What do expect from a company with no editorial/publisher control?

Nah, it's just the ulti-IDES of March.
Sorry, bad pun there.

Look at the X-books in June; almost all being released on the last week of the month: Uncanny, Wolverine: First Class, X-men: First Class, Wolverine Origins and X-men Legacy. That's quite a mess.

It saddens me greatly that Ultimate v3 1 is getting apparently a third printing.

"It saddens me greatly that Ultimate v3 1 is getting apparently a third printing."
But doesn't that mean that MARVEL is selling that title well (regardless of art or story)?

I think that's the problem.

I wonder if they have cleaned up the art at all in the new printings?

Marvel's never cared much about spacing their marquee titles out; I think that at some point during Supreme Power's first run, they shipped all five of their top-selling books during the same week or something similarly comical.

so this is why the phrase was "March on Ultimatum"
