I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Ultimate Vision #4 - Marvel
First of all it's been about 3 months since the last issue of this book came out. I know that when dealing with creative talent . . . people have problems. But just like any other job . . this is the job you're being paid to do. And I'm sure there are other story-lines, in other Ultimate books, that hinge on the results and after-affects of this storyline. That being the case, this one book, could put the whole line behind schedule. But, to that point, I don't really see any other reference in any Ultimate book, to this story-line. So . . . . maybe not. But I would think that it would at least be connected to the Fantastic Four. Or maybe Iron Man. Oh yeah! That's right! We don't have an Ultimate Iron Man any more. Another sore subject that would be entirely to lengthy for this blog. Anyways, there were 2 months between issue #2 & #3. So at this pace we should see #5 about . . . when . . . December? Maybe January? Maybe this is a little cynical of me. But I just hate to see this trend in a comic book title, or story. And I'm really not trying to take it out on the creative guys. I mean . . . I love Mike Carey's stories. And I think Brandon Peterson is a major talent. But . . . . somebody's at fault. So you decide who you want to blame. Anyways, on to the story. Vision is still chasing after the Gah Lak Tus module. In her fight with it, she sealed off the delivery ducts for it's toxins and gasses. So it's landed smack in the middle of an Air Force base. It knows that it will be attacked, and in doing so will rupture it's tanks, thereby delivering the toxins that will change the humans. Vision ends up turning Tarleton. She sorts out the chatter in his brain and attacks him with sanity. He still hears Gah Lak Tus, but he's not controlled by it. But now they have to fight all these humans that have been turned in to monstrosities. And she/he is still trying to protect Dima. The artificial life form she took from the AIM base. But it looks as if she's going to be overwhelmed by the human/alien monsters. All the while, Gah Lak Tus is starting to burrow in to the earth, and tap in to the power grids, to begin it's assimilation. But not to worry. The cavalry is on it's way. It's . . . . the Falcon? I don't understand. But we'll have to wait until next issue to see how they wrap this up. Hopefully I'll post the blog before the new year.
