: Oh, Mitchel, forgot to mention this-
: Ultimate Wonder Man debuted this month in
: "Ultimates" 24. And, yes, it IS
: Simon Williams!
:
: Didn't feel the need to start a new thread
: with this news because it's just a one page
: scene where he emerges from some tube he was
: being "treated" in to fight Iron
: Man. Iron Man hauls butt before the fight
: can really get started.
:
: Don't know if you'll like his orgin, it's
: different yet similar. Simon Williams was a
: world champion bodybuilder who was accused
: of "juicing" thus stripped of all
: his titles and banned from ever competing
: again. Nick Fury comes to him and offers him
: a job with SHIELD to join the West Coast
: Ultimates Initiative. He's given a
: "hulk serium" to become Wonder
: Man. Hopefully, we'll see more of him to
: come.
:
: Now, you may be asking, "Is he a good
: guy or a bad guy?" As the story goes,
: the West Coast team is being
: "used" by the rogue governor of
: California because he wants to start a war
: between the East and the West. The whole
: team is being duped by this man so I'm
: guesing he's good, just confused.
:
: The Ultimate U. is very different from the
: 616 U. The U.S. just went through a civil
: war, Cap is now the President and the
: country is very unstable at the moment.
: "The Ultimates" is one of my
: favorite books out there right now because
: it IS so different.
