Also I love how Norman is at first not taken seriously by shield in comparison to the other big baddies like magneto or hulk but by the end you see how Norman is a mastermind- with his political and moneyed connections he plays a different game than other super villains
Ben: "I will say I love the fact that Peter can handle these guys one-on-one...There is _absolutely_ no way he can do it if they team up." POPulation: *Jim-face*
Sandman is one of my favorite villains in the Marvel Comics. I love that in Ends of the Earth, he is in the desert of Egypt and is able to absorb the sand to become a giant mass monster!
About time. I needed my Ultimate Spider-Man fix. Also, I prefer the MCU term “Enhanced Individual” for super-powered humans. And my favorite Sinister Six is the one from Spider-Man PS4. They almost completely destroy New York with both a bioweapon and thousands of escaped prisoners. Arguably, an Avenger-level threat and Spider-Man was able to handle them.
I do love that team, I personally would have preferred either Sandman, Kraven or Mysterio over Mister Negative. The Spectacular Spiderman Sinister Six teams are my favorite versions! I loved Montana as Shocker over any version I've seen of Schultz haha Love the Sandman, Rhino BFF chemistry in that series especially prior to being super enhanced villains
So wait, you wanted an Ultimate Six (Five) style conclusion to the MCU Spidey stories which involved Peter trying to deal with his villains alone and then friends showing up at the final hour to help mop the floor with the bad guys? Huh, sounds good. Might watch.
I have been internally screaming for a new ultimate Spiderman back issues ever since I finished all 160 issues plus fallout. Like, for months man, months! And here it is! Thanks guys!
A minor nitpick I've always had is that this story, timeline wise, makes more sense taking place before Volume 8, including the fact that the flashback issue came out before all the volume 8 issues. I've always just put Ultimate Six before Volume 8 in my collection, it just makes more sense that way
Now that I think about, they had a sixth villain, Rhino. Bendis didn't even have to retcon him in, cause iron man captured in one of the ultimate spiderman issues and presumably takes him to Triskelion. Guess they just really wanted Flint for this. I also love this story just cause it just really highlights how wack the ults are in comparison to ultimate petey, this international "superhero" team has an entire prison dedicated to ALL of some rando NY high school kid's villains.
@@ultimate_lance You're right, but I mean it's as simple as just having him pop up in triskelion and some guard remarking "this guy again? That spider kid doesn't sleep," or something along those lines. It just comes down to the fact that either Bendis forgot or didn't want him in sinister six.
@@TheSuperNaruto96 I mean if we had to use a previously established villian I would've done venom or shocker. Venom could've broken them free or instead of kraven being a joke they bring in the shocker
@@ultimate_lance I mean you could, but Kraven and Shocker were both already a joke by that point, and feel like that version of Venom really didn't seem to care much about Peter, could definitely not work with a team and I personally like him better as a solo villain who shows up every now and again to just shake up Peter's life.
I have a huuuuuge problem with the whole "modding your genetics is a crime" thing because you know who did that in the Ultimate universe? Cap Hawkeye Black Widow Hank Pym Nick Fury And what about the people who's genes were modded by accident like Daredevil or Spider-Man? where do they fit in?
@@Scandal262 Which also dosen't make that much sense. Because Daredevil isn't working for the government or even interacts with them in the ultimate universe. The closest we get to that is in Ultimate X Men, when he threatens Shield Agents and tells them to fuck off from Hell's Kitchen.
I think like that said, if it was an accident or you are a sheild/government agent doing it it's fine. Also alot of the heroes had already had that happen before they made it a crime. Like in early Ultimate Spider-man it wasn't a crime when Norman had done it yet.
@@ChristopherZubin that would make sense. And I found that on Urban Dictionary. Makes sense in the context. Probably the word Fakakta a word used to describe something that is not working well or is really crap. Thanks Chris!
There are actual cases of blind people being able to "sonar" ..at least according to natGeo and a few other docs I,ve seen...I'm pretty sure Stan Lee was a presenter on one of them
What’s even better about the Ultimates capturing Kraven is that only Cap was supposed to go. Everyone else just went cuz they wanted to explore the city lmao
I really dislike this story. The ultimates got more focus than Spiderman and he shows up at like halfway through. Plus the art is awful in this book. I think this should have been a stand alone book instead of being part of the volume collection
Yeah I didn't like the art either but I was a bit more forgiving about the story. I figured with a bit more focus it could have ended up as a nice little heist yarn. The pieces were all there.
The art is pretty awful throughout a lot of it, but I disagree on the story. They're still defined as Spider-man villains and the initial focus for them is finding him, but their larger goals aren't centered only on him, which I find refreshing. Also, by having Osborn be the leader (who in this universe had close ties to Fury), plus have most of 1610 Spidey's rogues be genetic mutations, having Fury's involvement be a major part of the story makes total sense, as does having the Ultimates appear, since they're so connected to S.H.I.E.L.D. If Bendis wrote Osborn to have a vendetta against Fury, it's natural that he'd want to screw with him more than anyone else, especially at a point where he has other super powered villains to help.
I'm curious to see how the Sinister Six will feature in the MCU, we have Molina and Foxx confirmed to return as Doc Oc and Electro, would love to see Haden Church return as Sandman and bring back Vulture and Scorpion and either have Mysterio return or Shocker
How Thor vs Electro should have gone in this: Electro hits Thor with electricity, no damage to him. Thor hits Electro with a massive bolt of lightning, the smoke clears and there's no damage to Electro leading to a brief moment of tension, how's Thor going to stop this guy? Thor then just walks over and just punches him in the face, immediately unconscious. That's how I'd like to see that go down in a film, just a 5 second Indiana Jones style fight.
Lol nvm just checked the book i have and its Bendis’ “black heart issue” issue must be used for miles morales to meet spider man in the main universe meeting BIG CEO spider man

