Ultimate Avengers: The Next Generation pt 4 of 6
Ultimate Avengers is taking it up a notch. A rogue Captain America has his hands full with Tony Stark’s mysterious older brother Gregory at the helm of a group of Avengers that have more in common morally with Norman Osborn’s Dark Reign lackeys than any other team of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Steve Rogers has discovered that he has a son who was raised in captivity by the US government until he slaughtered his way out and skinned off his own face to become… wait for it… THE RED SKULL.
It’s an all out super hero throw-down! Captain America and The Avengers face-off as the dreaded Red Skull plots universal mayhem! How will Fury’s death squad cope with the legend and his son? The world as we know it is on the line! Join superstars MARK MILLAR and CARLOS PACHECO for the next mind-blowing chapter!
This is shaping up to include all the elements of a classic cap story… intrigue, ass-kicking violence, the Red Skull and of course… a Cosmic Cube! I loved Ultimates Volumes 1 & 2 (though I found the animated adaptions to be sub-par). Volume 3 did nothing for me but this story from Mark Millar (Wanted, Kick-Ass) and artist extraordinaire Carlos Pacheco (Final Crisis, Avengers Forever) has brought the Ultimate imprint back on my buylist.

The animated adaption were just total disapointments.
Anything that had any emotional depth was cut (Hank and Jan immediately spring to mind).
I DID like the Avengers the
Next Generation, though – probably because it didn’t try to directly adapt a comic and came up with a stand alone story.

I like the last Ultimate Avengers run….unfortuately they had to kill Wanda.
I read the first 3 issues of this new Ultimate Avengers and I really hate it…first off I hate the Wasp….even if she is “Red” Wasp….don’t like the new Black Widow…..book just doesn’t click with me….BUT what I do like is Carol Danvers as an agent and wow…..since when did Clint Barton get so sexy! =)
