Ultimate Marvel’s plans include introducing a native Hawkeye plus revealing the secret behind Momoko’s mutants

Superhero comics continue to do some creative swings of late as Marvel continues their Ultimate line along with its upcoming introductions to their stories. Solicits for October include an Ultimate Hawkeye being introduced that’s Native (but not American as there is no America in this universe), the introduction of a new form of Anti-vibranium in Black Panther’s world, and the reveals of several mutants just before they battle against the Shadow King. If that wasn’t enough Uncle Ben and J.J. get into some trouble.

You can read more in Marvel’s official press release below.

The Maker, a deranged alternate version of Reed Richards, manipulated his way through the timestream to create a world without superheroes, but when he emerges from captivity in 16 months, he’s in for a rude awakening! In his absence, super heroes, nations, and young mutants are reclaiming their destiny in four hit titles: Jonathan Hickman and Marco Checchetto’s ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN, Bryan Hill and Stefano Caselli’s ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER, Peach Momoko’s ULTIMATE X-MEN, and Deniz Camp and Juan Frigeri’s ULTIMATES. Today, fans can peek ahead at what’s to come in Marvel’s bold new Ultimate line this October.

The cover reveals and synopses for October’s issues tease the debut of the latest hero that the Ultimates seek to inspire—HAWKEYE; a team-up between the unexpected but instantly iconic best friend duo UNCLE BEN and J. JONAH JAMESON; BLACK PANTHER getting a mystical power-up thanks to the mysterious anti-vibranium; and ARMOR, MAYSTORM, and their fellow mutants banding together to discover the origin and extent of their powers.
