Ultimates Enter Year Two Under Deniz Camp’s Leadership
Marvel’s “Ultimates” series, written by Deniz Camp with art by Juan Frigeri, is entering its second year, signaling a critical new chapter for the resistance network opposing the Maker’s dominance over Earth-6160. As the heroes regroup in issues #12 and #13, the urgency rises with the Maker’s return looming just six months away.
The Ultimates’ Strategy Against the Maker
Throughout the first year, the Ultimates—led by Iron Lad and Doom—leveraged the Maker’s confinement within his dome to disrupt the operations of his ruling Council. Now, the challenge escalates as they prepare to face him directly, with the creative team promising significant changes to the characters and the very nature of their mission.
New Characters and High Stakes in Upcoming Issues
Deniz Camp confirmed that the series will introduce notable new characters, including Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, and a fan-favorite yet to be revealed. As the narrative accelerates toward Ultimates 3.0, readers can expect the return of villains and radical groups that shaped the first year. Camp describes Year Two as a “rescue mission” filled with bold ideas and major shifts.
Release Dates and Access
Ultimates #12 is set for release on May 21, followed by Ultimates #13 on June 18. Fans can access these issues at local comic shops or digitally through the Marvel Unlimited app, continuing the evolving saga of the Ultimates’ resistance.
