It’s the Beginning of the End for Marvel’s Ultimate Universe

Marvel’s new Ultimate Universe has quickly become popular with readers, but even successful stories eventually conclude. It seems that’s the case for this one as well.

Okay, so as a huge fan, it’s kinda bittersweet knowing the current runs of Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate Wolverine, and Avengers are wrapping up. But Marvel just dropped some hints about what’s coming in March 2026, and things are getting intense! The previews for Ultimate Wolverine #15, Ultimate Endgame #4, and Ultimates #22-23 suggest some major surprises – we’re talking characters coming back and some really epic battles. I’m already on the edge of my seat!

Ultimate Endgame Wraps Up the Ultimate Universe With a Bang

Several of Marvel’s Ultimate comic series, including Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate Black Panther, and Ultimate X-Men, will be finished by March 2026. However, the stories aren’t truly over! Ultimate Endgame will continue the narrative, and its next-to-last issue promises a big surprise.

The upcoming clash between Peter Parker and The Maker in Ultimate Endgame #4 is a major turning point, so Marvel is keeping the cover image secret until the issue is released later this month. While The Maker doesn’t approve of how things are going, Earth’s heroes are uniting to fight against him.

In Ultimate Wolverine #15, Logan temporarily loses control and falls back into his Winter Soldier persona, and only Jean Grey can help him recover. Issues #22 and #23 of Ultimates are particularly important, featuring a dramatic conflict between Captain America and his ex-partner, and an unexpected alliance between Thor and his enemy, Surtur.

Marvel Comics will release several Ultimate Universe titles in March 2026, including Ultimates #22-23, Ultimate Wolverine #15, and Ultimate Endgame #4.
