In this episode, Ryan and Justin take a look at Marvel's Ultimatum, the major crossover event that changed the Ultimate Universe forever...because it alienated readers and rendered the Ultimate Universe no longer commercially viable. Listen as the tanking of a formerly successful publishing line unfolds before your very ears! 

Plus: How to avoid drawing the tidal wave that destroys Manhattan; cannibalism and its applications towards mutant supremacy; various instances of massive head trauma; and the woefully inadequate defenses of medieval Latverian castles.

Discussed: Ultimatum #1-5 (2009).
