Ultimates #6 Preview: Teasing an Epic Battle

Unveiling the New Bruce Banner in the Ultimate Universe

The world of Bruce Banner in the Ultimate Universe is cloaked in mystery. This version of Banner is notorious for his amorality, conducting cruel experiments which have irradiated vast areas of his world. Unlike his Earth-616 counterpart, this Banner seems to wield control over his rage through Zen practices. Yet, the enigmatic Ultimate Hulk remains unseen in action. However, clues from The Ultimates #6 preview hint at an impending showdown involving Banner.

A Deceptively Calm Trap Awaits

Penned by Deniz Camp and brought to life by artist Juan Frigeri, The Ultimates #6 casts a spotlight on the titular team in high alert. They’ve uncovered a superhuman prison where inmates face imminent execution. The urgency compels the team to act swiftly, with less caution than usual. This opens the door for the Hulk to set an unexpectedly tranquil trap.

The intrigue surrounding this new Bruce Banner grows as The Ultimates #6 marks a significant milestone. The main cover and first five pages of this issue, illustrated by Juan Frigeri, offer a glimpse into this climactic event.

Rise of the Ultimate Team

What sets Ultimates #6 apart is the assembly of the entire team for a unified mission. Previous issues primarily focused on individual members or small groups, gradually expanding the team’s lineup. While new characters have emerged, they’ve seen limited development.

The prior issue unveiled this universe’s version of Hawkeye. Known only by their heritage, animosity towards Roxxon, and archery prowess, their character remains largely unexplored. Conversely, new introductions like the enigmatic America Chavez have vanished since their debut in Ultimates #2. The upcoming union of the full team against the Hulk and his followers promises to be riveting.

Mark your calendars for November 6, 2024. That’s when The Ultimates #6 lands on comic shop shelves everywhere, promising to unravel more mysteries of the Ultimate Universe.
