I'm only on the second issue but this was an amazingoing read.

What does /co/ think of the new ultimates run?
>>
>>82328598
Awesome.
>>
>>82328598

It's the best marvel book currently if you like the meta stuff.

It is what the new FF could have been.
>>
>>82328598
I didn't like it until they left the omniverse. Then the story of Blue Marvel and all the meta commentary by galactus got me. So once i read issue 5 i went bsck and bought the rest.

I hate OP teams that just fight bigger and bigger threats but this is not it. The meta talk about the 'reboot' got me liking it
>>
>>82328756
This was the feel I was getting. It feels very FF but I love the cast so far.
>>
>>82328825
Never heard of Blue Marvel before picking this up. Guessing from capMarvel books. Any recommended reads?
>>
>>82329801
He has a self-titled mini that gives his backstory.
>>
>>82328598
It's like Fantastic Four meets The Authority, and I'm a huge fan of both, so I love it.
>>
I keep trying to get started on it, but it's difficult because I don't care at all about any of the main characters.
>>
>>82329801
His origin story is told in Legend of the Blue Marvel. It's not very good but it's probably worth reading if only to know where he came from, though as I said, it's kinda shitty. There was also a one-shot where he fights King Hyperion in Age of Heroes #3 that's worth checking out since it shows how he came out of retirement.

The recommend reading for him would be Ewing's Mighty Avengers followed by Captain America and the Mighty Avengers. It's by the same writer as The Ultimates so that's the best thing to read for more of him.
>>
>>82329944
I see how that can be a problem.
This month had a good issue about Galactus and the previous issue featured him heavily. Does that interest you?
>>
>>82329996
Exactly.
>>
>>82330030
Im Way too high for your question buddy
>>
Better than I expected it to be. Juggling too much to actually be good.

Good-Galactus, Eternity in chains, Thanos, and that's not counting the story of the team members. It's Game of Thrones writing, fuck resolving plot lines, just keep stacking more on top and hope they all tie each other up in the end.
>>
>>82329996
So far it deals with this fact perfectly. By not bringing it up in any way shape or form.
>>
>>82330030

......dude..

Yes, it's great. My favorite Marvel book right now.
>>
>>82330210
This your first time reading a comic anon?
>>
>>82329996
Funny thing, but I don't mind since they are all pre-existing, all pretty useful in their own ways and apart from BP and Carol, all would not be used by anyone but Ewing. The majority of Blue Marvel's appearances have been by Ewing by now.

Yeah, If only there was a corps of some kind adept at that, one that is somehow based around a country in the northwest of europe.

One that is somehow magically attuned to be the central point of all dimensions.

How the fuck does she even know dimension hopping other than being a godly mary sue.

The last 3 issues have been amazing, I really enjoy all the meta commentary in the comic. Also, the art is great.

Yeah, she's not Qualified, she's a punchy latino lesbian who is as smart as a brick and could easily be replaced by someone like Captain Britain or Doctor Voodoo or someone actually versed in the Metaphysical and Multiversial.

She is a shit character. She drags the entire thing down.

She's like Tumblr's Dr. Who persona or some shit.
>>
>>82330694
Carol CAN be an argument but she is very suited for it. This is a cosmic team and she has a lot of experience there. Also they need a good pilot and that is her training.

If anyone doesn't belong it is Monica or BP. But BP is funding it and Monica is there for synergy powers between blue marvel and Carol.

It's actually a well thought out team
>>
>>82331235
You have to think beyond powers anon. She fits cause of her character she also brings some fun to an otherwise stoney and uninteresting team. You need different personalities to make this interesting. The entire roster but her and monica (?) Are military.
>>
>>82331069
this, or post a batch with the latest released issues
>>
>>82331260
It's really not.

Carol is A) not a good pilot, you could have filled that with fucking Hawkeye.
B) She's barely cosmic shit, she just is a hammie down Captain Marvel.

BP funding it makes sense.
Monica is a leader and has muscle
Blue Marvel is smart

What the fuck is America? "Oh I know Dimensions?" Bitch is like the least qualified.

Fucking Howard the Duck.

Carol you can use as a fly away, but not America.

She's literally worthless and adds nothing.
>>
>>82331235
>or someone actually versed in the Metaphysical and Multiversial.

We have been over this anon, she is versed in multiversal things anon you just refuse to accept it because you have a hate boner for her.
>>
>>82331357
>We need to have an annoying and sassy not-latina who punches things
>Because the team is stoney

They are entirely fucking interesting in and of themselves, America is actually the least fun out of ALL of them.
>>
>>82331376
What are her Qualifications?

"Jumping between dimensions" is not a Qualification no matter how much you handwave it.

I hate her because she's a shit character.
>>
>>82331362
>Monica is a leader and has muscle
but she isn't the leader in this and they all have muscle any strong person could fill in for monica.
>>
>>82331418
Because has fought the threats they are tackling it has been covered in the comic book itself.
>>
>>82331473
>Because has fought threats

So literally any basic level dimension hopper could take her place, without being a blackhole of personality around her.

