In the latest issue of *The Ultimates*, Marvel's Ultimate Universe delivers a shocking blow by permanently killing off the Hulk in a gruesome battle against She-Hulk. The fight escalates as She-Hulk, fueled by rage, decimates Hulk after he is weakened by the K'un-Lun rebel Sheng Qi. This brutal death is emblematic of the violent tone set in the Ultimate Universe, where major characters often meet irreversible ends. The narrative underscores that death is truly permanent in this alternate reality, as seen in the fates of other heroes like Peter Parker and Captain America, who also faced horrific demises. The Maker, a central antagonist, has orchestrated the downfall of many iconic characters, further darkening the storyline. With Hulk's death, the stakes are raised, and the implications for the remaining heroes are dire. The Ultimates #24, featuring this pivotal moment, is now available from Marvel Comics.
