Written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by Matt Wagner, it kicks off a 16-issue anthology series designed to introduce classic Marvel heroes into the newly established, modernized Ultimate Universe (Earth-1610).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePlot Synopsis\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe issue features the first-ever meeting between Ultimate Spider-Man and Ultimate Wolverine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePeter Parker is still a young teenager adjusting to his new superpowers and dealing with intense anxiety. Seeing news reports of anti-mutant hysteria spreading across New York City, Peter begins to panic, terrified that his spider-powers mean he is actually a mutant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMeanwhile, Wolverine (Logan) is tracked down and ambushed in the middle of Times Square by his fierce rival Sabretooth and heavily armed Weapon X operatives. Their brutal mutant brawl spills out into the public streets. Forcing his fears aside, Spider-Man leaps into the crossfire to help Wolverine fight off the attackers. The issue ends with a lighthearted comedic scene where a starstruck Peter tries to adopt Wolverine's tough \"bad boy\" persona at school to stand up to Flash Thompson—with predictably embarrassing results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eCultural \u0026amp; Historical Impact\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0in;\" type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003eThe Blueprint: Writer Brian Michael Bendis used this series as a testing ground to introduce modern, grounded versions of major Marvel icons.
