My favorite of the ultimate universe titles, its also one of the more self contained so you can just start it at issue 1
It was renewed for another year so thats means it will last until issue 36 and that the ultimate universe will last after their first event which is great
Absolute Batman is good nerds, in this one Bruce comes from a working class family, also his mom is alive. so read it nerds i recommend it
USM is probably the most popular of the new ultimate universe titles and for a good reason, its really good, in this universe peter becomes spider-man in his adulthood already married to MJ and being a dad to 2 kids

It was really good Deniz Camp is cooking here just like in Ultimates (2024)
this is a real comic published by DC today
Context: So Doom killed Hydra's leadership and replace them with doombots to control them, the Avengers discovered this and told everyone, but this was a plot by Doom to put them in a bad spot and him as the hero, all of this during Doom's takeover of the world
Spoilers abound!
I'm really loving the Absolute stuff so far, and of what I've read, Superman is the best. Kal-El gets a whole childhood with his working class family on Krypton, and the depiction of environmental devastation is very tightly wound with the explicit class politics of the series.
Absolute comics start from the basic premise of heroes reimagined without class advantages, and they take dramatic swings with the characters that have been paying off consistently.
Looking forward to reading Flash and Martian Manhunter next.
It was a fun first arc, i think all 3 absolutes comics have already finished their first arc, i liked all 3 of them but my favorite is still wonder woman
Also Absolute Flash 1 was a good first issue but i will post about it tomorrow
Really good reimagining of superman where he is a champion of the oppressed again, i recomend it its a good run
