The Ultimate Universe is coming to an end — but not before Marvel Comics adds one more title to its line-up.
Marvel has announced that April 2026 will see not only the final issues of Ultimate Wolverine, The Ultimates, and Ultimate Endgame, but a brand-new one-off “final goodbye” from the writers of the Ultimate line since its 2024 relaunch, titled Ultimate Universe Finale. Released a week after the final issue of Ultimate Endgame, the special issue will be written by Deniz Camp, Chris Condon, Jonathan Hickman, Bryan Hill and Peach Momoko, with art from Alessandro Cappuccio, Stefano Caselli, Marco Checchetto, Juan Figeri, and Momoko — suggesting that this will be an anthology of short epilogue stories for each of the five Ultimate series. Phil Noto provides cover art, which looks like this:
Marvel’s description of the issue is simply, “Following the events of Ultimate Endgame #5, the creative teams of all the Ultimate books come together one last time to say farewell…”
The announcement of the new addition to the Ultimate line-up also included the following description of the relaunched Ultimate Universe line: “A two-year project told in real time, the Ultimate Universe was a first-of-its-kind line of storytelling that quickly became history in the making! With an epic can’t-miss conclusion this April, it’ll be able to be enjoyed from beginning to end as a complete, interconnected, and deeply rewarding saga.”
Ultimate Universe Finale is set for release April 29.
