ULTIMATE X-MEN / FANTASTIC FOUR
Written by MIKE CAREY
Pencils & Cover by PASQUAL FERRY
“BOOTSTRAP”
Cerebro has been stolen—and the trail points directly at the government’s premier think tank, the Baxter Building! The X-Men aren’t happy about it—especially after the shattering events of last month’s Ultimate X-Men issue. And the Baxter Building’s most famous residents—the Fantastic Four—aren’t happy about an angry team of mutants showing up on their doorstep! It’s FF versus X-Men in an all-star blowout that leads directly into next month’s Ultimate Fantastic Four / X-Men! Ultimate Fantastic Four’s Mike Cary is joined by superstar artist Pasqual Ferry for this tour de force of Ultimate action!

ULTMATE WOLVERINE VS. HULK #1 (OF 6)
Written by DAMON LINDELOF
Pencils & Cover by LEINIL FRANCIS YU
Damon Lindelof, co-creator of the hit TV series Lost teams with superstar artist Leinil Francis Yu to bring their storytelling magic to a tale that will rock the Ultimate Universe! Dr. Bruce Banner has been presumed dead since his execution, following his murderous rampage through Manhattan as the Hulk. But when reports start cropping up of an unidentified creature appearing around the globe, Nick Fury begins to get worried. Not because Banner can turn from man to unstoppable monster in seconds...but because Banner’s existence is the one secret that can bring down Fury. Fury turns to the only man he can trust: Wolverine. And he’s only too glad to take care of Banner—by any means necessary.

SPIDER-MAN/BLACK CAT: EVIL THAT MEN DO #4 & #5 (of 6)
Written by KEVIN SMITH
Pencils & Cover by TERRY DODSON
The wait is over! Finally! No, really. You demanded it, you got it: The conclusion to the series you though would never be finished. When Felicia wakes up behind bars—accused of the murder of the mutant menace known as Klum--there’s only one man (well, two actually) who can save her: Peter Parker and Matt Murdock. But to save their friend, they’re gonna need a little insight into the powers and psyche of the man who put her in the slammer in the first place, insight that can be provided by someone who really understands what makes him tick. Need a hint? Bamf.
