The mystery of the Ultimate enemy is about to reveal itself—and it’s a doozy that will rock the Ultimate Universe! Spider-Man and Spider-Woman infiltrate the bowels of Roxxon while Sue, Ben and Johnny find themselves fighting to the death against an out of control Captain Marvel. All this and the birth of a new Ultimate hero!! Brian Bendis (SIEGE) and Rafa Sandoval (AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE) bring you closer to revealing the mystery behind the Ultimate Enemy! Rated T $3.99
Bendis actually debuts a number of new Ultimate faces in this issue. Unfortunately, there's little indication any of them will impact the story greatly. There seems to be a general trend in the Ultimate line lately of bringing in new characters to directly replace the ones killed in Ultimatum. Hopefully Bendis has more ambitious plans for these new characters. Rafa Sandoval's work has the same strengths and weakness as usual. His page layouts and action scenes are dynamic, but his figures can be a little wonky by comparison. Ultimate Comics Mystery doesn't represent the pinnacle of Ultimate storytelling, but this issue does set the stage for bigger things in the near future. Read Full Review
