Newbie question about Ultimates books

[beep]

Never read any comics before The Ultimates, but I downloaded a few of them and really got into it, so I've started buying the books. Specifically, the hardbacks. Am I right in understanding that this (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0785110828/qid=1140012488/sr=1-4/ref=sr_1_2_4/203-1724888-3079112) is the only Ultimates hardback released so far, and includes all The Ultimates threads up until Ultimates 2? Does anyone know when the hardback for Ultimates 2 is likely to be released?

(the number of spin-offs, team-ups and crossovers is very confusing...)

:)

Yup thats the Ultimates you want (and an awsome read), Vol.2 hasn't ended yet, were still waiting on the last 2 issues, so u may still have a good 3 or 4 months of waiting before u see a hardcover for that one/

I'm still waiting for the Trade Paperback for the 2nd half of Ultimates 2. And the issues are not exactly motoring out of Marvel so yeah.... it's going to be at least May before they come out.

You could always pick up the TPB of the 1st half of Ultimates 2! ;)

Would be nice, just can't afford it. The hardback editions are several issues packaged together at a decent price and there's no way I can buy TPB's for Ultimates, Ultimate Spidey and Ultimate X-Men (which I'm also collecting) and still keep up my book, DVD, games and anime habits. :)


I am seriously geeking out here.

Ah....say no more! I understand that problem 100% ;)

It's was easier to catch up using TPB when there was only like 6 for all of the important parts of the UU. ^_^
