Tex, you almost had mine with Uncanny X-Men, but I wouldn't have chosen that scene, rather I'd have gone with a variety of panels from throughout the book. I don't want to post them since you posted so much, but it would have been...
1) Scott Summers is a dick, with the panel of him throwing Ben back down the hill.
2) Emma takes Ben under her wing, using a number of panels from what you posted
3) Scott Summers is a bigger dick, showing his letter
4) Scott Summers is actually a decent teacher, showing the whole thing was done as a way to spur Ben to grow as both a mutant and a person.

Cataclysm Ultimates was fun. It was nice seeing an old thread from the Ultimate Vision mini-series re-surface.

Did that happen to be
the super weapon Reed built to scare off the Gah Lak Tus wave and was never brought up again?
Nah.
It was Ultimate Modok - the version that Vision fought. He was first introduced as George Tarleton of AIM, a human cyborg who infused Gah Lak Tus tech into himself and transformed into a monster under Gah Lak Tus' influence. At the end of the book his body was destroyed and he was left as just a head, albeit still-mobile and deadly.
He re-appears along with AIM and the Gah Lak Tus cult from the original Ultimate Nightmare trilogy, which was another neat element that hadn't been heard from 'til now.
Reed's space-gun was probably disassembled and was really only useful for blasting stuff out of orbit anyway, but it definitely sounds like Reed will be brought in to help later on.
Ronan, Kl'rt, Gladiator and Annihilus kicking the shit out of space-gods.
Annihilus is the wildcard.
A lot of times during this story I've gone 'what the hell is Annihilus even doing there with all the heroes, he tried to kill the universe too, come on guys.'
But yeah... it's pretty great to see him fighting.

That was 100% my stance on that.
"Why is he helping you? He hates the postiive universe! Why are you letting him help? He conducted the bloodiest war creation had seen since Thanos murdered half the universe!
But seeing Black Dwarf call him "some dead thing from another place and time" I was totally down for seeing him kick some ass alongside the other three.
I know they toilet trained him, but Johnny had him on a leash for the whole time so I don't think he'd be especially kindly disposed to the positive matter universe. Maybe his heart grew three sizes when the Negative Zone voted for him to become supreme despot again.
That whole arc seemed to be played mostly for laughs though, I don't know how much of it should be taken seriously.
Matt Fraction's stickey-notes over text boxes of 'we didn't get the rights to Use Fat Bottom Girls, so here's commentary' in Sex Criminals is my comedy moment of the week.

Totally my MOTW. Might be moment of the Infinity event for me.

So, basically
