The first nemesis of the c🍃urrent generation of Ultimate X-Men returns in Ultimate X-Men #14, with the Shadow King coming back to menace the young team. For those not in the know, the current Ultimate X-Men are part of a new relaunch of the Ultimate Universe, though they exist somewhat in their own corner of the new timeline.
Rather than an adaptation of the classic X-Men of the core Marvel Universe, some of whom have𝔍 appeared elsewhere in the new Ultimate continuity, the Ultimate X-Men are a collection of young mutants led by Armor who have run afoul of a dire mutant cult.
Their first 🦋enemy, the Shadow King, is part of that group, using his powers of psychic shadow projection and telepathy to menace the freshly formed X-Men.
Here's the preview of interior pages by writer and artist Peach Momoko, script adaptor Zack Davisson, and letterer Travis Lanham, which pay homage to the iconic cover of Uncanny X-Men #251 with Wolverine strapped to the x-shaped cross, which was also adapted in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Deadpool and Wolverine:
"The Shadow King returns...more powerful than ever!" reads Marvel's𒁏 sparse solicitation text for Ultimate X-Men #14. "Will Armor be the first to fall?"
The new Ultimate Universe launched in early 2024 with new iterations of Ultimate Spider-Man, ♛Ultimate Black Panther, the Ultimates, and of course, Ultimate X-Men. Most recently, Ultimate Wolverine has brought in Ultimate versions𓆉 of some classic X-Men such as Gambit, Kitty Pryde, and more.
It's all building to a big confrontation with The Maker, the villainous mastermind who engineered the ♈history of the new Ultimate Universe, which will take place in just a few months.
Ultimate X-Men #14 goes on sale April 2. For more X-Men coverage, be sure to check out the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best X-Men comics of all time.
I've been Newsarama's resident Marvel Comics expert and general comic book historian sinc꧃e 2011. I've also been the on-site reporter at most major comic conventions such as Comic-Con International: San Diego, New York Comic Con, and C2E2. Outside of comic journalism, I am the artist of many weird pictures, and the guitarist of many heavy riffs. (They/Them)
