I stopped getting Ultimate Spiderman at issue #123, and I want to get back into it. What is the current issue that has been released, how many story arcs have there been since, and trade release dates? Anyone who knows anything, love to hear the feedback!

_Thanks!

You really didn't miss much. The war of the symbiotes concluded with Gwen Stacy being ressurected (the carnage symbiote killed her "host" form and then took over her body. Venom absorbed the symbiote and left her completely normal again.) Then, the venom symbiote was captured by the beetle and at the end of the arc, he was on his way to bring it back to Latveria.

The next issue opened up with some cops bringing in Aunt may for questioning since there was a lot of speculation of Peter being Spider-man. Fortunately for her, the ultimatum wave struck, and the interrogation was ended. This issue also saw an appearance from spider-girl again. When the wave struck, Peter, MJ, Kong, and Kitty were all on the subway going into the city. Peter of course got out of the train after the wave struck to help out the victims. He also teamed up with the hulk for a short period of time before he went crazy again. Also, daredevil died.

In the annual, MJ wanted to go "all the way" with Peter, but she decided that she really wasn't ready after all.

And that's all you missed really. As you can see, nothing monumental happened. For the most part, the quality of the series has been slipping lately.

If you're really that interested, I suggest that you just pick up the issues that you skipped. You only missed 7 issues (8 if you include the annual)

Well 132 was supposed to be out but has been delayed due to crappy Ultimatum and will now be out next month instead

Another important part of USM Annual 3 was that it introduced this universe's version of Mysterio

Yeah but gotta wait for relaunch to see where this leads

Don't bother getting back in to it. All signs point to Peter Parker dying in Ultimatum.

Even if he does that doesn't negate the fact that the issues he hasn't read yet are good and he'll enjoy them.

No worries, I will not buy any more Ultimate titles after Ultimate Woverine Vs Hulk finishes, including USM.

I just started WOTS, and have read everything up to that point. I'm trying to catch up with whats currently going on, as I never really know whats happening.(all I know is that Ultimatum is pretty bad.) And, I don't believe Petey-o will die. He may disappear, "seemingly" dying. And I'm gonna pick up USM vol.2 when it comes out. Maybe by then I'll be caught up, and STAY caught up. :P
