Go EVIL-REED!!!!!!!!
This is one of the only Ultimate titles I have ever read and I am loving Evil Reed! Makes me want to go back and read some earlier stuff featuring him.
I KNOW! Evil Reed Richards is slowly becoming one of my favorite villains ever. Between this and the Ultimate Doomsday story bendis did last year I almost prefer him as evil than his good guy alternate in the 616. Sooo much fun!
It’s funny…I recently read the first trade of this series, and I get the impression that Hickman is writing THE EXACT SAME Reed Richards as he is in Fantastic Four…just with, you know, the obvious difference.
Ultimate Reed = Ultimate Doom.
@Riley You don’t say!
Also I can’t stress this enough, SO GLAD ESAD RIBIC IS BACK ON ART!!!!!
I just want to see UFF get back together. Obviously minus Richards… but I miss Sue and Ben and I’m not getting enough Johnny with him being in UXM now.
They need to get a fourth member and start a new team! Oooh! Spider-Woman!
I disagree. Honestly I think it would be cooler to have Ben (energy The Thing) and Sue as part of the Ultimates and just leave Johnny in UXM. Just my two cents.
Either idea sounds pretty rude to me!
Rude how so?
@Thompsonlive I thought about that as well but I really enjoy the characters a lot and I feel like if they’re in a book like Ultimates that has such a huge cast that we will hardly see enough of them. Sorta like with Spider-Woman.
Sorry amigo, where I’m from rude means good!
Gotcha. Where I’m from it either means you listen to ska or you’re a dick.
I like the dick meaning, might have to go with that one instead!
@RileyArmpit32 LOL
@jonny I can understand that concern it is a pretty large cast they could get lost pretty easily.
HOLY SHIT! INSANE! Did that seriously just happen?!?!?! So hard not to go spoiler crazy with this book! 5/5 POTW!
I’m not getting it until friday, so no spoilers yet!
Please!!!!!!!!!
I’m like you with the disbelief at the final scene.
There is a lot of turning it up to 11 every issue with this book.
Gosh, a month is a long time when you’re waiting for the next issue.
All is not lost hombres ‘cuz the next issue is out on May 9th & I believe it’s a double-bubble next month, two issues!
Also the new creative team of Humphries & Ross join the Don-God-Hickman!!!
(P.S Please no spoiler comments not yet?)
@RileyArmpit32 what has Humphries & Ross done before, are they any good? I honestly have never heard of either of them and kind of scared to have this beautiful world Hickman has weaved put into the hands of two unknowns.
Sam Humphries currently scribes the John Carter: Gods Of Mars series at Marvel, also Fanboys Vs. Zombies & Higher Earth at BOOM!.
The only thing I’ve actually read by him is a self-published mini-series called Sacrifice which is on about some guy getting sent back in time to the Aztec period, it’s kinda cool, bloody-violent & a bit trippy, but really hard to find.
Luke Ross has been around quite awhile despite being in his early thirties, has done Samurai:Heaven & Earth for Dark Horse & the odd cover & bit of interior art for Spectacular Spider-Man & other random fill-ins for Marvel & DC. He’s quite good clean lines, I think he will be good replacement for Ribic (I hope).
WOW… Holy Shit pretty much covers it. Great 5/5
When does Hickman sleep? Anyway, great issue, easily 5 out of 5. This is type of book that reminds me of why the Ultimate universe is still an intriguing concept.
Got it & read it, this is the most awesome issue of the series to date, definitely my POTW!
Sad Hickman is leaving. This book is on another level.
