Ultimate X-Men #18begins its road to what can only be described as the book's climax, putting the pieces in place for what is sure to be an explosive finale down the line. It is truly the calm before the storm.

Ultimate X-Men #19 begins its road to what can only be described as the book's climax, putting the pieces in place for what is sure to be an explosive finale down the line. It is truly the calm before the storm.

Monstress #60 is a fitting end to the most recent arc of the nearly decade long series with plenty to chew on as it takes on its typical arc-ending sabbatical until 2026.

Ultimates #15 continues the quality that the book has become known for since the beginning. With plenty of character, lore, and fun action to keep readers craving more. The tide is beginning to shift, but the waters only get rougher from here.

Ultimates #16 is definitely another highlight issue in what is arguably the best book in the line. The story arrives at a perfect time given the current state of America today, as well as subtly push the story forward as we continue to head towards Ultimate Endgame. Only two months remain.

Ultimate Hawkeye is fun enough romp with an equally fun character. Worth the read if youre a fan of Charli, but theres nothing vital in these pages if you decide to skip it as well.

Ultimate Wolverine continues to tell its story in bloody fashion, and as long as you ignore the X-Men shaped elephant in the room, the book remains a fun ride.

Overall, MMPR/TMNT III starts out as more of the same from the first two outings, though noticeably not as strong as those first issues. Still a fun read for fans of both series, but not a great starting point for new readers.

Battleworld #1 isnt a comic that will demand your attention, but its a fun time nonetheless if youre willing to take the time to check it out.
