The Fight with the Maker Continues in Ultimate Endgame #2

Posted on by

The final chapter of Marvel’s new Ultimate Universe kicked off last week in Ultimate Endgame #1 by Deniz Camp, Terry Dodson, and Jonas Scharf. Available in multiple covers as well as Marvel’s True Believers Blind Bags, which can contain rare variant covers and one-of-a-kind sketch covers, Ultimate Endgame delivered a shocking reveal…that the Maker has returned in a terrifying new form!

Fans can see all the available covers for Ultimate Endgame #2, arriving on February 4, along with a sneak peek at interior artwork. And with Ultimate Endgame #1 now on stands, it’s time to reveal Mark Brooks’ main cover for issue four, showing the Maker’s new form, and issue five, the pulse-pounding, oversized final issue!

The Maker used time travel to create his ideal Earth by systematically preventing anyone from ever becoming a super hero and establishing a council of super villains that ruled the world from the shadows. But for the past two years, the Maker has been trapped inside The City, and while he’s been away, heroes have emerged, determined to fix the world!

In Ultimate Endgame #1, the heroes of the Ultimate Universe entered The City, where two thousand years have passed. There, they met Immortus, who turned out to be Howard Stark, Iron Lad’s father, who had been trapped there as well. Immortus informed the group that The Maker was now more powerful than ever after he somehow merged with The City itself! Fans can see the monstrosity for themselves as Spider-Man bravely faces the diabolical genius singlehandedly on the newly revealed Ultimate Endgame #4 cover.

And the end has only just begun! In Ultimate Endgame #2, the heroes continue their desperate search for a way to stop the Maker and change the fate of their universe forever. In coming issues, the X-Men, Black Panther, Wolverine, and more will join the fight, all leading up to the cataclysmic showdown with The Maker in Ultimate Endgame #5.

Ultimate Endgame #2 is written by Camp with art by Dodson and Scharf and features a main cover by Mark Brooks and variant covers by Brooks, Tony Daniel, Terry Dodson, Lee Garbett, Jonas Scharf, R.B. Silva, Francesco Mobili, and Stonehouse.

Mini Reviews: The Ultimates #19 and Ultimate Endgame #1

Posted on by
Ultimate Endgame #1

Sometimes, the staff at Graphic Policy read more comics than we’re able to get reviewed. When that happens you’ll see a weekly feature compiling reviews of the comics, or graphic novels, we just didn’t get a chance to write a full one for.

These are Graphic Policy’s Mini Reviews and Recommendations.

Logan

Ultimates #19 (Marvel) – Deniz Camp and Juan Frigeri‘s Ultimates #19 is the character-driven companion to the fireworks of Ultimate Endgame #1. This issue zeroes on The Wasp, her relationship with Hank Pym, and decision to join HAND as a traitor. It’s a bittersweet read and really shows how much Janet cares more Hank despite having to defer their dreams and make moral compromises. Camp is definitely inspired by Hank and Janet’s history in the mainstream Marvel Universe, but adds psychological depth. Finally, Ultimates #19 isn’t just talking heads and longing looks, but Frigeri also shows how much of a badass is in an exciting sequence where she zips through the HAND’s soldiers. Overall: 9.0 Verdict: Buy

Ultimate Endgame #1 (Marvel) – Ultimate Endgame #1 is a decent start to the Earth-6160 concluding event. It really doesn’t get any better than the opening sequence where Deniz Camp and Jonas Scharf has The Maker kill all the Eternals in 1963 with Scharf’s art a twisted mirror of Jack Kirby’s work. All the rest is just setup and getting the main cast of characters under the Dome wrapping up with a half-hearted twist. This might seem like I strongly disliked this issue, but kudos to Camp for making Spider-Man the heart of the comic. I enjoyed his banter with Iron Lad, his last touching moment with his family, and of course, his one-liners/dad jokes as we get really Jonathan Hickman with it. Also, the artist choice was a stroke of genius with Terry and Rachel Dodson handling the more traditional superhero moments, and Scharf drawing the more sci-fi stuff influenced by Kirby as well as 2000 AD/Marvel UK. Overall: 7.6 Verdict: Buy
