Here he's able to tone down the dark humor enough to actually have a story. It was a lot of fun, and had the inventively iconoclastic moments that made Millar interesting in the first place.<br /><br />Absolutely loved some of the retcon explanations Millar made for the stupider baggage of the Ultimate Universe, such as making Orson Scott Card's Ultimate Iron Man series all just a cheesy anime, and having Tony pay Thor with charitable donations to get him to drop the Faux-Shakespearean vocabulary.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17773416732192167277noreply@blogger.com
