Upcoming Ultimate Spider-Man arcs

Why not? Given the Ultimate version could and will probably look vastly different than the 616 version, but if he can control it why shouldn't he be able to shape his body into a human form to pass as a regular person when he wants/needs to? After all, Ultimate Sandman could.

I won't be surprised if an Ultimate Hydro-Man will be another genetic experiment made by the Latverians. They did get a Sandman sample via Beetle. Hydro-Man could be a modification on Sandman technology.

Or the sample will just serve as a basis for a few of Latveria's super soldiers. I doubt Bendis would be silly enough to introduce Quicksand after Sandman. We hardly know Sandman as a threat yet... He was only put on the Sinister Six in this universe because of his popularity in 616.

I think Watcher is being facetious about Quicksand. At least, I hope he is.

Sandman was included in the Ultimate Six, simply because in spite of being a mere cameo in USM 15 or 16, they lacked a fifth member. I mean who were they going to include, Shocker?

It could have been a brand-new member, saving Sandman for a better day (Which I would've liked better), OR they could've used Venom or Rhino, two available characters during the time it came out.

True, Sandman could be saved for a better story, but then again that's really a writer's prerogative.

The Ultimate Sandman doesn't seem much different from his 616 counterpart: hapless thug gone lucky like Electro --- although their origins are corporate experiments rather than freak accidents --- so Ultimate Sandman probably works best in the service of a larger team or under a more calculating villain.

As for Venom and Rhino: Venom disappeared completely off of SHIELD's radar through means unknown and the Rhino is NOT an illegal genetic mutation (and therefore totally inappropriate to the setup of the whole story) and thus neither of them could be used in Ultimate Six.

Then they must be saving Venom, too.

Good! We need a break from Venom. Not that I don't like Venom. But I think it's better to have a little more of a mystery to the Ultimate Venom. Have him gone a while then have him come back for a short but strong story. Then wait a while more and do maybe a Mini. about what he's been doing. Like I said about in the Ultimate Venom Thread. Have a story from Venom's Side of the story. How he feels about the Suit, Peter, & Maybe have Peter Tell Eddie about what he had learned at the end of the Ultimate Spider-Man video game.

MJ better not get powers.

Agreed. I think - I hope - Bendis knows better.
 
I betcha either Silver Sable or the Reavers capture Peter, and Shadowcat and Mary-Jane go try to help him.

Perhaps MJ will go as Spider-Woman? :D

What did he learn?

How their parents died: Eddie's father used the Suit on himself while the Parkers and Brocks were on a plane and he went on a rampage, causing it to crash.

That's disapointing, I was really hoping that they'd died from Corporate evildoings, not their own mistakes...

Are you serious? How'd he learn that?
