Ultimate Comics X #1; Written by Jeph Loeb; Art by Arthur Adams.
Rulk creator Jeph Loeb and fan favourite artist Art Adams team up to bring you Ultimate Comics X, a new bi-monthly (that means once every two months!) from Marvel Comics. Set in the Ultimate Universe not long after the world changing Ultimatum event, Ultimate X is a story of hope in a dark time following the deaths of some of the world's greatest superheroes. Mutants have been outlawed. Captain America is a fugitive. The Fantastic Four have gone their own ways. Who is left to protect the world?
Who—or what—is Ultimate X? The answers and even more secrets arrive in the all new ULTIMATE X ongoing bi-monthly series from the superstar dream team of Jeph Loeb and Art Adams. Wolverine is dead. Captain America is a fugitive. The Fantastic Four disbanded. Lives have been destroyed and nothing can ever be the same—is there any hope left? It all begins with a search for a brand new character whose identity will leave jaws on the floor and change the Ultimate Universe forever.
The Siege of Marvel Comics lays claim to it's first victim: An Avenger! In Siege #2, Osborn's attack on Asgard is thrown into chaos as alliances crumble and betrayals spin out of control. Written by Marvel Comics legend Brian Michael Bendis (Ultimate Spider-Man, Dark Avengers) and illustrated by Olivier Coipel (Avengers, Thor). The most brutal battle in Marvel history continues!
