Welcome to Ultimate! Where we dive deep into Earth 1610, the Ultimate Marvel Universe. Ultimate Marvel is a piece of comic-book history with a bad rep, Ultimate! is here to see if that rep is justified.
Join Eddie and Henry as we take on 15 years of comic book history and explore what makes these comics unique, from the good to the bad, to the dear god why!
