Oh, My first ever "FIRST".. Sigh that's so lame of people doing this everywhere!

[eltopo]

looks interesting

[durkadurka]

Oooh, interesting. So far i like it.

[TheWay]

I have high hopes for this. I hope it meets my expectations. I am liking what I see here so far.

[Squashua]

Fisk and Fury fought in the war together in... 1943. 8)

Howlett sounds familiar.

Edit Ah, Wolverine.

Wolverine, Kingpin, and Nick Fury fought together in World War II and are all still active in the modern day.

Nice.

James Howlett AKA Wolverine.

So your statement should read "Wolvie, Fisk and Fury fought in the war to gether in... 1943. 8)"

I don't have a problem with those three being in a war together, in a lot of ways it makes sense.
But 60 years ago? Fisk and Fury aren't supposed to be in their 70's or 80's in the stories we read now are they? They sure as heck LOOK younger.

[Tizoc]

^Maybe Fury took a Super Soldier dose that give him eternal youth?

When a man and a woman love each other very much, they might consider having a baby. That baby could be a boy or girl. Usually, especially in olden times in America, the baby's last name is that of the father, because a child out of wedlock is a bastard and doesn't have a soul.
Anyway, come on guys. If you have to nitpick...i can't even bring myself to finish that sentence.

[KoozyK]

looks ok
i'll pick up the hc

[GohanWinner]

Been looking forward to this for a while, and it looks good from these previews. No interest in Ultimatum (LOOOEEBB) but as a fan of the Ultimate line, well, mostly Ultimate Spider-Man, I've been waiting for it since Bendis announced it.

Anyway, I'm willing to bet that that's our Fury, but that's almost certainly not Wilson Fisk. For one, it doesn't sound a thing like him.

Or maybe it's from a different time period, seeing as the story does span the Ultimate universe's backstory. Vietnam maybe?

Whether I'm right or wrong, it does look pretty cool, might just pick it up.

It say's 1943 on that page...so it's not nam.

[lordlad]

wow......that's some nice pencils..

[HartyPotter]

that is some pretty impressive art.

[Tom Daylight]

Could be a different Fisk and Fury, y'know. Their fathers, or uncles, perhaps.

I could see that.

[zolondek]

I figure it's Willie's daddy there

[UltimateXMF]

I think Fury and Wolverine are the same, Fisk is probably I dunno, his Dad or summit.

Looks cool.

So in the Ultimate universe there was no segregation of the armed forces in WWII?

Not only that, Hitler had 3 balls instead of just 1. Darn Chitauri tech!

[thechad209]

This looks great. With everything going on, I wouldn't be suprised if this had something to do with Secret Invasion. Or someone in the regular Marvel U experimenting. Looking forward to seeing how this plays out.

If it's him, sixty some-odd years later, he might sound completely different.

[artiepants]

this looks great, i've been so excited since it was announced.
(wish this was the same creative team for Ultimatum.)
I figure for me this is kind of the last hurrah for the Ultimate Universe before Loeb FUBARs it.

well, Wolverine is Canadian (that's still true in the Ult. 'verse, right?), and they kind of seem like they might be "up to something" so likely there's more to the story then what's revealed on those pages.
