At last month's New York Comic Con, Marvel Comics confirmed that it will bring its new Ultimate Universe to an end next year, closing out its five hit titles and wrapping things up in an epic final saga, Ultimate Endgame.

Igniting the industry with its bold storytelling and modern takes on the Marvel mythos, the Ultimate Universe will now be able to be enjoyed in its entirety for years to come. But it’s not over yet! Today, you can get a sneak peek at what's to come in March 2026, including the final issue of Peach Momoko's Ultimate X-Men, the third chapter of Ultimate Endgame, and new issues of Ultimates and Ultimate Wolverine.

The final issues of Ultimate Spider-Man and Ultimate Black Panther will hit stands in January, but their cast of characters will continue to play key roles in Ultimate Endgame, which brings the line's various heroes and plot threads together for the final showdown with the mastermind behind the Ultimate Universe, The Maker.

Bid farewell to visionary creator Peach Momoko's unforgettable vision of mutantkind in Ultimate X-Men #24, and discover the Maker's true power in Ultimate Endgame #3 by Deniz Camp, Jonas Scharf, and Terry Dodson.

Then, we'll witness an inspiring turning point for the resistance in Ultimates #21 by Camp when Luke Cage and the New Avengers debut, before beholding an X-showdown for the ages as Wolverine and Jean Grey team up in Ultimate Wolverine #14 by Chris Condon and Alessandro Cappuccio.

Here's a first look at what's to come next February...

Fully lost interest in the Ultimate universe when it was announced it was only lasting TWO years. What a wasted opportunity and potential

Considering how slowly this 'amazing' line gives us results, the last issued are either gknna be crambed with conclusions or the series's are gonna end on a lot of questions.

I like the theory that the Ghost Riders are Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, that would be pretty cool
