The Ultimate Universe was a fresh start for our favorite Marvel characters, bringing a new take on their stories and introducing new favorites, such as Miles Morales.

What’s on the Marvel Ultimate Universe Reading Order?

Most people know that the main Marvel Comics universe (Earth 616), has been going on for a long time. Spider-man has long grown up, and all of our heroes have had more adventures than is possibly realistic. Well the Ultimate Universe was a way to get around that. It essentially started fresh, with new origins for all the major Marvel characters. New characters from the Ultimate Universe are now mainstream, the most notable of which is Miles Morales, a fresh new Spider-man.

For those who are intimidated by the sheer number of stories in the 616 universe, the Ultimate Universe is a great place to start. There’s far fewer storylines and collections to have to deal with.