The Road to 300 continues. I have no idea what book it'll be but I can't wait to find out
Maybe it'll be 300 lol
I want it to be 300
@@hadesshivabuddhachrist8573 I feel like it'll be something REALLY big, but not 300 for the reason they said in this episode.
Sal's ability to describe certain things is great. His description of Mud Man is the best example since I recall him saying "rat king of nonsense".

9:33 Could've gone without that Sandman/Hydro-Man description, but it's part of my life now, and I got a solid laugh out of it.
When sal mentioned "New frontier" that i how i knew he saw my tweet lol.

We're almost at 300 episodes. I can't wait to know what that episode is on but more Ultimate Spider-Man is always welcome.

Ah ultimate six vol.9 a interesting story about ultimate sinister six having spider-man forced to go against the avengers
@Nitro Vision indeed it was really weird in fact i think the artwork in this story is what killed it for me it wasn't a bad story it was okay at best

Hmmm, I don’t think I read this one...
58:01 well tbf Tony was probably so drunk he thought he was playing Doom with Hacks
I’m convinced Sal is a wizard. The week this episode came out, Sony & Disney finally renegotiated on Spider-Man.
Ya know, Sal kinda got his wish about a MCU Sinister Six/Spider-Man movie...
I was late to reading ultimate Spider-Man and never knew this was a thing. So this fills in a few holes.
*Back issues comes out
Today is blessed!
Another great show fellas. Personally love when you guys cover ultimate spiderman
The Kraven thing is like what happened in one of the Spider-Man cartoons, where he changed his genetic code to fight Spider-Man
This episode somehow willed Spider-Man back into the MCU. Did Sal use a Cosmic Cube or something?
Oh boy, the Ultimate Sinister Six! I can't wait to read this boo-why is Mark Bagley not drawing this?
Ultimate Six was another series that was happening at the same time as the main book. Bagley's good but not that good
@@TheRiverintheRoad I still prefer his art to what we got in this book. Specifically how Peter is drawn in this book feels wrong to me.
@@priceyyeti4058 yeah it's dirt, they should have had someone at least similar to Bagley's style come in and do it. Good story though

It’s crazy that if my math is right that you have been doing this for six years it feels like you just started not long ago

I think he used to teach english at a middle school or something. I think he said that in a old back issues. Dont quote me.
Keep. Peter. Safe.
Great video can’t wait for #300!!!
early morning back issues, I'm down
I feel like Sandman is just as unappreciated as Clayface. They both have the ability to be OP as f**k.
Yeah, that's one thing about Spider-Man 3, Raimi made Sandman as powerful and dangerous as he should be
If you remove Spider-Man and The Ultimates, this could have actually worked for Sony’s Sinister Six Movie. I hate saying that, but it’s true.
"Why would I collect them" LMFAO
The Sandman "sand origin" bit is a worthy candidate for a Tangents clip
