If you mean Ultimate Kaine that was part of USM and more or less ended there. They're teasing an Ultimate Scarlet Spider though so who knows

Was that part of Millar's return or Humphries'? I have no memory of that

It's also going to introduce a mysterious Scarlet Spider. I doubt it'll be Peter though, possibly a clone but probably someone else entirely

Unmature posted:I hope Peter never comes back. He's on of my favorite characters in comics history, but I've never seen anything like it in comics. They killed the flagship character of an imprint and let a black kid take over. That's amazing. It's what the Ultimate Universe should be about. Not just the same stories told in a new way, but something totally different. I really can't see Bendis getting rid of Miles, at least.

Unmature posted:Is Final Crisis still worth reading post-New52? For some reason I've just never read it despite loving Morrison and DC at that time. Yeah but it's vvvveeerrryyyy morrison so read it, then read a companion, then read it a few more times. I didn't like it at all when I first read it and now it's one of my favorite books. Also if you're not getting the TPB make sure you get Superman Beyond

WoK is mostly garbage anyways, unless you're really interested in the Shi-ar and Summers family for some reason.

zoux posted:Do I have to read AoU first? I wouldn't recommend it. All you really need to know is people time traveled too much and broke the universe, which wound up dumping Galactus in the UU I would recommend reading the Ultimate Gah Lak Tus books again, as well as Ultimate Vision, but neither one's super important. (Both are great, though)

He pretty much did. Parker gets back to 616 and googles Miles Morales, then he gasps at what he finds. THE END. TO BE CONTINUED?

Bendis isn't exactly prompt with this stuff, but it got shelved for a while due to Superior Spider-Man so hopefully soon.

Mr. Maltose posted:Less greed and more ego. Reed Richards, First Man To Put Himself In Space instead of Reed Richards, CEO of Richards Aerospace. Another parallel with Doom, who's accident reinforced his hubris Yes. FF works a lot better if the accident was caused by Reed pushing things too far out of arrogance.

In UFF it was a teleporter to the negative zone. I think a spaceship still works better, but just make it so they're going through a wormhole or testing a warp drive or something

Sturm posted:So most of the stuff that Marvel is putting out has been pretty good, was thinking about trying to get into some DC but I hear the opposite is true. I liked Earth 2 but I stopped reading after Robinson left, also just finished reading Demon Knights which starts really good but ends a bit weak when the creative teams change

Yeah muscles pretty much covered it but Loeb did not give one poo poo about continuity so he wrote pretty much everyone out of character

Jack Gladney posted:What makes this so tin-eared though is that she's a white person yelling at black characters about real-life racism to make a point about a fictional, made-up minority. Like, that's getting the lesson completely backward if you're schooling a real-life minority that gets actual poo poo in order to teach a lesson about the fantasy vehicle designed to teach kids about racism. It's not like minorities haven't oppressed other minorities before. When you have stuff like TERFs and the strong Black support for Prop8 I think it's a bit more relevant.

Love of Supreme depends on when you read it, because it's the same deconstruction Moore's written over and over again. It's cool but if you've read a lot of his 80s and 90s stuff it's not exactly groundbreaking

A Strange Aeon posted:Speaking of editorial decisions, I was wondering about the history of reader input on storylines. The big example I can think of is Jason Todd getting killed, but have there been other similar reader votes? Would something like that ever happen today when it seems like the writer's integrity holds a lot more value for the fans? The Marvel vs DC stuff that lead up to Amalgam is probably the biggest one I can think of
