who else would fill in the Lethal Leader character in the Ultimate Universe except the one called Peter Wisdom? (altogether now: hwahahahahaha!) in Earth 616, he's a British chain-smoking mutant SOB, here he's just a British SOB. and he fancies himself the Ultimate Human, as he prepares to take the nanites from Tony "The Drunken Master" Stark and the SuperSoldier DNA from Bruce "Big Green Stupid" Banner. its payback time for 1776.
Ultimate Human #3 (Marvel)Warren Ellis/Cary Nord/Dave Stewart/Dave Sharpe
#5 - Who Dares ... Wins. Kinda.
what would you do if your own leader sold you out to a murderous alien race? well, the first instinct would be to shoot said bugger in the head. then you shoot the aliens. but Dan Dare has a plan, and it involves being captured (and tortured and killed ... but not without leading the Royal Marine Commandos to do some royal ass-kicking). forget about Flash Gordon, Thunderbirds, Buck Rogers or Star Trek. Dan is the friggin' Man!
Dan Dare #5 (Virgin)Garth Ennis/Gary Erskine/Parasuraman/Nilesh/Rakesh Mahadik
#4 - The Roof is On Fire
what to do with Ravager, a bastard daughter of the DC universe's greatest assassin? leave her alone in the Titans Tower and what happens? why, for starters it goes up in flames. this really makes Kid Devil's all-night parties much more preferable.
Teen Titans #57 (DC)Sean McKeever/Eddy Barrows/Ruy Jose/Jimmy Palmiotti/Rod Reis/Travis Lanham
#3 - Cat Fight
why is Erik Killmonger still alive? and why are they claiming he's never been defeated? didn't T'Challa PWN his ass many times over before today? and what makes them think this time will be any different? well, for starters, he now has two hostages ...
Black Panther #35 (Marvel)Reginald Hudlin/Cafu/Francis Portela/Val Staples/Cory Petit
#2 - Head Cases
well, that didn't take too long did it? the un-Maliced Omega Sentinel electroshocks the previously-comatose Xavier's mind, waking him up just in time to defend his now-human best friend/oldest enemy Magneto from the latter's former prized pupil Exodus. place your bets!
X-Men #209 (Marvel)Mike Carey/Scot Eaton/Billy Tan/John Dell/Frank D'Armata/Brian Reber/Cory Petit
#1 - They're Everywhere!
yes, that's an old Converse ad line, and it fits. the Skrull infestation is becoming much more evident. who else is a Skrull? i know of two - Bendis and Quesada!!! evil, evil geniuses.
Secret Invasion: Prologue (Marvel)Brian Michael Bendis/Leinil Francis Yu/Mark Morales/Laura Martin/Chris Eliopoulos
