"Do you lack faith, brother...Or do you believe?"
Synopsis: Alone, Thor goes up against The Children of Tomorrow.
What's Good?
This is another Thor featured issue as the Thunder God goes to his possible death, but not without a fight. Thor has nothing else to lose (other than his life) since his son and his people were taken from him.
In the second issue, I wrote that it was a battle between Gods and science, and science ultimately prevailed. Even turning to science, Thor is still outmatched by The Children of Tomorrow and after this defeat, death would be more suited for the Thunder God. I'm going to say that Jonathan Hickman's favorite characters to write about for this series is Thor and The Maker, who is later is revealed to be Reed Richards (if you did not know this, Ultimate Fallout reveals this), because he writes both characters fairly well: Thor, a broken man with nothing else to lose, and Reed Richards, a man who has seen the future and is in control of the situation. But the greatest moment had to be when Thor gains some hope in a Star Wars/The Lion King sequence that's a bit corny, but it works for his character.
Esad Ribic's artwork has been the highlight of this series, showing off in great detail of what the future of could possibly look like if the Ultimates don' t get their act together.
What's Bad?
This will all depend on perspective because the reveal of who's behind The Children of Tomorrow is not that big unless you haven't been following the Ultimate Universe. Other than that, this issue did seem a little short but not by much.
Overall:
This is the second best series to come out of the Ultimate lineup (Ultimate Comics Spider-Man is first on my list). Jonathan Hickman is just bring back what made The Ultimates great in their first run even as the Ultimate Universe is ever changing.