Go ahead, name the threads and how America is so UNIQUE and her INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE she brings to the team.

Fuck it, Just replace her with Spider UK.

There, I made the Ultimates 10000% better.
>>
>>82331533
>any basic level dimension hopper
except there aren't many around.

the Cap Brits Corp is dead, too.
>>
>>82331575
Spider UK survived I'm pretty sure of that.

Also It's plenty an excuse to bring them back instead of the most airheaded dumbass dimension hopper ever.
>>
>>82331575
Pretty sure Brian Braddock is alive as is Spider UK.

Also it allows access to Marvel UK and their meta shit.
>>
>>82331362
Hawkeye would die on this team. Carol can fly in space and has way more experiences in space. Or are you forgetting all her X-Men stuff? Shes the most experienced on the team with space
>>
>>82331649
>Carol can fly in space and has way more experiences in space. Or are you forgetting all her X-Men stuff?

So does literally everyone because Ms.Marvel is a fucking train wreck.

Also, You're saying this like BP wouldn't be fucking dead too, Silver surfer armlocks aside.

Why do we need Carol when we have Monica AND Blue Marvel.

We have like 3 Marvels and Carol is objectively the worst one.

What exactly does Carol "handle" that isn't just fucking punching things and or/ blasting things?

Black panther is not a normal human and he rarely goes on trips with them. Fucking read the god damned book. If he has to go out to the field he teleports. Carol doesnt fill just the punching role. She is pilot and xeno experience. You fail to address the qualifications everytime you god damn shitposter.

Would hawkeye invent a teleporter so he can join team fights? No. BP DID.

you havent read it yet obviously so pay attention tto the storytime
>>
>>82331810
His powers are that he is superman with 5 PHDs. Also his creation kinda split the powers into two people one good one destructive. Read the storytime for more info issue 4 i think. Its worth the payoff
>>
>>82331894

Issue 3 explains the are not just looking for people w/ experience. And, when they need a specialist they are "not too big to ask an expert"

Monica is living light, and can alter her spectrum to be different forms of light and energy.

Blue Marvel is a flying brick combined with "anti-matter manipulation" which basically means he can shoot energy blasts and manipulate different kinds of energy.
>>
>>82331975
Actually I read this first issue when it was story timed.

It's alright. The problem is basically. It's an okay writer using the most bare bones level of "WoooOOOOooo meta stuff WoooOOOOo" to make things seem semi-interesting.

Like I said, Blue Marvel, cool as fuck, I like space science man.

BP being ground control, Cool as fuck, at least he and Wakanda are doing shit.

But the rest.... Why? Why have them there? They don't "Explore" or give plot reasons.

Carol is a bus driver. Monica? Miss America?

>>82332051
So what the fuck is Miss America then? She's fucking worthless. She is literally a Fanfiction character, now we're supposed to assume she's a master dimension hopper too?

It has potential, but sadly, all of that is in BP and Blue marvel and the rest of them fucking slow them down HARD.

Major Tom Blue Marvel would be awesome with him just exploring the cosmos and relaying it to BP back on earth.

You expect every character to have a moment to shine in 18 pages? Holy fuck anon. Its free for you to read in this thread. Make the minimal effort.

I said before it wasnt until issues 4&5 that i was sold. Not all the characters have has their moments yet but those got me into the story and the dynamics of the characters.

Again, have your read teams books. Most of the time some characters dont get anything special for a long fucking time. More than 5 issues for sure. This handles them much better

Do you think there is a better team book out now that explores each and every one of the characters better?

She's most definitely a plot point. But considering one of the things that goes on in the comic is them travelling outside the multiverse, she hardly hampers the comic, more like pushes the narrative forward. Fairly certain this more than answers your "what does she add" question.

Miss America is a blight on an otherwise perfect comic. Look at her very first lines

And then she also punches things real good, and is like totally sassy too.

She's a fucking bore.

I read pretty much every thing the character has appeared since Vengence, but i never had any reaction towards her other than she exists.
But the stupid triggered way you are acting is making see the character on a whole other light, if it bothers a faggot like you, then she must have something interesting that i overlooked.
So thanks for that.

You know, I am actually curious. Who actually thinks this is good? Like who legit thinks this is worthy of the cosmic stint?

This is like Secret Wars Doomworld shit tier "Cosmic"

Where instead of exploring strange lands, witnessing the unfolding of universal ideals while tackling metaphysical concepts and the structure of a narrative... we have the SJW patrol finding the Macguffin and pulling an AXIS on Galactus with tons of star trek speak at the start.

What do people find good about this?

