But they also know that many people refused to pick up MUU from the beginning, asserting (as I occasionally have) that the only Ultimate Marvel Universe is the one Stan and Jack created in the first place. :) Still and all, Ultimate Origin just leaves me cold. It's an example of why "closed-system" writing isn't as much fun... Like in the movies, where we have to have the villain of the movie be intriniscally tied into the heroes origin (Jack Napier in the 1989 Batman, Lloyd Sandman in Spider-Man III, Doom in Fantastic Four) trying to tie up all the loose ends makes the shared universe concept less fun... How many of the best Marvel concepts weren't retconned in until well AFTER the universe started? Yes.

Are they trying to force people to buy 616? They do know that some people don't like the current 616 and are buying MUU instead, right?

Considering mutants are a worldwide phenom in the UU, james has had to have gotten laid nearly every minute between then and at least the early 80's. You think science isn't Bendis' strong point?
