Cataclysm: The Ultimates' Last Stand
by Brian Michael Bendis
So this is written by two writers, and you can TELL the difference.
The Ultimates and X-Men are not written by Bendis and they are...well to be frank, pretty fucking poor. They feel like side stories within their own book. I absoutely dreaded getting through the slog of the X-Men story with Rogue as the main focus point, she sucked here. And the Ultimates was messy with messy art.
Luckily the main event and Spider-Man are written by Bendis and are far far better. In fact you can read Ultimate Spider-Man stuff by itself and it makes sense and does a great job of helping Miles grow in new and exciting ways, a secret unleashed, and Bombshell even gets some great character development. Overall the Ultimate Spider-Man stuff is great.
The main event, the world and all it's heroes, and the dick Reed Richard, aka, The Maker, find a way to stop the big gigantic Galactus. It's fun, over the top, dumb at times, but still has some great moments for Spidy, Reed, and even Thor. Overall a okay event.
So X-men and Ultimates suck ass, but Spider-Man is great, and the main event is decent enough. A 2.5 out of 5.
