Ultimate Enemy

Brian Michael Bendis recently appeared on MTV's Splash Page with another announcement that had nothing to do with the Powers TV show or the ending to the current Dark Reign storyline. This time the attention was turned on the Ultimate Universe that recently experienced a mass Super-Hero death event called Ultimatum. And in this story, a huge list of Heroes and villians got offed with hopefully no take-backs, or last minute saves. In the wake of Ultimate the Ultimate universe was reduced to two main monthly titles, Ultimate Spider-Man and Ultimate Avengers, and a mini-series - Ultimate Iron Man: Armor Wars. Following this will be Ultimate Enemy, a three mini-series storyline coming January 2010 and staring what's left of the ultimate universe. The format will be like the Ultimate Galactus Story, in the form of three minies - Ultimate Enemy, Ultimate Mystery and finally Ultimate Doom. Bendis isn't saying if the last title is any kind of reveal as to the nature of this "enemy" but he did say this: "A new enemy brings forth a big mystery, and certain pinpoints of the Marvel universe are attacked by some grandiose villainy. . .the whole cast of Spider-Man, what's left of the Fantastic Four, Nick Fury and all kinds of other characters. It's a really big, whopping mystery"
