Why DC’s Absolute Universe Beats Marvel’s Ultimate Universe 2.0

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

Marvel and DC Comics each created a new universe in which they built their iconic characters from the ground up. One was forged by the machinations of the Maker and the other was created through the power of Darkseid. Both have done well in terms of sales and fan response.

However, the Ultimate Universe is set to end in 2026. And DC’s Absolute Universe is poised to grow for years to come.

The time is right to take a step back and assess both universes as they’ve developed. In doing so, one thing became clear. Absolute DC is winning and Ultimate Marvel 2.0 has faltered.

Ultimate X-Men #2 Review: Ultimately Lacking

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

This video is my review of Ultimate X-Men #2. After this newly rebooted Ultimate Universe delivered so many amazing first issues, Ultimate X-Men really disappointed. It was one of the most underwhelming comics I’ve read in a long time, lacking anything that would make it an appealing X-Men comic, let alone an Ultimate comic on par with what others have done.

My review of the first issue earned quite a bit of flak. But I always intended to review the second issue. I don’t let one bad issue define a series. And while this second issue was an improvement over the first, it was still lacking.

Ultimate X-Men #1 Review: Ultimate Utter Failure

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

This video is my review of Ultimate X-Men #1. The recently rebooted Ultimate Universe has been off to a great start. Ever since Ultimate Invasion, this new Marvel universe has blossomed in all the right ways.

But Ultimate X-Men #1 effectively ends that winning streak. Because this issue was a completely unmitigated failure on every level. It was one of the worst comics I’ve read since the end of the former Ultimate universe. And its failure is worth highlighting.

Ultimate Black Panther #1 Review: Wakanda Goes To War!

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

This video is my full review of Ultimate Black Panther #1 by Bryan Hill and Stefano Casalli. This newly-rebooted Ultimate universe continues to evolve in major ways after the events of Ultimate Invasion. And now, Wakanda is set to become the front lines for who will control the future of this new Marvel universe.

King T’Challa finds himself in the midst of an emerging conflict. Khonshu and Ra are waging war on the rest of Africa. And T’Challa has no Avengers to aid him. It sets the stage for a war the likes of which we’ve never seen before as the chaos of this new Ultimate universe continues to evolve. Enjoy!

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!
