    They have twice as many students since the Wave, so it's harder to keep order I'd imagine.

    With the way they treated Kitty, I wouldn't be surprised if schools with mutants had extra security as well.

    Yeah, I really enjoy slowly learning about the "new" status quo piece by piece in UCSM.

    I just hope we continue to learn things steadily and organically instead of having to wait for an annual or special issue that serves as a flashback.

    I also hope some concepts and characters from the previous Ultimate universe show up in UC Avengers or Spider-man or a random miniseries. Ultimate Deadpool for one, or the whole Latverian symbiote arc that was right before Ultimatum.

    Hey hey, the USM Deadpool arc was good. And Ultimate Deadpool is supposed to be different than 616.

    People are complaining about the art still?

    The main reason I jumped on it as a monthly rather than just going back through the old trades is because I love the new art style so much.

    I remember liking his art on the Annual, mostly about the way he handled motion. Swinging and stuff like that.
    But with all of Bendis' slow moments, and goddammit Peter's hair its really frustrating to look at.

    But if I didn't want to be a baka gaijin I'd read fucking One Piece or someshit

    The art is awesome and wiggens is dumb. There I said it

    As for the issue, I really got annoyed when Peter left to go fight that Mother/Daughter team. I would have taken this whole issue where they do nothing but show us around school and have lunch.

    It positively smacks of manga and I dislike that type of art to begin with

    The panel where he gives Gwen a quick kiss before he runs off to be Spidey and she blushes looked like it was lifted from an old Sailor Moon cartoon and I just about gagged

    Man, going into Ultimatum I totally thought it was going to somehow involve Doom and the Symbiote and I was excited.

    Instead we got Magneto + Thor's Hammer (which I'm still unclear as to how hes able to wield it, let alone how he got it) and a bunch of suck.

    As for the art, I like it but I would give Pete a haircut.

    I so totally agree. Especially since they appear to be little more than throwaways.

    Wiggan is totally right on the art. Gwen's face was just "OH TUXEDO MASK YOU ARE MY FAVORITE OF MASKED SUPERHEROES"

    It's good , good I say! It's just the big Spidey bobble head that makes it wonky.

    And stuff like Gwen's eyes seems to be a coloring thing more than Lafuente's art.

    We need more throwaway villains, though. Every Spider-Man book has more than a few, and they keep us from getting evil mastermind fatigue.

    I loved that panel. I would marry it if I could.

    The only thing I didn't really care for was the Bombshells, simply because I've setan egg timer to see how long it takes before Pete teams up with the daughter. Because you know they will.

    If I've learned anything, I know that any girl you bond with in a dumpster can only lead to tears.

    Runaways was always fairly manga-y. Well, when Takeshi Miyazawa did the art, anyway.

    And ironically it wasn't particularly manga-ish either.

    The art's cute and I don't really mind it in and of itself, but it's... well, it's not... it's not Ultimate Spider-Man, dangit!

    Seriously, he's got Sephiroth bangs.

    Anyway... I liked the new Ultimate Bombshell(s) bit. The dialogue was hilarious. Ult. Spider-Man does the whole 'ultimate take on various characters' better than any other Ultimate book.
