Fan favorite monkey boy Frank Cho has whipped up a variant cover for Marvel’s Ultimates #3 featuring the Scarlet Witch. Take the jump for the full image.
Or – “Is It A Coincidence That This Thing Came Out During May Sweeps?”
Well, this IS interesting. Many Spoilerites may NOT know that this issue marks an imaginary milestone for me… Ultimates 2 #12 was the first-ever review I did for Major Spoilers, waaaaay back in the heady days of October, 2006. Doesn’t seem that long ago, until you look at the hard numbers. That was Major Spoilers post #314. THIS is Major Spoilers post #1452. Captain America was alive. Spider-Man had a secret identity. And Iron Man wasn’t yet the red-and-gold Doctor Doom he is today. Heck, I wasn’t sure exactly what effect I was going for when I wrote that first piece, whether it was criticism, reviewing, whining about Bendis or just telling you all the good bits. Now that my mission statement is clarified, I have sort of smooshed together all of the above, with a healthy dose of snark and a smattering of comic book history, into the recaps we all know and barely tolerate. Now that the issue is here, there are two burning questions: First, IS he or ISN’T he? And second, will Matthew have the wherewithal to Photoshop together an EIGHT PAGE SPREAD?
Or “How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Drop A Book.”
First off, I suppose that I should introduce myself: Hey, I’m Matthew. You may remember me from such movies as “Bloody Mess On The Highway,” and “Calling All Lumberjacks.” I’m also known occasionally as The Lizard King, the twisted mind behind ‘The BMF List,’ now seemingly lost to the mists of time and internet.
