Ultimates as a universe should be approached with caution, certainly, but it is with a straight if slightly bemused face I can tell you Millar handles it all... pretty well. o_0 The characters are pretty brash updates, but there's some very nice moments, and Bryan Hitch's art is excellent. It's worth trying out the first Ultimates book to see if you like it - but if you go in expecting movie or 616 characterisation, you'll probably be disappointed. Warning, there's a graphic and lengthy scene of domestic violence in there, too.

Seriously, War Machine and Warbird! Meant to be.

Liv Tyler. If she can't be Betty Ross she would make an excellent Spider-Woman. (I wonder who owns her rights?) And then she and Carol can be besties.

Ultimates was hand on heart some of Hitch's best work. His Steve is gorgeous, and cries perfect emo tears, and his Tony is a ball of cheery insolence. The domestic violence scene is graphic, but I would say that narratively, that plot is handled pretty well by Millar.

She-Hulk would be great! Although I would like it if their first venture into superheroines was a character not quite so closely bound with a male hero - which is why Black Widow would be perfect, I think. (I know, Carol also has the Captain Marvel connection, but I think her story would easily work without him, especially as he hasn't appeared in movieverse, and she's less, um, thematically bound with him.) Oh, I also wouldn't mind Carol as she is in Ultimates - she's a Badass Normal there.

Yeah, Spider-Woman's origin isn't really connected to Spider-Man, but they might have sold the rights as a bundle?
