It sells though, regardless if its crap or not. Loeb doesnt care because of this.

Well if I were paid by Marvel to write a story where I replaced the plot of a story for the death of half the Ultimate universe, I'm sure it would sell Anyone can do that and in fact I'd imagine a lot could do it better than it's being done....

"....... so hows Punisher dark regin?"

really my point is its pretty sad that all this book can do is kill ppl to be interesting, why cant anyone who can.. you know.. write a interesting and maybe epic arc be put on the ultimates?!
They honestly should have put someone who can think of creative ways to kill people to write this.
Because if the entire series is just killing off characters at least make it entertaining.

Another thought that just came to mind was that despite how horrible his writing is nowadays, Loeb actually helped to inspire The Dark Knight, with the long haloween.
So he's not ALL bad

Oh I have nothing against Loeb. He's written some brilliant stuff. My point is, I simply don't care who is writing it, I care about the plot. To say the plot sucks in this story is a massive understatement. I've imagined better stories than this and I've imagined some pretty crap stories....
I just hop when Millar returns to the title he will resurrect the characters I liked (The Ultimates) ignore Loeb's run and just carry on like it didn't happen......

As long as Millar writes like he did during his run on the Ultimates and not like what he's doing now with the Fantastic Four, it will be a good thing.
(Seriously, his run of the FF is pretty much garbage if you ask me)

actually I find his fantastic four to be at least interesting unlike the writer before him (I think it was mcduffie). The masters of Doom have sparked my curiosity and if played proper it could be a really good arc.

So many people died.
Why is this happening, is Marvel closing the Ultimate Universe?

Worse, they left Loeb alone in the Ultimate offices with a pen and paper (he's not allowed a computer.)
They're not closing it, just revamping it. The ultimate universe will limp on after this, just without everyone's favourite characters

lol, I guess I'm in the minority here, but I kind of enjoy Ultimatum. Don't get me wrong, it's far from the best series I have read - but I've enjoyed the issues so far.
