do you think the UFF compare to their 616 counterparts? Personally, I was really looking forward to finally picking up a Fantastic Four book, but this series has kinda let me down so far. The idea behind it was fresh and exciting...

They should melt his arms if they can. Not to... S P O I L T H I N G S ... But they do do that at the end of the arc. That was one of the coolest scenes in the whole story (beside Doc taking Spidey's tooth out, and Spidey hitchhiking back to NYC).

I for one am excited to learn that the upcomng batch of USM will be short two-issue team-up type stories. Too many of the latest long-form arcs have left me dissatisfied (Carnage, Venom, and that mutant one). I was seriously considering dropping the book for a while, but I did enjoy the...

Yeah, due to the fact that we know very little about him and he is coming up, we should do a background check... He was in UTU and I wanted to know why and to what effect? .... If I recall correctly, isn't the Ultimate Dr. Strange the son of the original 616 Strange? Also, the story in UMT...

Is anyone else fed up with the fact that after fighting a dozen big baddies that he still seems kind of a klutz on the battlefield? It seems to me that he always jumps into middle of things before assessing the situation. Did his survival skills go bye-bye when he was bitten by that spider...

Goodwill said: What do you mean, an evil version of the FF? In the Planetary book, I mean... There's this group in there called "The Four" Jacob Greene = Benjamin Grimm (The Thing) John Leather= John Storm (Human Torch) Randall Dowling = Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic0 I don't know...

Has anybody here been reading Ellis' work on Planetary? In there, he has an evil version of the Fantastic Four. I find it highly ironic that he was chosen for this project. (Or maybe it was just karma.) Anyway, if he can create stories even half as good as those in Planetary, he should have a...

Speaking of which.... What about the scene between Peter and Jean Gray. Paraphrasing her... JEAN: "... You're the first guy who hasn't automatically pictured me naked.... until now." That had me lol!

Ultimates/Avengers - 616 Comparison Re: Any major villains going to be in the second volume? Using the Marvel Masterworks Avengers #1-10 as a comparison, these were the major villians that the original team faced during that run: Loki, Hulk, Namor, Masters of Evil (and Baron Zemo), and...
