I used to be a huge fan of the Ultimate universe. With the exception of Ultimate Spiderman, I have stopped buying any of the Ultimate titles roughly after Ultimatum. The reason was more financial at the time rather than some fan vendetta over the events of Ultimates 3 and Ultimatum.
Any good trade paperbacks since, that anyone would highly recommend? I've been thinkin about getting back in to the Ultimates universe and getting caught up but I don't wanna blow money on the ones that aren't very good or interesting.
Also, I missed Ultimate Origins....worth picking up?
Thanks

Yes, Ultimate Origins was a good one and ties in with both Ultimatum and what's coming after the Death of Spider-Man.
Also, you can't go wrong with Ultimate Avengers 1 and 2. 3 Not so much, but it leads directly into Avengers vs. New Ultimates (which you will also want).
The Enemy Trilogy is a great read, but so far isn't necessary to read.
The Thor mini is a must.
Cap mini was a great read, but again not very relevant to anything important thus far.
And for the most part that's it for what was released after Ultimatum.

You have got to pick up Ultimate Avengers 3, Ultimate Doom and Avengers vs New Ultimates. Those are some of the best

Yea, I truly loved the Ultimates 1 & 2 run. So...the Thor mini is good stuff huh? That would be cool I always did like Ultimate Thor. Is he more like Millar's Thor or Loeb's Thor? (please say Millar's)

Millar's. It leads right into Ultimates 1 via Thor's point of view.
Also, Ultimate X and New Ultimates are worth reading.

I'd pick up Ultimate Avengers 1 & 2.
Ultimate Thor and, when it comes out, Ultimate Avengers vs. New Ultimates.
You can skip out on Avengers 3 without getting too lost.
