It makes my head hurt too. It was introduced in the Alternate Universes Handbook, so it is fairly new. There was the feeling that there was the need for a level between multi and omni verses. I'd agree - in particular the different Galactuses (Galacti?) lends weight to this. Lack of...

Cool, and thanks for the support. Some sweet surprises coming Handbook-wise next year. Since Feb's solicits have come out now, I think I'm safe to say we're switching back and forth between A-Z issues and themed issues through the year.

Not bad - just very busy. Handbooks planned into 2007, so no rest for the wicked.

Oh, and for the record, given his fate, I suspect Exiles' Zombie Wolverine is unlikely to be Marvel Zombie's ZW. However Exiles' ZW could well be the Wolverine of the reality from which the infected Sentry who started the plague on MZ-Earth came from. The Wolverine from the Sentinel...

Not quite, but thank you for acknowledging the handbooks. See below for clarification. Being numbered doesn't confirm being part of the same multiverse. The Core Continuum Designations (e.g. the numbering) could well be omniversal, and we've quite deliberately kept a check on non-Marvel...

Collected and slightly modified, correcting some of the mistakes which had come to light after the individual books were printed, and adding in some new images to supplement some entries.

I didn't write that entry, nor have I read the Mangaverse stories (so many issues, so little time and money). I'll put the question to the profile writer, but at a guess, it might be an oversight (e.g. a mistake), or it might be that their appearances were so minor that they weren't included as...

That was the case back then, but not the whole reason why Miracleman's colours were more limited. The early issues of Miracleman reprinted the story's first printing as Marvelman in the British magazine Warrior (the same is true for V for Vendetta) - and that was in black and white. When a...

"mystical place" - you get round a lot of things (like logic) with magic.

Yes, he did regenerate from a single drop of blood, in Uncanny X-Men Annual 11, but that was because he was killed in a mystical place and the drop of blood in question made contact with a crystal able to boost powers to the Nth Degree.

I don't think Millar would be insulted. As you said, I don't know the resolution of the story, a deliberate choice on my part (I could have asked, though they might have said no, but I saw no reason to ask). But we were told not to present certain things as done deals, so Millar could have ended...

Well, my online name in a lot of places is Loki (and has been for years, long before the Ultimates I hasten to add). Purely coincidental... :sick:, :evil: and :twisted:

http://www.ultimatecentral.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3968&page=11 "The writers have plans, which I don't know (because that way I can't accidentally let slip), didn't ask to know, and don't wish to either pre-empt or contradict." I'm privvy to as much information as is needed for writing...

Yes, Bushwacker's other arm seems to have also been replaced with a cybernetic one, and his skin (on his torso at least) replaced with some sort of liquid plastic. As for the Owl, he's supposedly a mutate, his flight powers coming from a serum he drank.

I just re-read all his appearances a couple of months back.

Bushwacker claimed to be a mutant in his last appearance. However this doesn't tally with earlier appearances, where his cyborg arm was surgically removed and we could see it was mechanical, suggesting he's either lying or delusional.

Pretty much. We know for sure falsified backgrounds were prepared on Black Widow and Hawkeye, to cover up their black ops past. It seems likely the same was done to make former terrorists Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch more palatable to the public. Fury shares a past with Hawkeye, so if they had...

I don't expect people to be content with many of the characters who didn't make the cut for individual profiles instead being part of group profiles; however, someone had to go, so those with the least info or who could be covered as part of teams were the most vulnerable. Like I said above, the...

Thanks, though I think the other Handbooks are pretty good too. We covered her own abilities minus armor in the text, but the power chart could only cover one set of stats, and her armored stats are the most current ones. Minus the armor, I'd put her at Strength 3 (possibly low-end of 4's...

Limited space, and much of what we knew of the Vision was going to be repeated in the Gah Lak Tus entry (at the time this Handbook was written, there was no Ultimate Vision series). If sales are good enough, another Ultimates book might be commissioned, at which point we'd be looking at covering...
