why did it lose to Absolute? It had like a year head start
All of the writers except Hickman suck ass
Idea Guy the comic lineExcept you need someone on scripts, plot and a cohesive narrative because what do you mean you go from this amazing issue of Maker fucking over 6160 Reed’s entire life to Tony make Bluesky
>>150924040How did Camp even land Ultimates, he's genuinely stupid.
>>150924063Being unintelligent is in no way a barrier to writing or drawing comics
>>150923958the "two years until we're fucked" thing ruined usm and ultimates, any time there's something happening they have to rush it just to stick to that deadline. black panther might as well have been in 616 for how little changed, uxm should have been it's own line, and wolverine is just boring so far.
>>150924540Ultimates sucks because the writer sucks
>>150924001Hickman sucks too.
It's all just more of the same. Nothing different substance and style-wise from the mainline shit. That and the timeskips killed it completely.
You're naive if you think Absolute also won't be shitting the bed within a year or two. The year head start is the reason why.>>150924063Hickman recommended him.
>>150925417>Hickman recommended him.You need to learn that stuff like that is total PR bullshit
>>150923958The monthly timeskips ruined the storytelling of evey book except maybe The Ultimates. It just made each issue a highlight instead of a true chapter of a story.
>>150925173>Nothing different substance and style-wise from the mainline shit.But Peter is le mature family man here. Isn't this what everyone wanted? Isn't this completely different?
>>150923958There is no unifying theme. Every Absolute book has the 'heroes but without all the initial advantages' thing going on.Ultimate, in theory has the whole 'Maker messed everything up' but you can't really feel it sometimes. Ult. Spider-Man barely deals with the Maker. Ultimates should deal with him and his council, but the book is more concerned with grassroot heroism. X-Men could be happening in literally any other alt. universe. And so on.Also, Ultimate Incursion was such a misstep.
>>15092406320th Century Men was kind of a Watchmen version of The Avengers. I guess Hickman wanted more of that. Problem is that 20th Century Men was carried by the artist.
who says they lost ?
>>150923958Honestly? Because anything that happens is irrelevant to whenever Maker is release.
>establish the Maker's Dozen as the main villains while the Maker is away>do absolutely nothing with them, have them lose offscreen or forgot about them entirely to do your own thingPoor planning
>>150925510Hackman is free to correct him. https://gatecrashers.fan/2024/06/05/ultimates-deniz-camp-interview/>How did you end up landing the gig? Was it this first, was it Children of the Vault or was it the 3W3M project you’re doing with Stipan Morian? How did it come together?>The 3W3M thing was separate, they reached out to me. I think Jon(athan) had read 20th Century Men. He really liked it and thought I would be a good fit for there.
>>150927081Oh, I was right.
what is hickman doing next
>>150926588>Maker's Dozen
>>150928687Hopefully resigning.
>>150928687Jumping to DC
>>150929415fuck off dcbot
Bump
>>150923958When does Paul rape Dylan? Because he’s definitely gonna rape Dylan. The Polish are the reason.
>>150930644this is what /co/ does to your brain .
>>150930644What!?
>>150929865Fuck DC and fuck you.
>>150923958Black Panther is not Batman, no matter how open that mouthpiece is. Ultimate X-Men is lacking the superior Hisako Armor.Ultimate Spider-Man is too mixed up with Bendis.
>>150924564The artist sucks too.
USM leaks?
>>150928687Hopefully becoming DC's problem.
>>150923958>why did it lose to Absolute? It had like a year head start- The month long time skips between issues- Batman and Superman still more popular than all of marvel- Aboslute Wonder Woman being good
>>150935401Nope.
>>150936270Absolute is also a lot weirder in general. 6160 being similar to 616 is even referenced in Ultimates. The character dynamics are different, but none of them are radical departures from the originals.
>>150931903you'd like that wouldnt you gayboy ?
