"DO YOU WANT IT BACK?"

After its new take on the Clone Saga storyline, Bendis's Ultimate Spider-Man grew more and more inconsistent. The final years of the book felt like it was pulled in many different directions, from Ultimatum supposedly being the end, then Hickman's new Ultimate Comics bringing Peter back, then him being killed off for real less than two years later, the book never seemed to get a proper throughline to resolve itself. Now, thirteen years later, Hickman's taking another stab at the concept of an Ultimate Universe, and his flagship book with a radically different Peter Parker has just begun. So, tune in as Alec and Brian wrap up their retrospective of 1610 Peter Parker, as well as diving into the first issue of the highly anticipated Ultimate Spider-Man by Jonathan Hickman!
