I just read Ultimate Spider-Man Annual #1 which paired up Spidey and Shadowcat (yes, they knew each other's identities), and I love the idea. Anyone else have a good idea for an X-Men/Marvel pairing?

(Don't just spam this thread with random pairings, have at least some sort of reason or explanation.)
 
Hmm how about Iceman and Firebird? And about Spidey and Kitty. Could never work in the Core 616 Marvel Universe. Ew. Ew. Ew. Kitty's several years younger than 616 core MU Spidey and loves Colossus. Funny thing is..Colossus is Gay in the Ultimate universe.

Soo, how about Ultimate Colossus and Ultimate Quicksilver? Ultimate Pietro's been kinda on the fence I heard. He also digs his sister too. Good thing I don;t read the ultimate books.
 
Well in the comic I mentioned, Kitty had just broken up with Iceman, and Spidey had just broken up with MJ.
 
Ultimate Universe is so wrong in so many levels. To go into detail would mean this topic going way, way off topic.

That's what these hardcore people don't understand. Another universe isn't wrong, it's just that--another universe. It's different, that's all.
 
The Ultimate universe is like the Cliffs notes to the core Marvel universe. You get the basic facts, but you get none of the REAL emotion. They jump into all the big storylines too quickly without giving you time to grow attached. There IS something wrong with a universe that's existed for less than five being used to usurp the existing one for no other reason than giving people a shortcut instead of making them understand 60 years of history. For those of us who have sat through these characters, it's an insult. Were all the stories gems? God, no. But it was through the bad ones that you really came to appreciate the GOOD stories. If not for Captain America VS Madcap, then the Red Skull would look like some random Nazi relic. The Ultimate universe has thousands of problems because it tries to be what it's not: the core universe of Marvel. And I blame Joe Quesada for that. And when he dies, I'll dance on his grave. Which is a statement I reserve for...well...him. Of all the people on the planet Earth.

But as far as pairings go, it's kind of hard to come up with them, since most are either set, or heavily intoned. The last big uncertainty we had was Quicksilver/Crystal/Sersi/Black Knight, which was confusing to no end. Well...that and Emma Frost/Cyclops/Phoenix/Wolverine...but with Emma involved it's just crap, and I PRAY they reveal that Emma's been mind-controlling Cyclops all along and actually been a Hellfire Club spy.
