We should have named this episode after the Seinfeld TV show, cause we just made up an entire show out of nothing.  Is Marvel looking to end the Ultimate universe? Only according to one writer of Ultimate X-Men. But seeing how fast he deleted his tweets, the only thing ending may be the writer's tenure at Marvel. Dynamite Comics has found a new home.
