Ultimate Marvel Graphic Novels

The list author says:
	"#1-7 Absolutely classic! Bendis and Bagley spin a web of intrigue, emotion, action and The Green Goblin! The final issue is astounding!"

The list author says:
	"#8-13 A simple story that introduces Kingpin and The Enforcers. Very neatly and tightly done. Issue #13 is beautiful."

The list author says:
	"#14-21 Introducing Doctor Octopus and Kraven the Hunter! Linking with events from Vol. 1, this long story blends the traditional elements w/ modern connotations to perfection! Bagley rocks throughout!"

The list author says:
	"#22-26 Re-introducing The Green Goblin/Norman Osborn! This story helps ground GG as a massive threat to Spidey. SHIELD's involvement make this all the more interesting. Not amazing, but v good!"

The list author says:
	"#28-32 The death of Captain Stacy and Just-a-Guy! The closure of this volume ends weakly - the impact of the death is not truly felt. The pencils also crack a bit, but overall is very very solid!"

The list author says:
	"#33-39 VENOM!!! An incredibly solid and complicated story that links Peter's father with the creation of the legendary black suit. The science is flawless, the emotion is constant and the pages rock!"

The list author says:
	"#40-45 Introducing the Ultimate X-Men to Ultimate Spider-Man. This story does not have a lot of weight but the elements of MJ/Peter and the X-chicks work really well!"

The list author says:
	"#47-53 Kingpin returns w/ Black-Cat and Elektra! In two halves, Issue 50 introduces the gorgeous Black Cat to mess up Spidey's life. The concepts seem sound but the pencils are a little disjointed"

The list author says:
	"Spidey and The Ultimates! The Sandman chapter is the highlight! The rest is showy - taking plenty of time to do very little. The only interesting thing is Harry Osborn's reaction to everything."

The list author says:
	"#54-59 The Return of Doc Ock! This is less about Ock and more about Gwen - this is where the real action takes place. The movie idea is ok. The last issue is by far the best. Art is rushed in parts."

The list author says:
	"#60-65 CARNAGE! This starts off so slowly, with some random guest appearances, but hits the jackpot eventually. Opens up lots of doors but, sadly and pointlessly, closes Gwen's for good."

The list author says:
	"#66-71 Wolverine, the Human Torch and Doctor Strange! 1st story hillarious! So funny! 2nd grounds Spidey in his school life & spores the classic friendship & the 3rd ends with my fav issue ever!"

The list author says:
	"#1-6 Introducing the creation of the Ultimate FF and Mole Man! Not a bad start but not as out-the-blocks as it could have been. The art is "fantastic" and the groundworks are all there for the future."

The list author says:
	"#7-12 Victor Van Doom is discovered! Ellis is perfect for this, blending the necessary elements of sci-fi, team-relationships and teen comedy! Immonen is perfect! The tower attack - stunning!"

The list author says:
	"#1-6 Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Beast, Colossus, Iceman and Wolverine battle Magneto in this intricate and delicate opening outing for the Ultimate X-Men. Lots of set-pieces & appearances! Typically Millar"

The list author says:
	"#7-12 A bit of a mixed acr. The art changes and the scenes are often unclear. The resulting/closing fight scene is well done but other than that the concept is a little weak."

The list author says:
	"#13-20 The X-Men battle against Charles Xavier's own son! The art jumps a bit, but the plot is strong and well worth the inconsistancy. The extra issues with Gambit are pointless & offer very little."

The list author says:
	"#21-25 The Hellfire Club is hardly as original and charasmatic as the previous incarnation and this acts more of a lead into The Pheonix making an appearance."

The list author says:
	"Pencilled by my fav Chris Bachalo (who does not always do action scenes justice) this arc sees the X-Men vs. The Ultimates. Great battles and Millar at his best."

The list author says:
	"#26-33-Magneto is back! Nuff said!"

The list author says:
	"#34-39 Blockbuster features too many guest appearances from Spidey & Daredevil to name a few to really gel as a complete story. A few set pieces help to save it."

The list author says:
	"#40-45 Introducing Emma Frost and Angel, among others. It starts off slowly but works brilliantly. The second issue is incredibly moving. The death is unexpected and a little strange though."

The list author says:
	"46-49 BKV's first issues introduce Sinister, but more importantly and interestingly Apocalypse! The interaction of the new team members is the other thing that drives this story."

The list author says:
	"#1-6 Brilliant! Millar and Hitch are absolutely brilliant! From the neurotic Bruce Banner to the jealous Hank Pym, this is more about character than The Avengers ever was! Superb!"

The list author says:
	"#7-13 just when it couldn't get any better... Iron Man and Thor steal the show towards the end but the set pieces in the opening two issues are phenomenal! Buy this now!"
