* ''ComicBook/TheUltimates'' Hickman wrote the title's relaunch under the title ''Ultimate Comics: The Ultimates'' with artist Esad Ribic (who would later work with Hickman on ''Secret Wars''). Despite it being the best regarded UltimateMarvel title since Creator/MarkMillar's original run, it was buried when DC put out their New 52 book. Thus the book was cancelled early and had a rushed ending by another author.
