Broken Frontier

The Ultimates have a traitor in their midst, the team has been systematically pulled apart, and now the traitor is readying to bring the hammer down in Ultimates 2 #9.  

“The master plan of the traitor deep within the heart of the Ultimates comes to startling fruition!” says editor Ralph Macchio.  “The Triskelion is under massive attack and this may be the defining moment for Nick Fury’s superhuman defense initiative! Don’t miss it!”

Even after the revelation of the traitor last issue, Tony “Iron Man” Stark and Natasha “Black Widow” Romanov are still hearing wedding bells.  Will they manage to sneak in a little matrimony before engaging in the fight of their lives?

As Ultimates 2 makes its way towards its conclusion, the title continues to garner praise from fans and critics alike. 

Hilary Goldstein of IGN.com says, “Had I the time, I'd individually praise every single page of this excellent book. Consistently one of the best Marvel books.”

David Wallace of SilverBulletComicBooks.com says, “The Ultimates 2 is truly the Marvel book which has everything, and is - in my opinion, of course - the strongest of Marvel’s Ultimate line: gripping action, thought-provoking writing, and a fantastic modern take on classic characters make this a must-read.”

If you’re looking for your action fix for the month, look no further than Ultimates 2 #9.  The world’s mightiest heroes have arrived at their darkest hour and you cannot afford to miss out as “Grand Theft America” continues.
