MARVEL
COVERS: Bryan Hitch
WRITER: Mark Millar
PENCILER: Bryan Hitch
INKS: Paul Neary

The all-action issue you've been waiting for! The Ultimates are pitted in pitched battle against their renegade member--The Mighty Thor! Can even the greatest super team on Earth take down a Norse thunder god?

The one major thing this did for me was show that last month’s weakarse issue was only a blimp. The crux of the issue handles the no-holds bared smackdown between Thor, The Ultimates and European Super-Team. For the most part, it’s pretty good, but the conclusion was a little weak. Millar does end the issue well though. The reader is kept off their guard in regards to whether Thor is sane or not, but Fury drops a pretty big hint!!!

Hitch really holds his corner here the art is undeniably more than solid. The battle is ferocious and we definitely get the feel of that from each an every page. We get some fantastic effects throughout the action as well. Lightening, fire, speed, sound blasts, explosions and for all of this we absolutely have to give some love to Larry Molinar and Laura Martin. Hell of a cover too…….but is it the whole picture!?!
