Marvel’s Ultimate Avengers Return!

ULTIMATES (2024) Issue 1
▸ THE ULTIMATES RETURN TO GREATNESS! Spinning out of Jonathan Hickman and Stefano Caselli's ULTIMATE UNIVERSE #1, rising stars Deniz Camp (CHILDREN OF THE VAULT, 20th Century Men) and Juan Frigeri (INVINCIBLE IRON MAN) assemble an all-new team of ULTIMATES in a series that kicks off the next chapter of the new Ultimate line. Six months ago, Tony Stark sent Peter Parker a radioactive spider to set him back on the course to become Spider-Man. Since then, Iron Lad (Stark), Captain America, Doom, Thor and Sif have begun to do the same for other lost heroes, building a network of super-powered heroes hungry for change… Now they must band together to destroy the Maker's Council and restore freedom and free will to a world ruled from the shadows!

Tony never contacted Ultimate Black Panther or Hisako in Ultimate x-men. In fact, Wakanda is the only place on Earth 6160 that was seemingly not impacted by the Maker's council.

[@dubcwherever]

Except Konshu and Ra are on the council and attacking Wakanda. Hard to tell if that has anything to do with the council or just vibranium or whatever they found in the last issue though.

[@sjbrigante4845]

@@dubcwherever They're attacking Wakanda but that seemed to have began after the Maker was locked in the dome. Either way I don't believe T'Challa was contacted by Tony. Unless we get to see it in a flashback or something

[@g.a.2997]

I imagine Ra will die in the first story arc, and the council will take notice, feel threatened, and make a hasty decision.

[@NotAGrabbaghoul]

Id rather him join later or not at all, it’d be even more interesting if Storm and him become half of the Ultimate Fantastic Four or something crazy

[@nikolap490]

​@@NotAGrabbaghoulAre you referring to Johnny Storm? Sony, but the Fantastic Four are presumed dead before they even existed (except for Reed Richard, of course). And the other Human Torch is Jim Hammond, the original Human Torch. If the Fantastic Four ends up existing in this universe, they will most likely be radically different in this universe...like just about everything else.

[@kamenrangerzeo8251]

The most fascinating thing that I will say about this brand new Ultimate Universe is that they try to have it where young Tony Stark is trying to create Captain Marvel and Hawkeye on his first attempt but it ended up having disastrous results. However in his second attempt he was able to create giant Man and Wasp so I definitely like the direction that they're doing for this brand new Ultimate Universe and in some ways it kind of reminds me of how a younger version of Tony Stark was brought into the main Avengers timeline I think it was back in the 80s and that younger version of Tony had lived the life of his adult self before eventually his body caught up to him.

19:25 - I mean... Britain and France were at war for literally 116 years.

[@TheBwing]

With the exception of our current one, I don't think there's been a century where England and France were not at war with each other. It is as they say, a complicated relationship.

[@ayoitsnigelgaming]

They also, almost always, choose the wrong side of every major war. Even in recent history

[@DeathBYDesign666]

And they were bitter rivals since the middle ages before that even. They've spent more time in the past 1000 years as rivals than allies and now it's just old habits.

[@alexwaters159]

True but that's not why we hate the French, most British people don't even know our own history very well, (I personally don't hate them to be clear), it the perception that all french people are intellectual fashionistas swanning around their apartments, naked from the waist down, sipping wine, composition poetry, having sex with our girlfriends while we go to work in the rain

When I first heard about the "Ultimate Invasion" event, I thought they were going to literally have characters from the original Ultimate Universe invade Earth 616, due to the bunch of illustrations showing characters from that universe.

[@DaellusKnights]

I don't normally give much thought to Hank Pym in 616 outside of how that one accidental panel did him dirty (they COULD have fixed that, instead of leaning into it), but I DO love how they disassociate THIS Hank from that one in one simple, but subtle way... Seeing what our Hank was like and what happened with him, instead of being arrogant and thinking "Oh I can be better than that because I'm the ReallySmartGuy!" it terrified him because he didn't want to become THAT person. That alone sets up a good baseline for a much different Hank.

[@cachondorider]

The first issue got me hooked. Especially when Cap was talking to Hank. I felt it.

I got really into comics about 10 years ago. About 5 or 6 years ago I kind of got out of it and I forgot why. When the new ultimate stuff came out I figured it would be a good time to get back into it. I remember why I got out of comics.