Who said I like Miss America? You asked what she adds, I answered she's there to be their multiversal schoolbus. Unlike you, who clearly can only see things in black and white, I neither like nor dislike her presence in the comic, merely acknowledge it. I don't fap furiously to her being included in the comic, but at the same time I do not shit up threads with distaste for her.

Actually, I have been pondering who you could replace, and really.

It can be fucking anyone because when you say "Multiversial" That means fucking nothing.

Shit like Limbo and the Dark Dimension and Asgard and the nine realms were all a fairly abstract association with each other.

Fuck, you could use Beta Ray Bill, Just fucking fly via rune magic.

It opens up far more shit to explore and question than the magical tumblr girl.

a shitload of people. I've been in several storytimes and the reaction here on /co/ is always positive. I'm not going to bother explaining anything to you, because you're a stupid asshole. either read it, or don't. If you don't read it, feel free to shut the fuck up, because no one cares about your opinion.
>>
>>82334054
Well, my opinion is just as valid as yours. Morso in fact because it's not blinded by your sheer stupidity to see how mediocre this is.

The Story has been done before, and the story has little here to go with.

I mean they already did the "But what if we stop Galactus from eating worlds"

It's poorly written.

Hell, the issue right after this has the head of the Shi'Ar call her directly. Not Black Panther, America Chavez, or even Blue Marvel.

Like I said, we could argue that putting Carol "Kill All Skrulls and drink all the booze" Danvers in that position is a bad idea, but that's literally what she's doing now.

The diversity of the team hasn't been brought up at all. It's a lot better than "Hey guys look this all new all different line up with a single white male". If the race of a character somehow distracts you from the story you must be pretty dumb.

Technically he's already busy doing Ultimate shit, just Ultimate shit that isn't based around 616, which is what this team is doing. He does it across the multiverse.

Also Ewing mentioned the letter pages that Giant-man would be back in a big way, so I'm guessing they're going to the Macroverse soon. Which promises to be amazing.
>>
>>82331533
The Brit Corps is dead, and Spider UK isn't a natural dimension shifter. He uses a gizmo (and the web of life) to travel the multiverse. He's currently stuck in steampunk earth because his gizmo is broken. You'd know all of this if you actually bothered to read comicbooks about the characters you spout off.

I haven't read that series, but I'm guessing Ewing prefers giving light to lower tier characters, and Scott doing smart shit would sort of conflict with his current direction in his book. Plus Ewing can do more with him character-wise than Scott if he's going to be reoccurring.

Not saying Scott wouldn't be better, just that I'm fine with the new Giant-man.

Well Adam, Monica, and Carol actually sync with each other really well power wise. Monica can turn into energy, Adam can manipulate it/power it up, and Carol can absorb it to become more powerful.

So Adam can give Monica a power boost then Carol can absorb Monica to get a double-power boost. Using their powers in tandem, they'd be able to reach insane power levels.

>Superflow is literally the bleed though.
Morrison didn't create The Bleed, Warren Ellis did.

Likewise, Ewing didn't create The Superflow, Warren Ellis did.

I know Morrison didn't create it. And didn't know about superflow. So Ellis used same idea in stofmwatch and for Marvel?

Writers are inherently lazy creatures and like reusing things when they can get away with it. Hell, Issue six of this is retreading the whole Narrative thing Ewing did in Loki:AoA.

As long as it's executed somewhat new or twisted interestingly it's okay though, imo.

For the most part. The Superflow also has the whole "dreams" element that isn't part of The Bleed. See, the original New Universe's Nightmask's power was that he could access people's dreams, so when he re-imagined it into newuniversal, he basically re-used The Bleed for The Superflow but with the added element of The Superflow being what consciences access when we dream, so while Ellis' Nightmasks power was to access the bleed/superflow, he had to tie it back into the original Nightmask's power to access dreams, so he kinda blended the two together. There were a lot of neat ideas in newuniversal that unfortunately didn't go anywhere since he abandoned the project after his harddrive with all of his scripts and info for it got fried.

One thing I liked about The Superflow was the idea that Zeitgeists were reflected as literal weather patterns within the superflow. It's a conceptual space so what would just be ideas or memes in the real world were represented by things like storms in the superflow. That's why when Galactus and Master Order/Lord Chaos fight in the superflow, it's a battle of ideas and metaphors rather than an actual battle. Galactus punching Order is him defeating Order with the power of ideas and concepts.

I like the additional reading thing. You can call it shilling, and it is, but having read the issues they do provide interesting context to the stories.

On contrary. Since book is the closest thing that there is to a Morrisonian cosmic Epic rn, I'm loving the hell out of it.

I like that its not always current titles that they're pushing, but mostly older issues.

Love the covers on this book by the way.They use a lot of blank space and tend to make the characters look dynamic even if they're still.

Morrison was one of the four creators of hypertime (and according to Waid he was the one that came up with the "everything is true" approach and also the one who designed it). And Ewing totally ripped hypertime in issue #5

And it was fucking awesome
