I have never dropped an Ultimate title until I read Kirkman's Ultimate X-Men. I dropped it an issue before the whole "Magician" arc ended (this despite the fact that I actually like Kirkman!). He started off writing this series quite decently actually, but then it went all over the place.
I usually flip through UXM at the LCBS whenever it comes out, and I was actually quite intrigued with the fact that Ultimate Cable was actually Logan, which ALMOST made me want to pick it up again.
Then I saw the Xavier "death" last issue and the skeleton. I just hate it when things are left unresolved like that. It just means that we'll be seeing Xavier again.
Anyway, I have no intention picking up this book again.
As for Ultimate Fantastic Four... if the next arc is just as blah as this current one, I'm going to have to drop that as well.
