I suppose I've been enjoying this series. The only problem I have is there's just too many characters. There's not a whole lot of character interaction. I get that there's a lot of fighting going on but it's not like these guys get together everyday. They seem too comfortable around each other. I guess they all fought against the aliens in the Ultimates. Which we never did see where that fit into continuity with the other Ultimate titles. I don't remember there being a mention of New York getting trashed in Ultimate Spidey or Ultimate X-Men. Am I just drawing a blank from reading too many comics? Oh well. Like I said, it is enjoyable.
The breathtaking battle between the Ultimates and two versions of the Squadron Supreme concludes and the Ultimate Universe will never, ever be the same again! Ultimate Power #9 (of 9), from the red-hot creative team of Emmy-nominated and Eisner-winning author Jeph Loeb and acclaimed artist Greg Land bring you the “ultimate” superhero throwdown as enemies become allies to defeat the Hulk! Who’s more powerful—the Thing or The Hulk? Who is the new permanent resident of the Ultimate Universe? And what’s Nick Fury’s role in the stunning conclusion?
A March On Ultimatum tie-in, this powerful final chapter of the Ultimate Power epic forces both sides to make huge sacrifices that’ll change both the Ultimate and Supreme Power universes forever. True Believer, you won’t believe your eyes when it all concludes—it’s more than mortal minds can imagine!
Setting the stage for 2008’s can’t-miss event, Ultimatum, Marvel urges retailers to check their orders on Ultimate Power #9 and all upcoming March On Ultimatum tie-ins. In 2008, the ultimate price will be paid, but this is where the future of the Ultimate Universe begins…but is it the beginning of the end? Look to the Ultimatum teaser for a hint of things to come.
