The new Ultimate Universe is expanding again in January with the reveal of the Ultimate Guardians of the Galaxy, who will debut in Ultimates #8. But that's just the start of what's ahead for the Ultimate Universe as it reaches the end of its first year - and closes in on the return of the Maker, the villain who created the new Ultimate Universe, and who could change everything when he escapes his current captivity.
In Ultimates #8, the new Ultimate Guardians of the Galaxy are revealed as Captain Marvel, Star-Lord, Ultimate Nullifier, and of course Cosmo the space dog. Judging by the issue's cover by Dike Ruan, Captain Marvel is a Kree warrior of some kind, while Star-Lord appears to be an older sage. Ultimate Nullifier carries a pair of pistols just like his lesser known core Marvel Universe counterpart, and Cosmo is, well, a very good dog.
