I'm having a hard time making myself care about the Ultimate U these days. The whole universe is so weirded out and out of whack after Ultimatum. Anything I read set before that story just doesn't matter.I'm pleased that Damon Lindeloff introduced a She-Hulk to the Ultimate U, and I like that it is a surprise person even more. It makes a lot of sense to get this person some powers and let her into the punching portion of the Hulk's universe. The actual battle between Hulk and Wolverine isn't so much a battle as a butt-kicking. When the Hulk gets going, Wolverine never really stands a chance.
Lindeloff plays around with timelines, flashbacks, and stream-of-consciousness narration, but the outcome of this fight is never really in doubt. This is a trade where the details read better than the big fight.
Leinil Francis Yu does a nice job. Everyone has seen that panel of Hulk ripping Wolverine in half (adamantium what?), and it does look good. I love Hulk's ridiculous Eastern garb too. It's fun seeing the big green galoot in something besides purple pants. The She-Hulk design is pretty good too, although there is only so much you can do with a 7 foot tall, green, nearly naked lady.
