Finished reading Ultimates: Omniversal: Start With The Impossible, writer Al Ewing brings together a new superhero team to tackle the problems facing the main Marvel universe due and the ramifications of Marvel's Secret Wars event. The book opens with Black Panther and America Chavez successfully sealing up a breach in the fabric of Space-Time which leads to America being recruited into the Ultimates after meeting with Blue Marvel and Spectrum. The next story has the team coming to the decision to stop Galactus form devouring more wolds by using the machine that made him who he is now and changing Galactus into the lifebringer. The next mission for the Ultimates leads the team into the Neutral Zone, a place beyond the know multiverse in hope to mend the time stream due to many heroes and villains constantly abusing it. Only for the team to discover that Anti-Man, the person behind the death Blue Marvel's wife and his former best friend. The final part of the book sees Galactus fitting into his new role as Lifebringer which has come to the attention of Lord Chaos and Master Order who plan on making Galactus the devourer once again only for Galactus to declare that he won't go back to the way he was without a fight. Overall this was a good book as it dives into depths of the cosmic side of the Marvel universe by pulling in aspects form past stories. There is a great amount of character moments and even development with Galactus and Blue Marvel have time within the book for their origins to be showcased with great affect due to both stories factoring on the main story. The art throughout the book is great as Kenneth Rocafort does an amazing job in the action set pieces between the breathtakingly designed creatures the heroes face within the book. Additionally the art by Christian Ward in the Galactus centric story takes a bit of getting used to due to how different it is compared to the rest of the book but still works well for the story it's used for. 7.5/10.
