sorry for the double post but i just recently got around to buying Ultimate Origins #2 And #3 and am curious to what everyones thoughts are on its progress so far.
find it abit funny honestly. the connection between magneto and wolverine. more so with the story wolverine told in ultimates 3 about sleeping with his wife and how he treats him.

Hopefully this means the Ultimates will be the best comic out there....again....
Marvel remained mum on any details, refusing to reveal which book Millar would be handling, and even whether his return would take place before or after Jeph Loeb's mini-series Ultimatum. At the retailer's summit today, they finally came clean. Starting next year, Millar will be launching a new series entitled Ultimate Avengers.
Macchio was willing to reveal the lineup of the team, though not without first warning that he didn't want to spoil Millar's story. "In terms of characters, we do have Hawkeye. We have a new Black Widow, because obviously the first one is dead. We have Punisher in there, and we also have a very interesting character – the first Hulk. More than that I don't really want to say."When asked about possible villains for the series, Macchio hinted that Ultimate Avengers may place a stronger emphasis on supervillain characters than Millar's Ultimates stories have. He wouldn't reveal the major villain behind this story, though he did provide a few hints. This villain has not appeared in an Ultimate comic before, but is well-known in the regular comics. Macchio said, "This character is well-established in the Marvel Universe and has been for 20-something years, but can be viewed as both a hero and a villain."
The Ultimate Universe is a bit of a state right now IMO, it seems to keep changing their characters histories. For instance I didn't know Banner turned into Hulk 15 years before the present time. And was an established scientist then and Betty in the military even though I'm sure in the Ultimates it said she was 26.
And also in Ultimates 3 Magento uses Thor's hammer to beat him saying " As I suspected whoever forged that used Iron" when he's already used the hammer against Thor before.
Also did you guys read the recent Ultimate X-Men/FF4 comic? Looked like a Captain Scotland on the cover, that's why I bough it, but it wasn't 🙁

Magneto used the Obviously made of metal Hybrid Hammer he first appeared with. given he was weilding a 'stone' hammer this time around the comment isnt totally retarded.
i also picked up that comics.. scott as captain america..eh.
Ultimate watcher is a bunch of odd ikea lamps? cool. if galactus is a giant swarm of robots i guess watcher being a assortment of pillars isnt that bad a idea lol.
yeah and Nick Fury was the first Captain America. Wolverines relationship with magneto seems really up in the air.. mag frees him from disgusts.. hires him as an assassin, also captures him to preform his own tests to create addicting drugs for mutants O_o that is abit odd.
hulk killing the parkers? i enjoyed that lmao. its really just connecting all these dots between all the ultimate heroes and villians. its kinda cool if not a little annoying.
honestly want to see more captain marvel ! a little appearence in FF is just annoying. im waiting to see something interesting.

Some of the roster
MM: Ultimate Cap, Ultimate Iron Man, Ultimate Blade, Ultimate Punisher, Ultimate Ghost Rider, Ultimate Spidey. You won't believe what I have planned here and this just touches on what's coming up
NRAMA: What's the scope of the project you're coming back to work on?
MM: It's the biggest, most ambitious Ultimate project so far and even ties in with what Zak Penn is doing on The Avengers movie. He and I have been talking about this because he and Kevin [Feige] and the guys have always said they're essentially doing the Ultimates, right down to Sam Jackson as Nick Fury. This thing is mega and anyone with even an iota of interest in the movies of the comics will be creaming their pants when they see what's planned here.

Oh, Jesus Christ... I actually want them to make that Avengers film now. That could be ****ing incredible.
First off, Ultimate Avengers is an ongoing series set to debut after the conclusion of Ultimatum. The artist is still being kept a secret at this point. Millar dropped several hints in the past, saying that the mystery artist is someone he didn't expect to be available and that he's never worked with them before.

Oh and this.....
Fans of Ultimate Fantastic Four and Ultimate X-Men, however, will be disappointed to hear confirmation of the popular rumor/fact that both books are being canceled. "Following issue #60 of Ultimate Fantastic Four and issue #100 of Ultimate X-Men, I believe those books will go dark. After that we're reformulating our plans in light of Ultimatum. As to what happens to UFF and UXM, we have some thoughts, but nothing I'd like to mention just yet."
