I'm dropping Ultimate X-Men

I've kept on buying this title through the good and the bad. But I've finally decided to drop it.
Millar --> 10/10
Bendis --> 7/10
Vaughn --> 4/10
Kirkman --> 6/10
So basically, starting from issue 34, none of the Ultimate X-Men stories have been that great really. The only reason why I rated Bendis so high was because of Finch's art.
Kirkman has some great ideas, but so far is doing the Bendis thing, with nothing materializing. I like some of the ideas he introduced. But so far, he's just introduced them and... nothing.
This will be the first Ultimate title I will be dropping. I was debating Ultimate Spider-Man too, but kept going for completeness. Recently though, the Blade and Clone story arcs have not been that bad. So I'll hang on for another year or so.
