If any of you read ULTIMATUM, you'd know that Jeph Loeb and David Finch did the proverbial "shake the house down" treatment on the Ultimate universe, with characters dying left and right and the status quo of the surviving few changed forever. The Ultimate universe was then reformatted to Ultimate Comics, and since then we've only had three titles to enjoy, depicting the new lives and adventures of the Avengers, Iron Man, and Spider-Man. So far, it's only about Earth's Mightiest Heroes and the Web-Slinger... but what happened to the rest of the Ultimate World, specifically the X-men for that matter? Comic Book Resources and Marvel.Com have some preview titles to answer those questions, including a peek at the title to replace Ultimate X-men.
Say hello to "Ultimate Comics X" by Jeph Loeab and Art Adams. With the entire Ultimate cast in turmoil, a new kid steps in and makes his presence known, apparently sporting claws like James Howlett, aka Wolverine, who was killed by Magneto in ULTIMATUM. How this guy makes an impact in the Ultimate universe will have to be seen, as this issue is still slated for a Feb 2010 release. Looking forward to that, as well as the other titles due that month, when more woes hit the Parker home in Ultimate Comics Spider-Man, and Captain America finally comes face to face with his son, The Red Skull, in Ultimate Comics Avengers.
