I don't know much about Apocalypse from the comics, but some from the two different cartoon series I've seen him in. Alright, so Ultimate Apocalypse works. Very cool villain for the Ultimate series. The arc should've been longer, though. The first chapter or so was a mini Shadow King thing. Not very interesting at all. I mean, they were building this up and it kind of falls flat here.
Well, that's okay, because the rest of the book is pretty cool...until the end.

I was reviewing an Ultimate Fantastic Four volume and started thinking about one of the main problems I have with the Ultimate universe line: that so many characters and events are brought about because it seems like the writers have to mirror what's happened in the original 616 universe. And not only are they brought to mirror 616, but characters are killed off or storylines are resolved so fast that there's little reason to care.
This volume is the best example I can think of. In the ... Read More

First of all let me say this. I think Robert Kirkman has saved the Ultimate X-men!!
This story arc is awesome. There is action on every page! And cop-out? The man (Kirkman) left both stories open ended for a possibility for these great historic villains to maybe and hopefully come back in the future.
This story follows right after the Cable/ Sentinel sagas (which is another great X-men story) and gets right to it. The X-men are disbanded Bishop is leading the new field team. ... Read More

This is a real mishmosh. The art isn't anything special and doesn't flow very well. The first issue, about Ororo and the Shadow King, makes next to no sense and answers almost no questions about anything. And the Apocalypse arc should have been either greatly expanded -- or scrapped. The ending reeks of deus ex machina. A number of great, classic X-Men stories have been rolled up and squashed into one convoluted storyline that's hard to follow. Marvel needs some better writers on UXM, fast, or they need ...

The Ultimate run on the X-men has been consistently exciting - until now. This uneven collection of issues is arguably the weakest X-men title I've read for some time and unworthy of the high standards the book has set. Apocalypse is a cliche, and there's really nothing interesting about reading a story that you can figure out, or where the outcome doesn't matter. The colours and style of this issue aren't quite as gripping either. Marvel needs to rest the X-men or find better storytellers. Or as they've ... Read More
