Shirizaan awoke in the alleys of a city called Rune with no memory of who he was. As he began to make a life for himself, he became haunted by nightmares in which he committed cruel acts of torture and murder under the orders of an organization called SHIFTER.
Suspecting that these were more than just nightmares, he enlisted the help of a sorcerer named Soran who revealed the nightmares to be genetic memories that were trying to surface.
As he left Soran's home, he was attacked by a cloaked figure who quickly fled when the attack failed. Shirizaan gave chase and witnessed them vanish through a pool of glowing blue light. Before he could follow, the light vanished. He clutched his head and cried out as a surge of repressed memories flew into his mind.
He was Commander Shirizaan of SHIFTER. Like many other agents, he served to bring absolute order to all of the universes in the multiverse. But how had he ended up here? Why had he almost been killed? What kind of man had he been before?
Those are the questions that he seeks answers to as he wanders the multiverse and seeks his SHIFTER brethren.

I really want to like the Ultimate Universe (also known as Earth-1610). However I can't deny that it has been rather hit or miss. The new Spider-Man? I think he's actually an improvement over the original Earth-616 Spider-Man. Venom and Carnage? Not worth reading.
Seriously, what is up with that? The Earth-616 Venom was amazing. Spider-Man wore the suit for a long time before the storyline finally came to a head. In the Ultimate universe it was like they couldn't hardly wait to get the symbiote to Eddy Brock and only paid lip service to the fact that Spider-Man wore it.
With Carnage, they didn't even make him a symbiote this time around, he was just some vampire blob that wanted to be Peter Parker. There wasn't a murerous serial killer wearing it, nor did we even actually get to see Spider-Man take him down... we're just treated to a brief flashback of Peter Parker tricking the symbiote into jumping into a smoke stack.
Ultimate Galactus was a real let down. I was looking forward to seeing the Ultimates and the Fantastic Four do battle with the Silver Surfer but again, we're only treated to brief glimpses of his abilities and the fights with him are over in one or two panels of a single page.
All in all, I'd like to see the writing stepped up a notch in the Ultimates books. Just my .02.

I love Ultimate Spidey. It's been pretty good overall. I agree about Venom and Carnage. I remember the big deal that was made when Venom first showed then it sorta fizzled out. And Carnage? WTF? Sure great, they offed Gwen which was sorta unexpected with the way she was being built up and the potential she had. I think Bendis has been doing a great job overall. I am concerned with the change in pencilers. But we were lucky to have a consistent creative team of over 100 issues.
Ultimate Galactus? Woof. That was a major letdown. I think part of me has blocked out the ending.
FF and X-Men have seemed to have gone down a little. I'm hoping FF picks up. Ultimate Cable? I'm sorta on the fence with him. Have to see where it goes.
The good thing is Marvel "promised" Bendis that they'd keep the universe small and not just pump out crap after crap and call it Ulitmate (according to Wizard). Hopefully things will prosper in the new year.

So how do you feel about "being" Iron Man? He's not too popular nowadays. Looks like we're similar though, he was my number 2 and GL was number 1.

Yeah, Iron Man is kind of a sleeze bag. I dunno. He's extremely manipulative and goes way out of his way to get what he wants. That's really what got me Iron Man I think. It's a personal fault and something that I know I need to work on in my personal life... Still though... I'd have this really cool power suit... and I've always wanted one of those. :P
