While I expected "Mutant X" to be science fiction, watching it proved that clearly erroneous. The "evil" villian was clearly Andy Warhol, while the so-called heroes were Gap-clad Abercrombie models. I took the show to be about the struggle between Waholian pop culture and the modern mass market commodification of beauty that may be traced, in part, back to that artistic movement.

In ultimate spiderman, Mary Jane knows he is spiderman, there is a big question of where their relationship is relative to peters desire to be spiderman and his desire to be with Mary Jane.

Also some very good moments with Aunt May. A lot of personal conflict stuff which is what SpiderMan has pretty much always been more about rather than the obligitory villian fight of the week.

US: 47 It was also fun, as always, to see a little bit of Peter's personal life, and I love that he and Mary Jane are an item once more. Item might not be a strong enough word, though, because really Mary's got the same good-natured busting of Peter's chops and ability to see what he can't that I'd expect from a married couple. Clearly, these two complement one another, and I love that Mary Jane in the Ultimate universe has been gifted with a sarcastic sense of humor that can match Peter's, as well as brains that make her more than just "the hero's girl."

US: 48, 49 Confrontation with JJJameson and some good Aunt May stuff.

US50 Later, Peter and Mary Jane have another one of their heart-to-hearts, and their honesty and love grows even more. But what Peter doesn't realize is that MJ has been sharing her secrets, and they're about to come to the attention of the wrong people.

Miracleman: Frequently Unanswered Questions

What's interesting about the comic book is, besides the fantastic artwork -- that is it actually has an interesting story so far:

To quote from TheFourthRail:
"Sure, this book will appeal to the grown-up reader who cherished the Autobots and Decepticons during his childhood, but it's not just the reader that's grown up. There's a darker edge to this incarnation of Optimus Prime and company. This is Transformers as conspiracy-theory book, and it's far more interesting than I ever would have expected."

Also, check out the cover of the page. The art style is in a high-quality anime-like style. It looks like something you'd find in a cell animation than in a manga-type book. This is how Transformers are suppose to look! You'll find more at the comic's producer, Dreamwave Productions.
