Ultimates 3 – Who Killed The Scarlet Witch? (Softcover)

Ultimates 3 – Who Killed The Scarlet Witch? (Hardcover)

Ultimates 3 is a five issue limited series monthly comic-book published by Marvel Comics in 2009. The story is plotted by writer Jeph Loeb (Daredevil – Yellow, Hulk – Gray) and illustrated by the extraordinarily talented artist Joe Madureira (Astonishing X-Men, Uncanny X-Men). When first released, it was named "Sex, Lies, and DVD" but that sounded too corny even for a graphic novel and so it was later changed into "Who Killed The Scarlet Witch?" to be more appropriate. Some critics loved it and some criticized it for not having any serious depth of story from an Eisner winner nominee.

There is a trip to Savage Land, where we meet Ka-Zar and Shanna along with a few other recurring characters from Ultimate Marvel Universe. Some grim foreshadowing of the upcoming "Ultimatum" event was there considering the entire setup for this story seems a lot darker than usual Ultimate Universe books in general. The writing have some serious downsides that people hated but it can still be overlooked in exchange for some fantabulous artwork from the one and only artist Joe Mad. Joe's amazing art style took The Ultimates to a higher level and gave us a whole new point of view to look at it!

Ultimate Wolverine Vs. Hulk | Comics

Wolverine is sent to confront Hulk by Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. who wants Hulk off-grid after his rampage caused worldwide destruction like a building-crush in Paris, massive cattle massacre in Ireland and report of an earthquake in India while Bruce Banner was constantly changing into Hulk and travelling various locations.

Before he goes looking for Banner, Logan picks up Bruce’s scent from his cousin Dr. Jennifer Walters. After an awful lot of tracking Logan finally encounters Bruce in a harem like temple in a little village of Tibet surrounding by many women and after a triggering conversation, they both engage in a fierce battle. But as they both gets into a bloody rage, the Hulk manages to tear Wolverine in half and threw his legs four miles away.

When Banner went nuts after his wife Betty Ross broke up with him for Freddy Prinze Jr, Hulk made a mess of New York and The Ultimates tried to stop him. He was nuked but survived somehow by turning into Hulk. When he turned into Bruce again, he tried to hide himself from public but trouble finds him always on the wrong side of his temper which is followed by the series of global incidents.

Meanwhile, Betty Ross tries to convince Tony Stark and Steve Rogers to stop Logan from killing Bruce, but her attempts were quite unsuccessful. Aside from that, when Hulk tore up Wolverine into two, he was asking him about which leg he should eat first and suddenly out of nowhere, Betty Ross drops out of a S.H.I.E.L.D. stealth hyperjet as Plan B.

With the writer/artist team of Damon Lindelof and Leinil Francis Yu (New Avengers, Secret Invasion), the long delayed six issue miniseries of "Ultimate Wolverine Vs. Hulk" was started publishing by Marvel Comics in 2005 and finished on 2009. As the Hulk Vs. Wolverine battles are always one of comic-books' most epic fights, this one is no different either. Reference of this fight was later mentioned on the pages of Ultimate X-Men, Ultimates 3 and Ultimatum.

However, aside from the superhero brawl, there is a big and a bit of confusing plot in the background that doesn’t serve the story very well. This entire story took place in an alternate reality of Marvel Comics, Earth 1610, which is also known as the Ultimate Universe.

Actually Professor Xavier was planning to reform his old friend under his own care. This news is mistakenly leaked out by X-Men’s Beast to his virtual girlfriend over internet. While chatting with his unknown virtual girlfriend, he disclosed this piece of information, which caused the Brotherhood of Mutants to capture him as they were the ones posing as his cyber girlfriend to dig out their spiritual leader, Magneto.

Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. is approached by US government, when Magneto starts re-appearing. He blew up eight-hundred people by destroying Brooklyn Bridge in a sudden terrorist attack with a reformed Brotherhood of Mutants at his side. So, along with The Ultimates, Fury successfully tracks down X-Men’s whereabouts but found it empty.

This however led Fury to believe that the X-Men have finally joined the very cause of Brotherhood of Mutants to fight against humankind. Meanwhile, Magneto learns of a plan by Xavier, who intends to track him down. But this plan backfired when The Ultimates and X-Men members encounter each other for quest of self-styled mutant master of magnetism. It's a battle of might and pride to prove who among them are the best.
