    Yeah guys, geez.

    Its a comparison. Ultimate is a little more grounded and science-y then vanilla Marvel.

    So it looks like the Ultimate Universe is coming to a close, and some of the Ultimate characters are going to move over into the 616 world.

    Any candidates as to who should live to make the transition? Miles Morales, obviously. But who else?

    Mile Morales and all his supporting cast.

    How about Spider Girl?

    Or is that one clone too many.

    Everyone.

    People of Earth are dealing with a new species of AI, a boom in the Inhuman population and now alternate versions of themselves.

    I expect we will only see people we DONT already have existing versions of cross over.

    So basically... Miles.

    she might be too similar to the 616 Spider-Girl, actually

    Spider-Girl can fit.

    Clone of Ultimate Peter Parker that is no longer that clone but now a girl kinda sorta.

    Pretty sure that's not even closed to covered in the 616.

    I meant more in physical appearance than their actual characters. They're both teenage brunettes wearing black and white costumes.

    I do like Ultimate Spider-girl...

    If they are ending the Ultimate Universe, what I would want to see is for USM to just continue in it's own little corner, sort of like Spider-Girl and MC2.

    USM always seemed a bit separated from most of the Ultimate Universe anyways.

    There is no sense of the word in which 616 Kitty Pride is a junior X-Men.

    Kinda sucks that they wasted the effort to create fake Nick Fury Jr when they could have just waited a year and got the real deal Ultimate Nick Fury to cross over

    Nope, not at all. The cataclysm #2 solicit says Miles will come to the 616 verse, but that could be just trying to get help or who the funk knows. But most websites reported it basically as a done deal because of that hence the convo here.

  • OwenashiOwenashi Registered User regular
    I think Miles going to the 616 is most likely him being sent there to get help or at least information on how they handled Galactus. It's probably where the Ultimate heroes learn that simply sending Galactus back as he currently is won't be the best idea.

  • PhillisherePhillishere Registered User regular
    After reading an interview where they were stressing Teen Wolverine and the other Teen Heroes taking center stage in the coming event, I am doubling down on my prediction that the Ultimate Universe is going to be the Teen Hero Universe. All the adult heroes die heroically defeating Galactus, and the line relaunches soon after or slowly spins back out of Ultimate Spider-Man.

    So you think we may get an Ultimate Marvel version of this then?

    Please allow me to not comment on unsubstantiated rumors and let us tell our story. and please believe me when I tell you that I have been working on the ultimate universe for 14 years. as important as it is to some of you it is doubly doubly doubly important to me. if not more so. and I promise you that I will not let you down and I will tell the story worth telling.
    can you imagine if there were someone at your job who just decided it was their job to spoil everything that you do? and if they can’t spoil it they just make something up?
    that is what it’s like to try to tell a decent story for this generation of mainstream comic book creators. see, if we deny the rumor, we give them hits, which is all they want, and if we don’t deny it, we make it true and give them hits. which is all they want.
    so no matter what I do, I lose. and no matter what I do they win.
    i just want to tell a fucking story without this barnacle on my ass. and, yes, i know, just mentioning them causes them to start masturbating. I know I’m not helping myself but i just want to be clear where i stand with this.
    what’s funny to me is that no matter how many times these stupid websites are wrong, and they are wrong about half the time, people still believe what they read. and I’m not just talking about rich’s website.

    Re. Ultimate X-Men 30
    I wish that they'd stop making formerly heroic characters who have become villains so damn gleeful about being villainous. I had this issue with Ultimate Reed too, who happily chops off the top of Tony's head, tortures him a bit, then cuts out part of his brain and lets him choke to death with a great big smirk on his face the whole time, plus everything that was going on during the original City storyline. Now we have Jean who, because Kitty won't bow before her, is secretly poisoning Utopia and invading with cloned death-troops while attempting to turn the world against the Utopia community with a bullshit speech about how equality-loving her nation is, a massively hypocritical and dishonest maneuver, and acting pretty damn pleased with herself afterwards.

    What the hell, Jean? I'm fine if former heroes make bad choices and butt heads with other heroes, but why would they suddenly start enjoying lying, cheating, killing and torturing? I'd rather see these characters stay truer to their original incarnations while still being at odds with each other - it'd be like if during the Civil War, Captain America started pulling fingernails off captives while laughing about it.

    Well
    I feel like Jean's backstory is being intentionally held back for shock value to the detriment of her character. I have a feeling she'd work better if we knew at all what happened between when we last saw her and now.

    As for Reed I found his reappearance rather out of character because I don't feel like he did things like this in his original storyline.

    In a surprise twist cause he's all mad, Bendis saves the Ultimate Universe, wipes out 616!

    (altho I even feel bad making a joke prediction after Bendis rant heh)

    In an even more surprising twist Bendis destroys both universes. New Universe becomes the Marvel standard.

    I think that if you went through sites like BC you would find that more than half of their rumors turned out to be either unprovable or wrong. So I do sympathise with Bendis there. At the same time I feel like fans are justified to be a little worried about such a big thing.

    Ultimate Spider-Woman has a red and white costume

    and is better than 616 Spider-Girl anyway

    Isn't there going to be a mysterious "Spider-Hero" character in Mighty Avengers? I wonder if that's Miles. (And time breaking shenanigans to explain how he got to the 616 universe way before Cataclysm)

    Because Miles is known for his preference for nun chucks and weapons.
