But there is something else that is different about them compared to other Marvel titles being published today. And that's the ads.

And that one will have to be destroyed – or maybe they could merge, ending the Ultimate Universe but keeping the best bits.

We had to make our way through the thick of it all to make our way to check in.  Then there was the long trek through the smog to make it to the hotel room. Needless to say there was no enjoyment to be had Thursday night.  Sick as a dog and oh, so miserable. We hoped[...]
