Ultimate Wolverine Vs. Hulk

Going to storytime one of the first comics I ever read after being introduced to Sup Forums. I remember reading the first two issues and then the YEARS long delays (started 2005 - finished 2009). While I'm not going to say the story was worth a 4 year delay, I am going to say it deserves your attention.

This is one of the few stories that I consider a real standout in the Ultimate Universe. It manages to take a basic idea (Hulk fighting Wolverine) and then turns it on it's head throughout the entire series. Nothing ever plays out like it should. The story continuously progresses subverts expectations while also proving to be entertaining.

>Damon Lindelof
This can't be good

...

...

Bottom is a reaction face if there ever was one.

I really like Lindelof's dialog. Something about it clicks with me.

Can't be that bad,in one page it totally reminded me what kind of person Ultimate Nick Fury was.

>Clinton has an office in this building.
>Wanna meet him?
Only if he plays the sax.

...

...

...

Was this immunity to mind reading just Ultimate Wolverine's thing or did it extend to other versions?

...

...

>Offer up a piece of your mysterious past?
Fucking hell Fury.

...

>Bruce is a nice man. Try to make it quick.
=(

...

.....what?

I was sold after this issue.

Sometimes I feel like his dialogue deliberately riffs off Bendis-speak.
The scene where they interrogate Jen Walters and she keeps asking why everyone's repeating themselves in particular.

...

Time for a perspective shift to Bruce. Interesting thinking he was conscious for the last bit of this. Also, I think it's interesting that 616 Tony is an atheist, 1610 is definitely more questionable. He was the one that put the rosary beads in Banner's hand.

...

I love Lindelof's Hulk.

...

...

>Are you afraid she'll say you're impotent, David?
Oh snap

>Hulk no angry!
I believe it.

...

I'm enjoying thanks professor

...

Goddamn. I've always caught off guard how much more savage the Ultimate version of Hulk was. He's resorted to full on cannibalism WAY more than his 616 counterpart.

Lol this dialogue. Are there other great ultimate Hulk stories?

That painting doesn't really go well with that room.

He should have gone for something more minimalist.

I thought Warren Ellis wrote a really good Iron Man/Hulk story called Ultimate Human.

...

...

=O

I really enjoy this page.

Imma read this one again. Have fond memories of it.

>You thought I'd be younger.
HA! I like this guy.

...

...

This page makes me want to go back and read some more Hulk comics.

>Would you like a hot cocoa?
My man.

Also this is when the FOUR YEAR WAIT STARTS! He had to really solid issues

The title didn't resume until Lindelof had all of his issues fully scripted. It's for that reason that I don't want to attempt anything with an artist till the story is at least ironed out (changes can be made during the translation process). How writers can commit themselves to an ongoing with no clear end in sight (Walking Dead, Manhattan Projects) is beyond me. I don't know how they manage that level of open endlessness.

Probably one of the most necessary recap pages of all time.

...

>Ever see that movie "Sophie's Choice"?
>Yeah. Me Either.
Lindelof's WOlverine is hilarious

...

I probably would have picked the left too.

>Plucky.
I can see it.

...

...

This is an interesting page.

...

Wolverine's face in the bottom right is gold.

...

bump

You still there professor? Im seriously enjoying this storytime. I never read it first time round. Bump

did he died?

second man.

OP please come back

Rip.

...

Sorry about the delay. Internet shit out hardcore.

This page is the definition of "playing with fire".

No idea why that page got spoilered.

...

...

...

...

>Ultimate She Hulk
Definitely not what I was expecting.

...

I wonder who that is in her bed. DOesn't look like Tony and obviously not Freddie Prinze Jr.

I really, really like how this artist does the hulk.
Actually I like everything about this comic.

...

Muh dicc

...

Absolutely savage

Also thanks for doing this professor

Im very pleasantly surprised with how good this is

...

...

...

Probably one of the best pages that emphasizes the differences between the Ultimate and 616 counterparts for each character.

...

...

Fucking hell!

>if we can't kill him right the first time he gets a free pass

Really?

...

Yu's titties are always great
