Who Withstood the Cataclysm? Your First Look at SURVIVE #1!

This March, the Ultimate Universe attempts to rebuild from total devastation at the hands of Galactus. But with every ending there comes a new beginning – and the next stage of the Ultimate Universe starts here! Today, Marvel is pleased to present your first look at SURVIVE #1 from the blockbuster creative team of Brian Michael Bendis and Joe Quinones!

Galactus, the Devourer of Worlds descended upon the Ultimate Universe with an insatiable hunger. Though he was defeated by the bravery of a small band of heroes – the cost was devastatingly high. New York City lays a smoldering ruin, and not everyone made it back alive. Many of the Ultimates are dead – and the remaining heroes are all beaten, broken, and emotionally drained.

“You’ve got all these characters [that] have been through hell together and now they’re coming out the other side and they’re kind of committed to each other, now that Captain America’s gone and some other characters aren’t making it back,” says writer Brian Michael Bendis in an interview with Marvel.com.

“A lot of these characters are very young, and with that comes a lot of emotion, a lot of drama, a lot of people making some disastrous mistakes both in their professional and in their personal lives; and all of that will be on display right away.”

Witness the birth of a new team of Ultimates! Who survived the fury of Galactus? Who didn’t make it out alive? What will become of S.H.I.E.L.D? The future of the Ultimate Universe is happening now! All your questions will be answered this March in SURVIVE #1!

SURVIVE #1 (JAN140748)

@micah: It's looking like it's going to have a very different tone, for sure. But I'm definately hoping it's good!

@maddpanda531: True, Peter went down swinging against Norman, and his death was epic, I'm just not ready to lose Cap. I mean we don't have much of the old guard left

@New_World_Order: why? he's just trapped inside the Negative Zone and he's immortal so unless Galactus ate him then everyone should assume that he's alive and will be back eventually

Wait so Thor doesn't get a funneral? Seems legit.

God thanks Bendis for killing off Ult Cap and Thor so you could ship Miles & Kitty. On a side note why is no one mourning Thor? He picked up Kitty's slack for being worthless in the battle. I don't like where the Ultimate universe is going.

Thor isn't dead

I'm just gonna assume hes dead until further notice. He was nowhere to be seen at Caps funeral. The only this would be forgivable is if Thor became Galactus' herald. Now that would be pretty sweet.

@micah: But didn't Ultimate Peter Parker die because the car he hit Norman with exploded? The most popular Ultimate character was taken out by a car explosion. I feel like, by comparison, crashing a ship into Galactus isn't such a bad way to go out...

What is it with Bendis and crappy over dramatic funerals! this pretty much gonna be Ultimate Fallout, Secret Invasion aftermath, Avengers Dissembled all over again...

I cannot wait for character who barely spoke to captain america to go say nonsense about how great he was and then cry, and walk away. Heck given how insulting the ultimate universe has become to its own golden era I would not rule out Bruce banner appearing and say "yh he was a jerk to me, lied to me, bullied me behind my back and used me as a weapon but i love him he's the nicest person in the world, truly he embodied the spirit of modern liberal america"

What most surprising is that of all the ultimate characters to not, its the biggest failure commercially and blandest characters in the ultimate universe - the Ultimate Fantastic Four. How is that least successful element is the one team that survived through! I blame those losers who go to ever convention and ask for a ultimate fantastic four return.

But hey there always Next Year's Ultimate Event when sales begin to decline for Ultimate FF

@maddpanda531: The last scene he's in is him jumping out of a plane after crashing the ship into galactus mouth. I highly doubt they would end arguably one of the most popular Ultimate characters that way. If he still does die in the future it will be epic

@micah: I guess that's a good point. I mean, it IS a comic book.

But, then again, this is the Ultimate Universe, where "Dead means dead". That having been said, I wouldn't be surprised if Cap stays dead, but gets replaced by a new Cap, in the fashion of Ultimate Spider-Man and Ultimate Wolverine.

@jonny_anonymous: Because it's the Ultimate universe, Europe's been destroyed about 3 times now.

Still, they could have spared a mention

I hope Cap, Thor and Punisher make it out. Their fates were left up in the air
