The 60th Anniversary issue of Black Panther was... nice

I recommend everyone at least read the Magneto story

It was cathartic in that it addressed a 25 year long plot hole from the Priest run and brought wonderful closure to it, keeping the right tone of BP and Mags

The Storm writer did a good job too... and not just because Storm was barely in it but she basically gave an inspired Kratos-like depiction of BP puttin in work. So much that costume design needs to be a skin in Marvel Tokon. Hell that entire equipment loadout needs to be his new design in comics and gaming. Straight fire


Only thing that wasn't fire was the opening/narrative art. Like... yall could've done better than that

Great final issue of Ultimate Spiderman

Loved that Hickman didn't play ball this time around and just wrapped his story up and basically left everything open for the book to continue under a different writer. fukk this "end" of the Ultimate Universe

DC is creating Shonen Jump characters now? I see Naruto, Ichigo/Yuji Itadori, Noodle, Death the Kid, and Kilik Rung.

Anyone read Ultimate X-Men? Now that the series is 'over' is worth me trying to read the whole series?

I dropped it half way through because tje story wasn't very compelling to me. Give the first 4-5 issues a chance. By that point you'll know if it's worth your time.

I liked the art and Momoko's style, I just stopped caring (like I did with Ultimate Wolverine).

These bothsides people think this ideology is so profound that it can explain away some bs the "otherside" is not supposed to be flatout racisim.

That show must have been a hit for them to take that action.

To me it was boring as hell. Never got past issue 2.

Okay. I read the first 4-5 issues and it didn't really feel like it was for me, but I thought it might read better in trade. I think I'll skip it; those characters haven't really played a part in the larger overall universe (so far).

Don’t read it.
Great art, but it has unnecessary edginess (The Japanese writer co-writes with a dude who adapts the dialogue).
The ending is abysmal and doesn’t resolve anything.

I just listened to a podcast and they said that this Ultimate Universe is about to end and another one will begin.
