The story - You have to realize that Millar was once responsible for crafting a huge part the Ultimate world. The original Ultimates and Ultimate X-Men. When Loeb took over he flushed that whole world down the tubes. Millar is now back on the Ultimate line and with his work on Ultimate Avengers is re-doing what he spent years making, hence the introduction of all new charachters.  Also, the point of the Ultimate Line was to work outside the lines of continuity and present new ideas. He is doing that well, it just took me until this issue to realize that. And to be honest, I love the exciting new prospect of these charachters.

Also, there is a lot of classic Millar moments that made me love this book. The Jewish vampire situation was hilarious and had me rolling (in a good way.) and the final panel with Steve Rogers was one of those "IT'S ON!" moments.

Now the low point of the book...  I went from this being the 2nd Daredevil story I picked up this week to the one I wanted to keep reading... until they turned him into a vampire. WHY!?! You had me! But now, the interest I had in this new Daredevil dropped. And this and the vampire hulk (I am guessing it is nerd hulk) made it from being book of the week for me.
