    So, I had Ralph Machio over for a BBQ this weekend and talked comics with him... mainly Ult. Spidey as it's my favorite book right now. Anyway, he leaked some things with some upcoming stuff, so I'll post this as a fun little poll ^_^

    And yes, I really do know the answer to this.

    You really should have added Black Cat who shows up in the recent issue saying "Get your hads off my boyfriend"

    You should have added a choice for people like me who don't read ANY "ultimate" titles.

    Hey, I don't read any Ultimate titles either, and I had no qualms about voting for option 4. :D 

    I actually wished they'd hooked up Ultimate Pete with Ultimate Gwen right from day one. Mary Jane has always annoyed me. And after the movies I just can't stand her.

    Especially as Ultimate Gwen is the COMPLETE anti-thesis to the normal Marvel U's "Mary-Sue"-like Gwen Stacy. She's a punker chick who kicks your arse if you look at her funny.

    Then again. Peter; no matter what version. Have allways liked more "grounded" women. Bit of a bore yes; but hey. That's Peter. So Ultimate Kitty Pryde is a good call.

    Also nice exchanging anouther cat based character with anouther. So instead of having a romance with Black Cat here's Shadow Cat. Wonder if it'll crash and burn as well?

    Yeah. In the lamest possible way.
    And Ultimate Omega Red had better fucking rock. I'm getting kind of sick of these one dimensional stories. I pick up Ult Spidey in TPB form because I'd end up losing the individual issues and they all seem to follow the same general theme.
    New villian shows up, gives Spiderman some trouble, Spiderman then royally shafts them in round two.
    I mean he totally pumped Carnage right off the bat. Yeah that's right. Fifteen year old Peter Parker knocked the shit right out of Carnage. I know this is the Ultimate Universe and all but it irks me how some of Spiderman's greatest foes are being totally neutered for no good reason. Venom went out like a big goddamn fairy as well. And Harry Obsorn showed up as the Hobgoblin and got slapped around with ease as well.
    Despite all that I keep reading the books.
