Looks like the Ultimate Universe may be coming to a close. Think it's a good idea. They made the Ultimate universe to entice the film industry into picking up marvel properties and they obviously don't need that now. Gonna guess that Miles will somehow make it to 616 if it does happen.

Managed to snag the Thunderbolts marvel legends toy set from hasbro's site today when they put up the comicon leftovers, but sadly, missed out on the Deadpool Taco truck full of the Deadpool Corps.. shit must have sold out in minutes.

There is just so much still going on in UXM :/

**Delirium** · 2013-07-24 16:01

Rucka, Lark, and Arcus are fucking killing it on Lazarus. Forever would beat the fuck outta just about anyone.

**Kyo** · 2013-07-25 08:53

Yeah Lazarus is pretty damn awesome so far, right up there with saga and batman for me.

**grantlogan** · 2013-07-25 14:42

Anyone read Uncanny Avengers? Holy Guacamole things are goin down. Sentry is still batshit crazy, I'm thinking resurrecting him wasn't such a good idea on the twins part.

Remender is just killing it on both UA and Captain America. He is likely my favorite writer right now.

Doc Ock has gone crazy in SSM. Taking out Shadowland like that(and good riddance). Will be interesting to see...

Spoiler: show

**Krandor** · 2013-07-25 19:05

SSM 14 was pretty sweet, liking that even the villains are figuring out something is off with him.

Wondering when they're going to pickup on Carlie again though, or if that's just sitting on the wayside for the next few months.

**grantlogan** · 2013-07-25 22:24

So with Galactus potentially eating/destroying the Ultimate Universe, who do you think will make the leap over to the 616? I'm sure Galactus will come back to the 616 but of the Ultimate characters, I think Miles will be the only one to also come to the 616.

Spoiler: show

**Delirium** · 2013-07-25 23:03

I can't see any Ultimates character other than Miles. None serve any purpose.

**Krandor** · 2013-07-25 23:20

Ultimate Reed making the jump could be entertaining, but yeah, I don't see anyone other then Miles surviving if they end up killing the universe off.

**grantlogan** · 2013-07-25 23:21

Regarding Ultimate, I haven't read X-Men since the civil war stuff and I just read the most recent issue. Why is Jean so intent on starting this war?

**Delirium** · 2013-07-25 23:27

She is a double agent working with Zorn, afaik

**grantlogan** · 2013-07-25 23:40

Why Zorn do dat.

**Vagrant** · 2013-07-26 16:39

Seems they going to go a cheap way and have the Phoenix start driving Jean nuts again going by the last page. Would be nice if they came up with something else there.

Seems Marvel is working on their next wave of NOW titles with Black Widow, Silver Surfer, and a brand new character getting solo titles sometime down the road.

Zorn and Xorn wanted all the mutants in Tian, iirc. Jean was working for Nick Fury as Karen Grant. She then joined the Xorn twins in Tian and started going by Jean Grey again. Because of mutants being developed by the government and all the persecution they have gone through, Jean feels that mutants can only be safe. A division like Utopia will show the world mutants are weak and provoke more violence against them. So her solution, it seems, is to destroy Utopia and capture the mutants there.

it's something I really need to go back and read again to make sure I have it all right.

MAA: How's everyone doing on demonic lockboxes? The shortened length of the spec ops plus the lowered reward of LB's from the LB quests is really lowering the quantity. So far I've only opened 30 LB's, last 10 gave me a duplicate cover...I look forward to season 2 with more gold as rewards so I can buy more LB's.

**grantlogan** · 2013-07-27 02:28

Holy fuck, another duplicate on my next 10.

**Delirium** · 2013-07-27 08:04

7 of 8 for Satana. like 9 duplicates in a row

only lockbox I ever had a problem with was the Juggernaut cause I didnt pvp at all.
