Comments on: Ultimate Edit Week 3: Day One http://www.4thletter.net/2008/02/ultimate-edit-week-3-day-one/ we like talking about comics, and hopefully you like reading us talking about comics.

The backup still makes no sense but there's some vague possible explanation there. Of course, it requires Loeb to have read Uncanny, and I wouldn't blame him if he hadn't.

Anyone want a piece?" That actually made me go and check the previous two issues. Both of them have exactly one page of talking before a double splash page where a completely gratuitous fight scene breaks out. Issue 1, Venom punches Thor through the wall of the mansion. Issue 2, Spider-Man is randomly assaulted by Bullhawkeye. Issue 3, Wolverine fights Bullhawkeye for no reason. And while Loeb's first issue on Hulk at least spent a couple of pages on character merely recreating a fight scene before the gratuitous double splash page, issue 2 also has a random action-packed double splash page after just one page of talking. I seriously think the man might have ADHD. “We’ve gone on too long without a random fight scene. Anyone want a piece?”

It's tradition. Speaking of vague segues, I love that Ultimate Edit wasn't just a one time thing for the first issue. I've half a mind to collect all five "issues" in a .rar and call it a trade. Also there's something utterly endearing about Wolverine's Canadian pride. He totally says aboot. The person with the tiny power is always tiny. It’s tradition.

The inverted commas either side of "writer". Also, wolverine has fanged teeth, uneven sideburns and a divit in his chin. Captain America's eyebrows come through his mask. Wasp is small.... why? Wouldn't that be tiring? So many questions have been raised. So many will never be answered. you know the little thing that makes me smile more than anything in these edits?
