Ultimate Marvel Storytime
>What's being storytimed?
Ultimate Marvel, later known as Ultimate Comics, was an imprint of comic books published by Marvel Comics, featuring re-imagined and updated versions of the company's superhero characters from the Ultimate Universe. The imprint was launched in 2000 with the publication of the series Ultimate Spider-Man and Ultimate X-Men, providing new original stories for the characters. The Marvel Multiverse, which comprises an infinite number of galaxies and alternate universes, calls this universe Earth-1610.
>Why are you doing this?
Because there's a lot of good stuff that people ignored that deserves recognition and even the bad stuff can be fun.
>Why this order?
I originally planned on doing USM to Death of Spider-Man, but I want to do the rest now. I've separated things into groups for convenience.
>Where can I catch up?

Walked into that one
A good evening to you, Mate.
I really loved this arc with Thor and wondering if he was crazy or if he was the real deal
>>83300997
I literally did not understand the appeal of this comic the first time I read it when I was 13-15. It was so obvious that Thor was telling the truth and it upset me to have everyone trying to take him down. I almost quit reading comics because all I was reading was this, Millar UXM, USM, and Bendis Daredevil. It seemed like everything was so cynical and dark and I was turned off by it. Reading it now it's actually really damn good and I shake my head at my 13-15 year old self.

I honestly loved the ultimates up until they shat the universe.
>>83301337
Yeah, fuck Secret Wars.
More on this Hulk stuff later

Bits like this is why I consider Ultimates 2 to be the peak
>>83301361
I meant ultimatum, but you're right: there was still potential in the Ultimate universe after that, even though they kept on fucking up. (I'll never get over the blueballs of the ultimate evil reed arc.)

Remind me, why did Bruce thank Hank here?
>>83301771
Hank was the one who sedated Bruce.
Bruce woke up early and he credits Hank with saving his life.
>>83301771
The implication is that Hank purposely fucked up the drugs so that Bruce would wake up.

Like come on Thor, couldn't you have waited until after you talked down your friends?
Like you had to start with Loki stuff?
Final issue of the night., Unfortunately this thread is all I have time for. I've almost fell asleep twice already. I need to sleep, but will be back tomorrow to storytime all day.
>>83302428
Ah yes, the grunt Giant Men who have a mortality rate of only slightly less than helicarriers.

It's weird reading this arc and actually knowing who these guys are in 616. The first time I read it I assumed they were all OCs since they were so lame
