Ultimate X-Men: Concerns, Complications, And Implications For Ultimate Marvel

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

This video covers some of the concerns I have regarding the future of Ultimate X-Men. When this series was announced after Ultimate Invasion, we learned that Peach Momoko will be writing and drawing it. We also learned a bit about the kind of story it’ll tell.

And for the moment, those details have me worried.

I hope those worries are ultimately unfounded. But I thought I’d share them because I think they have major implications for the future of this new Ultimate Universe. Enjoy!

IT’S OFFICIAL: ULTIMATE MARVEL IS RETURNING!

This is another video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World. This video is me reacting to Marvel’s big announcement that Ultimate Marvel is returning. After the events of Ultimate Invasion, Jonathan Hickman is set to launch a rebooted version of the Ultimate Universe for a new generation. Having advocated for this in previous videos, I am very excited about this. But I also have reservations that are worth highlighting as we prepare for this new Marvel universe. Enjoy!

Ultimate Invasion: My (Mixed) Thoughts On The Return Of Ultimate Marvel

This is another video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World. This video is a reaction and response video to Marvel’s recent announcement that they’re revising the world of Ultimate Marvel in June 2023 with Ultimate Invasion. I found this news somewhat striking because a year ago, I made a series of videos arguing that Marvel should reboot the Ultimate Universe. And there’s a real chance we could get something like that with this event. However, based on what little we know about the event, my feelings are somewhat mixed. And in this video, I explain that sentiment while also exploring the potential and pitfalls of this news.
