How Ultimate Invasion Set Up Ultimate Spider-Man Incursion (Spoilers)

How Ultimate Invasion by Jonathan Hickman & Bryan Hitch set up Ultimate Spider-Man Incursion by Deniz Camp, Cody Ziglar & Jonas Scharf

Marvel Comics has released a mini-press release for Ultimate Spider-Man: Incursion #1, saying, "Miles Morales Embarks On His Ultimate Destiny In Ultimate Spider-Man: Incursion #1! Miles Morales takes up the Maker's standing offer to enter the Ultimate Universe in Ultimate Spider-Man: Incursion #1 by Deniz Camp, Cody Ziglar and Jonas Scharf. But will the key to the Maker lead to a universal Collison? Find out when the issue hits stands on June 4!"

Bleeding Cool previously scooped the word that Marvel Comics was to publish Ultimate Spider-Man Incursion #1 in June. After we noted last year that in the Timeslide comic, they teased Ultimate Incursion, and in Jonathan Hickman lore, an incursion occurs when one universe smashes into a parallel universe, leaving only one surviving. That Free Comic Book Day in May promised the first event of the new Ultimate Universe, and then we confirmed it all with the first visual out of ComicsPRO from Deniz Camp, Cody Zighlar and Jonas Scharf.

Subsequently, Marvel Comics then released an official press release saying "Paying off seeds planted by Ultimate Universe architect Jonathan Hickman at the very beginning of the new line, the long-awaited story finds original Ultimate Universe inhabitant Miles Morales swing over to the new one for an adventure that brings him into contact with the characters and events of the line's five current series. It's a crossover saga—Ultimate style! The series will also lay the groundwork for startling developments on the horizon, including the return of the Maker!"

We can note that this scene with a business card comes after this scene from the upcoming Free Comic Book Day comic…

Which reprised a scene from Ultimate Invasion #1 by Jonathan Hickman and Bryan Hitch…

In which The Maker left Miles Morales a way to travel to his new Ultimate Universe. As the solicit says, "before The Maker remade Earth-6160, he left Miles Morales the key to reach his new universe…and when Miles' baby sister, Billie, uses it to travel to the Ultimate Universe, it's up to Spider-Man to save her!" Did Billie Morales go fishing in that bin and find the card to enter the new Ultimate Universe? Looks like it…
