In case you were wondering how Spider-Man died this week...

[samurainoir]

Punisher shot him.

But gosh darn if this t'aint a nice Frank Cho cover.


Not that this cover is a spoiler, 'cause Punisher's not actually wearing his Captain America black ops outfit when he does it. Although he was aiming to shoot Cap hisself.

(also, insert obligatory Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark potshot here)

[BlackKnight]

How can Punisher Even walk around with them Metal Feet ? & I thought He was Franken-Castle ???

[aquatroy]

It's the Ultimate Universe.

[The Toyroom]

Yeah it's Ultimate Spidey not 616 Spidey...

[LonnieFisher]

Killing the "ultimate Spider-man"? Good!!! Kill the whole "ultimate" universe!!!!!

[MIB41]

Killing the "ultimate Spider-man"? Good!!! Kill the whole "ultimate" universe!!!!!

I think it's funny how Marvel now has the problem DC thought they had in the 80s. All the multiple earths are REALLY hard to keep a part nowadays. Some folks at DC thought so, although I never had trouble with it, and I was like, seven!

Agreed! And now, DC goes through all the trouble of reinstating a multiverse, and they don't populate it. Those Red Circle/Archie heroes should have been in their own universe. Same with Thunder Agents.

I disagree. There's some good stories going on in the Ultimateverse.

I hate all of the changes to the original characters. Just stupid to have more than one version of a character in print month after month.

[samurainoir]

and... the new Spider-man. All ready for his repaint action figure.


Maybe they should have given him the new movie outfit. This one is reminscent of Alex Ross' movie design.

Again, I disagree. The first couple volumes of Ultimates is really good super-hero comics!

Totally agree, The Ultimates by Mark Millar and artist Bryan Hitch was a breath of fresh air taking beloved characters and giving them a fresh new start, I was never so excited and so into a book when they were on it.......and interesting how those versions are the ones that the movies will be loosely based on.....

Caps movie costume is the Ultimates inspired version.....
