Had a quick 10-minute dash through another local comic shop’s bargain-bins Friday night. Also visited one of two local Half-Price Books locations. Snagged a fair number of additional Ultraverse issues.
I’ve decided to start a separate blog to focus on my Ultraverse project. First will be this hunt to track down all the story issues (if I find some cheap variants and such along the way, cool…but I’m more interested in simply having a copy of any given issue in order to read it).
My plan at present is shaping up to be that I locate the full run, and then do a read-through, June books 1993 through to Future Shock from 1997.
I’ve read a good number of these before, but most I have not, and given the nature of the Ultraverse line, I think it’ll be interesting to read all the books, and to do so in order of release (at least by month) to roughly simulate what the original experience of doing so may have been.
My scope is to share the enjoyment of the story and perhaps quasi-review the books. I’m no Ultraverse expert, and will leave the fun stuff like interviews and such to other parties.
I will most likely crosspost here for awhile at least, until or unless the Ultraverse Revisited blog gets some legs of its own.

Comic Reviews by Walt 
Hi, I started collecting comics the same time Ultraverse came out back in 1991. I was hooked right away on the Ultraverse comics and bought and read every comic made until bought out by Marvel. I love everything about the Ultraverse and was sad to see it all come to an end. I have a feeling in the future these will rise from the ashes and Marvel will ressurect it. My favorites were Prime, Firearm, Lord Pumpkin, and Mantra. Firearm actually had a very cool video come with #0. It was awesome and I hope you enjoy the read. I’m thinking about breaking them out again and reading them now. Take care,
