Ultimate Origins
(Wed 06/20/2007 02:28pm)

The Movielord’s Coverage of Wizard World Philadelphia continues…


“Ultimate Origins” written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS and drawn by JACKSON GUICE, will soon be apart of the Marvel Ultimate Universe. Bendis spoke about the project and revealed that he and JOE QUESADA had come up with a few ideas about certain characters that would shape the Ultimate Universe. They conceived a precursor of stories revealing how Nick Fury, the Hulk, Captain America, and Wolverine are all tied together; long before we met any of them in the Ultimate Universe. Some of these stories will deal with the super-solider serum to start but, Bendis stated that these ideas were shelved with the hopes that the Ultimate Universe would take off and there might be a chance to get back to them once readers got to know and care about the characters in the Ultimate Universe. With many of the Ultimate books crossing the 100 issue mark, or coming close to it, the time to tell this story is just a few months away.

So the story of how all those characters are connected will soon be revealed.

JEPH LOEB will launch “Ultimate Origins” with a story of his that will create the demand for the “Ultimate Origins” tale to be told.

Covers for the Bendis and Guice books will be done by SIMONE BIANCHI.
