Hello comic readers and Spider-Man fans alike, Before starting my day of around town to do stuff I am definitely going to do my first full comic review of the year, and well why not start out with a hopeful and strong turn for one of Marvel comics most beloved characters... and still maybe a long way off of it but it could happen you never can honestly tell? Here's the cover of Ultimate Spider-Man #1,
being cared for by Spider-Man himself. This story is by writer Jonathan Hickman with illustrative art by Marco Checchetto. The original Ultimate Spider-Man comic with Peter Parker as Spider-Man started the winter/spring of two thousand and at that very same time the writer of the television series known as Babylon five was writer of the recently rebooted volume two of the continuation of Amazing Spider-Man since Marvel had declared bankruptcy in nineteen ninety six. His name was Joe Michael Straczynski his run at first started to focus on making Peter and Mary Jane's marriage get to it's strongest strength throughout his run on the title till he was ordered by his boss to make it magically vanish by a Spider-Man title known as One More Day... (If you're a regular viewer/reader of this very blog, YOU KNOW HOW I HAVE FELT ALBOUSTULELY OF THE END RESULT, FOR NOW I WILL LET YOU FIND OUT ON YOUR OWN!), The writer of the original Ultimate Spider-Man line was Brian Michael Bendis, who before writing this project was writer of POWERS a imprint of his own released by IMAGE comics. The original reasoning for the Ultimate Spider-Man which was then followed a couple of years later by Ultimate X-MEN was to create a special diversity of the main Marvel Universe which at this time was only thrity eight years old, if we go all the way back to nineteen sixty two, even though Stan Lee was completely conceived by early nineteen sixty he was ready to retire from the then Altas comics the name of the company since the mid nineteen fifties. Yet the owner of the company a cousin to his mother's side of the family had wanted Stan to come up with something that could rival the competition's Justice League title? What did Stan and artist Jack Kirby come up with as a team for that family cousin Martin Goodman to leverage against the bigger than life of superheroes on a very popular team? They came out with the group
known as the one seen here. The Fantastic Four and that was in late nineteen sixty one, so is it possible that the Marvel comics universe is in actuality more likely fourty years old back in the year two thousand? Anyhoo the Spider-Man character first appeared in a title known as Amazing Fantasy #15, in March of nineteen sixty two... Just so that you can be aware the older Marvel comics universe is listed as Earth 616 and for reference of the original ultimate universe is listed as Earth 1610. The original Ultimate universe stories ended in twenty eleven. And had only one of their characters be pulled into the main Earth 616 timeline... Yes it's that universe's Spider-Man known as Miles Morales
seen here. ( I can say this Miles since his character's beginning still hasn't been able to escape Peter Parker's shadow of who is better as the web Spiner at least comic wise), Miles Morales should have his own hero identity is all I want to say here. Now with all of the brief summarized histories of both sets of takes on the Marvel comics Universes, let us jump right into this very interesting take on a Spider-Man defined universe that's unique in it's own way, shall we! One thing that is very engaging about this very issue is that in it for the first in a very long time of storywise Peter Parker is actually being shown here to be taking his life of existence very responsibly of being older than he is in the Amazing Spider-Man continually by being a father to two children named May and Richard Parker. (Richard Parker is Peter's father's name, he and his wife Mary were framed by Captain America's foe the Red Skull as spies and died when Peter was very young), so it's definitely a great recall to including the whole Parker legacy of family. There is also one character in this very story that in every other iteration of the Spider-Man mythology is never in the stories unless you want to remember the one time, that even after Harry Osborn's death he had succeeded in being absolutely capable of beating out his father Norman Osborn in torturing Peter Parker with the creation of his parents being clones just before the start of the nineties storyline of the clone saga.... yet this very person has been Peter's driving force of his motto of "With Great Power, there must come Great Responsibility!" Here he works for the daily bugle with Jonah Jameson, Robbie Robertson, and Wilson Fisk the Kingpin crime is a shrewd business tycoon who owns the Bugle. There's also his foe the Green Goblin. (Yet we have no idea of who he is as of right now, only that possibility his suit looks like it's Stark industry related...) Yet even though he is uncertain about something in his life as well at the current time, he has a very strong relationship with Mary Jane Watson who is his wife. I can honestly say that this version of Peter is very informative of sharing his thoughts of what he is thinking about with her and she is also a great commincater at the same time as being a hopeful listener of his concerns related to every day life. They truly do care about each other like the friends they are, suppose to do. Oh yes I did forget to mention as of yet he isn't even Spider-Man at all, only a thrity something regular human dealing with life as best that he knows how to! To me even though I don't know this writer named Hickman, well enough to understand his fundamental goals with this, with his take on Peter's on set so far.... I do know that most fans of Spider-Man as a whole want the man known as Peter Parker to of course have his share of trials of Problems as a normal human will go through weather he is has a super drawn out battle with any bad person on the street, to a specific super villain that he knows how to deal with. So how does Peter Parker deal with his fears of depression when he is in a life and death struggle of lifting his own inner strength is he consistently jokes with his foe whom he is threatened by! It also seems as if in this spin of the Ultimate universe there are very few heroes out there trying to figure out who they are as well! So our boy Peter, is not the only human being known to be fighting a grand inner influence of faith in finding out if he is any kind of hero as well? What or Who made all of this very universe so much in need of heroes anyway? All I can honestly say is whom ever it is, is called the Maker. I know even though I know that answer of who the Maker is l have to get the prequel to this version of the Ultimate Universe which was released last year as a title known as Ultimate Invasion a four part plus a added one shot series. I happen to have three out of the five in single issue format, they too are scribed by Hickman as well. There is ONE MORE VERY IMPORTANT THING, that I also want to talk about before giving my complete grade of this very Awesome and well constructive look at a set of fans appreciation of Spider-Man as a enduring as Mister Peter Parker truly is... Marvel as a company has had their top selling character be for since 2007, that is seventeen years way to long to keep him as a one note bum without any chance to be a growing character be stuck as maybe this is only me I don't happen to say it as anything but Peter Parker is actually been a as I mentioned a bum, but also a great villain because he has been unrelatable since One More Day ended. Yes you heard that right I am certain a bunch of Spider-Man fans believe a hero can't be worth being a hopeful inspirational source of being faithful to being fair and honest for everyone. I mean with how most comics have been written for the last few years how can any hero at Marvel or Decetevice Comics be worth exploring for richness of knowledge of heroism... when the stories are written so condensed by the writer of any book. Now I have to also remember super heroes right now of both mainstream publishers are lost in editorial mistakes more than ever! The editors definitely need to know that writing towards one set of readers who don't care for your product will get their sells only so far for so long, in the long term. I am honestly hoping that Marvel won't make this Ultimate Spider-Man eventually just like they have the one that is sixty two years old and be unwanted at all. My grade for the family version of Peter Parker seen here is really fascinating full of each character from Peter and Mary Jane and their two children May and Richard are ready to grow into the best of both worlds of who want to be full of gusto in their own ongoing and on growing creative universe. I can say this about reading this very issue has me thinking about getting the forementioned Ultimate Spider-Man onimibus from Amazon at some point. My grade is A + for this one and have high expectations that Peter and Mary Jane's marriage will eventually return in great detail in the one that is super brilliantly broken right now!
