Ultimates 3 #2

But like Bryan said, the art here is pretty - and far better than the first issue. Being a bit of a fan of Madureira, and of art in general, I found quite a bit of enjoyment from that aspect of the book - but I dare not actually read it again. This definitely builds the case against "silent" comics. Read Full Review

Loeb needs to bring this team together and show us some heroism rather than emphasizing the worst traits of humanity in what are supposed to be Earths Mightiest Heroes. Read Full Review

Ultimates 3 would be an okay story arc in Exiles or What If... ("What if the Avengers were all on crystal meth?!?"), but as the bearer of the Ultimates torch it doesn't stack up.

Wow, Blob spoiled the Ultimatum here. Ha-ha... And Ultimates are morons. Why the hell did they fight Spider-Man and then left him lying in the snow... And suddenly word "suck" is "what's tearing apart the moral fabric of their country", as Cap says. Yeah, it really is. And then Hawkeye yells "c'mon you sons of bitches" and Cap's fine with that. Either he a hypocrite or the author didn't give a shit about this book.
