Just something I want to note here-Spiderman theme, Danny Elfman? As in Batman, The Simpsons? I'm hoping that's the recent movie theme because I'm a big fan of that.

Anyway, from what you've written here, there seems to be a lot to like about the Ultimate line. The concept, a quick way in to the Marvel universe, is genius for those of this generation. The spins they've put on characters such as Rhino not being a guy in a suit, are welcome.

I also have a suggestion for a comic, beardwithglasses, if you could take all those different Spider-man titles ("Amazing" "Sensational" etc) and...run with it. You know what I mean, don't you?

Yep that's him. Though only for the first two. He didn't like working with Raimi and walked out before three. The theme is still in 3 cos it's part of the brand or something, but Elfman didn't do the rest of the score. Which is funny because I think SM3 has the best score of the 3, though the worst version of the main theme.

Well technically Ultimate R.H.I.N.O. is the suit itself. More of an Iron Man suit though than a goofy costume.

I'm not sure I do =P
