NYCC 2025: The End Nears for Marvel’s Ultimate Universe

Posted on by

Announced at New York Comic Con, Marvel Comics’ Ultimate Universe concludes next year, bringing an end to a line of blockbuster titles that ignited the industry with bold storytelling and captivating new versions of iconic characters.

During Marvel’s “Next Big Thing Panel,” Head of Marvel Comics and Franchise Dan Buckley, Editor in Chief C.B. Cebulski, Senior Editor Wil Moss, Ultimates writer Deniz Camp, and Ultimate Wolverine writer Chris Condon revealed information on the final issues of all five Ultimate titles to a room of surprised fans: Ultimate Spider-Man #24 in December, Ultimate Black Panther #24 in January, Ultimate X-Men #24 in February, and Ultimates #24 and Ultimate Wolverine #16 in April.

Marvel’s new Ultimate Universe began in June 2023 with Jonathan Hickman and Bryan Hitch’s Ultimate Invasion. The Maker, a dark version of Reed Richards from the original Ultimate Universe, created a world without heroes. Despite his meticulous planning, heroes like Spider-Man and the Ultimates still rose to embrace their destinies—but the trajectory of their journeys were radically altered…

In Ultimate Spider-Man, an older, wiser Peter Parker balanced web-slinging with his responsibilities as a husband and father. In Ultimate X-Men, a group of students in Japan developed strange abilities. Ultimate Black Panther saw Khonshu go to war against the isolated nation of Wakanda. In Ultimates, Iron Lad built a network of heroes to restore freedom to a world ruled from the shadows. And in Ultimate Wolverine, a man named Logan is the Maker’s most lethal weapon: the Winter Soldier!

Ever since the beginning, the Ultimate Universe was built with a predetermined endpoint—the Maker’s return from captivity! The Maker’s release kicks off Ultimate Endgame, a five-issue event series launching in December that brings this interconnected universe together for a climactic showdown.

Told in real time month to month, the Ultimate Universe was an ambitious storytelling project that exceeded all expectations. Now, it ends on a definitive high point, delivering a complete, groundbreaking saga that can be enjoyed by comic fans for generations to come.

The Ultimate Universe will leave its mark on the main Marvel Universe in the way of “Origin Boxes,” the very devices the Maker used to rob legendary heroes of their powers. In Ultimate Spider-Man: Incursion #5, on sale later this month, Miles Morales will swing back to the 616 with a handful of these boxes, setting the stage for new heroes and storylines throughout 2026.

Check out the covers for Ultimate Spider-Man #24, Ultimate Black Panther #24, and Ultimate X-Men #24, and stay tuned for future cover reveals for Ultimates and Ultimate Wolverine, including the final issues. Don’t miss Ultimate Endgame #1, which marks this historic moment with the debut of Marvel’s first-ever Blind Bag program!

The Ultimate Universe Unites Against their Maker this December

Posted on by

This December, Marvel’s Ultimate Universe reaches a critical turning point—one that will determine if it even has a future—in Ultimate Endgame!

In addition to Ultimate EndgameE, the climactic five-issue event that brings together the entire Ultimate line for the first time, December also sees the launch of Ultimate Universe: Two Years In #1, a special one-shot packed with reveals that will impact Ultimate Endgame, as well as the final issue of Jonathan Hickman and Marco Checchetto’s generational run of Ultimate Spider-Man and key issues of Ultimates, Ultimate Black Panther, Ultimate Wolverine, and Ultimate X-Men, each setting the stage for their involvement in the upcoming event.

Written by Ultimates scribe Deniz Camp and drawn by superstar artists Jonas Scharf and Terry Dodson, Ultimate Endgame delivers the ultimate payoff to the epic narrative that Jonathan Hickman began over two years ago in Ultimate Invasion. The Maker, creator of the Ultimate Universe, finally returns and confront the heroes who have brought hope and freedom to a world he once held in his tight grip! The fate of this world—and its future storytelling—will be decided in an epic, multi-front conflict with the Maker and his powerful allies.

The Ultimate Universe has been an industry sensation, and to mark this highly anticipated chapter, Ultimate Endgame #1 will debut True Believe Blind Bags, Marvel’s first-ever bling bag program, giving fans a chance to purchase the issue in special sealed bags that contain one of the issue’s many covers, including variant covers only available in True Believe Blind Bags. The covers exclusive to the True Believe Blind Bags also include secret covers that will remain unrevealed until a lucky fan finds them, creating an exciting opportunity for collectors and a new way for local comic shops to engage with their customer base!

Behold all that’s to come with the reveal of all seven Ultimate issues coming this December:
