ULTIMATE NIGHTMARE PART 4
The Ultimates and the X-Men race toward the center of the strange transmissions that have devastated worldwide communications. But monstrous mutations of Soviet super-villains bar their path. Can they survive?

I'll also concede that in spite of having so many inkers, the look of the art remained quite uniform which tells me that while he might not be the fastest artist, Trevor Hairsine is providing tight pencils, and isn't cutting corners to meet the monthly deadlines.
