Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #23 - People who’ve worn the webbed mask have abandoned being Spider-Man before. The cover of this week’s Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #23 riffs on the classic John Romita image from Amazing Spider-Man #50, when Peter Parker quit. And I want to say that Ben Riley stopped web-swinging because of angst, too. But I could be wrong about that.

weber_dubois222013-04-24 07:16 pmBrian Michael Bendis has been the shepherd of the Ultimate Universe since the beginning, formulating the basis of the entire line with his run on Ultimate Spider-Man that began nearly 13 years ago. Not content to settle into one status quo for too long, Ultimate Peter Parker was killed off in early 2011 to make way for a replacement hero named Miles Morales, who has since continued the Ultimate tradition of keeping these stories full of surprises.

Back in February, Marvel teased "Spider-Man No More!" in May's Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #23, showing burgeoning Spidey Miles Morales dolefully walking away from his costume, in an homage to the cover of Amazing Spider-Man #50 by John Romita.

Spider-Man is up there as one of my top three comic book characters (Batman and Alana from Saga are the other two, and Alana edged out Daredevil only recently). Because I was introduced to him via his earlier adventures, I had always understood him to be a stand-in for kids like me, or kids like anybody that reads comics in general because Spider-Man was an outcast.
Peter came from a poor neighborhood. He was an orphan. He wasn’t into fashion or music, or movies or any other thing that marks a person as being cool. He liked science (nerd!) and amateur photography (artsy nerd!) and, well, not much else.

Just like Capt. America uses that shield as a crutch? and what’s with thor always using that hammer?
I’m not exactly sure what you’re talking about is my point… in fact one of the story beats I keep doing is that he forgets to use the venom blast and his cloak because it is still an unnatural thing for him.

Ahead of the June 2013 solicitations, Marvel let us exclsuively in on this gorgeous cover of Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #24 featuring the all-new Ultimate Cloak and Dagger. The issue is part two of "Spider-Man No More" and follows-up on Marquez's take on the classic image associated with that phrase. What role will the new Cloak and Dagger play in Miles Morales's story? We'll see in June.

While I’m usually eager to poke fun at Marvel Comics for their trite, mind numbing events, even I’m slightly impressed by this latest bit of news. According to Bleeding Cool (who’ve been on quite a rumor run over the past few days), Axel Alonso and crew plan to pit Marvel’s main 616 Universe against the Ultimate version. Imagine it… Classic Cap versus Slightly Racist Cap, Classic Hulk vs Gray Rapey Hulk, Classic Thor vs Druggy Hippie Thor… I could go on like this all day.
Not leaving much room for mystery, the news leak claims this massive event will be the end of the Ultimate Universe. While that would effectively wash away the horrors of Ultimatum and Ultimate Comics: Avengers (Vampire Captain America, ’nuff said), we’d be missing out on some great new stories from Miles Morales, who’s essentially the last good thing about the UU.
