Is Marvel's NEW Ultimate Universe BETTER Than The Old One?

Publicado 2024-04-21
What's up guys? Today we are reviewing everything Marvel has done so far with the Ultimate Universe, and comparing how it sizes up to the one that came before. The original Ultimate Universe was obviously iconic and revolutionized not only Marvel as a brand, but also the comic industry as a whole. So to see it make such a strong, significant return has been VERY exciting. My question is, though: do they have what it takes to maintain that and continue to hit all of the strong points that they've hit already? What is this universe doing differently from the one that came before? What are they doing right, what are they doing wrong? That's what we're going to find out...in this video!

    The original ultimate universe was pretty much hard carried by Spider-Man 😂

    It’s not a home run. It’s more of a double. It’s basically the Ultimate universe of the Ultimate universe. I like the idea of a middle aged Peter Parker becoming a hero, juggling his family life with a hero in middle class lifestyle. I like the idea of Wakanda as an absolute monarchy, struggling with its past and warring with its neighbors over technology. It’s Wakanda West Wing meets the Crown. I like the idea of the X-men as seen by a non-American female.
  • Well this new Ultimate Universe doesn’t have cannibalism, incest, and it’s actually giving Spider-Man fans the story we’ve been asking for since One More Day. ……. OF COURSE IT’S BETTER THAN THE OLD ONE!
  • @forgottenmessiah
    Ultimate Spider-Man is everything to me right now, last 3 years for 616 Spider-Man was a disaster
  • @Invaderbob7
    I've read Black Panther my entire life and just when I was losing hope. We got ultimate Black Panther. Amazing art style, phenomenal suit, refreshing character dynamics without betraying the core concepts of each of the main cast. Magnificent. But in the mainline Black Panther ever since the end of the 'intergalactic empire' Arc, Not only the art style but the story has just been so terrible. Even if the art style was better I could stomach it but it feels like Marvel's not hiring anyone with art styles that complement the story at all. Nothing the current artists are bad is just that there's a right person for every job and these people ain't it

    I'm glad we are getting Peter in a more mature point in his life and he has a family with MJ. I'm worried that something awful will happen.
  • @TS17ADS
    4:42 even in this comic we can't escape from that killmonger hair cut
  • Okay, so that Ultimate X-Men is literally Manga-styled. I love it. It's so cool how they boldly switched to this approach for the X-Men.
  • @sevensvn5391
    I'd say we might actually know a lot about The Ultimates given a certain interview with Deniz Camp and the fact that it's basically a direct follow up to Ultimate Invasion and Ultimate Universe #1.
  • @endamcnabola
    I just hope it can get more titles maybe Guardians of the Galaxy, Nova, Inhumans, etc.
  • @readmorecomix
    I'm enjoying all three Ultimate universe titles.... Ultimate spider-man being my favorite. I still get excited for the next issue of each.
  • @James-kv3ll
    The new X-men character’s design is really cool. I like the aesthetic style of the book.
  • @seanking8427
    1:36 Ultimate Spider-Man is my favorite both in the old (1610) and new (6160)
  • @lukeamparo6586
    Weird they started X-Men with the girl from the X-Men anime. Hisako and her armor powers. I think her code name was armor too. She’s also considered one of Wolverine’s surrogate daughters along with Jubilee, Kitty Pride, X23, etc.
  • I love the new Ultimate run too. I’m glad Black Panther is having his day in the sun, especially within the Ultimate universe.
  • Well Spiderman and the X Men where the only ones carrying it despite X Men could have been a little better with characters. So yeah having a new one where all the series are equal to each is a good idea. Especially how different The Avengers are.
  • @Animemus
    With how Japanese centric the new Ultimate X-Men comic is I feel like they could’ve done Ultimate Big Hero 6 instead. Disney isn’t making a sequel and they haven’t appeared in Earth-616 since I think Ends of the Earth so plop it into this universe. Armor’s powers basically the same as Fredzilla’s.
  • @BIGBMH
    While I think there's potential in this new set of titles, it rubs me the wrong way to call them "Ultimate." It feels like a cheap marketing tool. Let it be its own thing. To me, giving it the name of the former universe creates a sense of replacing and erasing what came before. USM in particular deserves a little more respect than having its title given to a series that makes no effort to carry its story and legacy forward.
  • @Saxjon
    This is my first comic series that I read that I read an entire issue. The first series I'm reading seriously, and it has been amazing! Every line of dialog in Black Panther GOES HARD! Ultimate X-Men looks like it belongs to the same universe as the rest of the series, so that's exciting, too!
