Ultimates #9 Spoilers/Discussion

[Codah]

Oh I don't know, Captain America hearing about it?

That's true. Man, he is going to flip his shit. I bet the first line out of his mouth in his return appearance is going to be feel like a brick to the head. GOD, this comic is good. It hasn't been this good since Ultimates 1 & 2. With Brian Wood coming on Ultimate X-Men, the UU is going to be as good as it's ever been.

Only if he can explain everything from the past twelve issues. Wood, I love ya, but man are your hands full.

So only Zorn had any chances against the People. That makes sense considering how easily they dealt with Asgardians.

And I like how Hickman is remodeling everything with every issue, not worrying about consequences. I don't know what title was offered to him instead of Ultimates, but I'm sure he will not have even 10% of freedom with the story he has now. Let's hope Humphries will be as good.

EDIT: Also, big thing happening in the next issue? Captain America stepping in as the leader of the free world.

If I wasn't such a goddamn man, I would be crying about how fucking glorious this comic is.



Can anyone say Captain America for president.

[Hostile_17]

I've read it twice through and I'm still speechless!

Hickman certainly went out on a big note!!

Glad we have the next issue in only two weeks time.

Im looking forward to seeing how Humphries is going to pick up the pieces

If Spencer manages to go out with a bang in the next two issues of X-Men too, then we'll have a fantastic set-up for the crossover event.

So excited!!

I just edited my post to say the same. I will be surprised if it doesn't happen.

Not the thread to get into this, but I really don't think well get much explanation in his first few arcs. He's even said as much.

As long as it all gets explained at some point down the line I'm happy. I'd rather he just tell his own kick ass story in the middle of this new world for now and worry about Spencer's Longform mystery plot points later.

Humphries said The Captain wont be making his comeback until issue #13!

So what do we all think will go down in the next two issues?

Peace between the Children and the People? Both sides suffered incredible losses.

[Kurolegacy]

This issue certainly made me officially sick of The People. WAY too overpowered.

I had that same thought but with the Children. I'm already tired of reading about them.

[Hostile_17]

I can't see the Children going for that myself? But I really don't know.

I think next issue well see a lot about the new S.H.I.E.L.D set up and Iron Man & Thor helping Spider-woman and Captain Britain escape.

I also think The People might put the blame for their losses on Fury & Co and try and hold them responsible in some way.

It really could go anywhere from here

Next issue of X-Men out on the same day solicits "the face of The United States is changed forever" so I'm hoping they are tieing the timelines in somehow, setting the groundwork for Divide We Fall!

[Samorai_black]

Its a real shame that this book is not higher on the charts. This was shocking, something that is rare in super hero comics. If the major stories took place in Germany or aroudn that area this wouldnt seem so big but as thsi takes place in America this was huge. It's hard to believe a book can be this epic in feeling so long.


Thank you Jonathan Hickman.

I remember that cover issue with the Whitehouse still up and not blown away for Ultimates 13 I think. But that might just be because its a cover.

This was just phenominally mind-(and USA)-blowing! I can't wait to see what happens next! I can't believe they actually did that!

I wonder if this thing with Tony will lead to the end of the movie armor.

Ajlso, a little off topic, but I wonder if this will be reflected at all in Miles' book. Will school be cancelled for a while? Will his parents flip out? Will he get a little freaked, or will he just keep on keepin' on?

something tells me Ganke will have a funny comment about it between sips of his juice box. that will probably be the extent of it.
