Typed my comment before I watched the video. Wow. I feel like crying for some reason. They deserved so much better.

@ComicToyReviews Quality is everything and even Malibu put care into their paper and your correct the TNG of comic book fans will not get the chance to read a TPB :(.

@DavidLeeT Yeah they were great. :-) I'd say back then I sent overall the same amount of letters to the big two, as I sent the Ultras. It wasn't much and I almost never write, but I did send some stuff. With the Internet I really think it's destroyed that level of communication with publishers. I never write a book now that's for sure. That method is outdated now. And you can interact with comic creators and fans in the various forums.

This was a very cool video bro, thats really nice of them allways replying. So how many times did you write dc and marvel and they didnt reply?
I bought Hardcase, Prime, and The Strangers and before I knew it, I was buying EVERYTHING!! And, like you, I wrote them and I got a ton of stuff, too. I used to even get copies of comics before they were even colored. In return, Dianne Botta (The Editor in Chief!!) just wanted my opinion of what I read. Simply amazing company. Thanks for making this video!!

@d21lewis Awesome story, thanks for the comments. :-) Totally agree with you, such a fan friendly company. And this was before the Internet age. And mail postage to fans actually cost them money. A great company and characters.

They knew how to treat their fan base but why has Marvel has not kept their promise from 2005 of bringing the Ultraverse back, come on Marvel get the finger out please :(.

@UltimateHulk32011 I got to watch that show and the Night Man live action series which I never saw all of, and speaking of which it's cool to know they had a TV series on one of their books. :-) A great company for the fans and it's nice to know people still remember their characters. Most companies that go under are quickly forgotten by most everybody. The Ultras refuse to go quietly into the night. :-)

@UltimateHulk32011 The cool thing is the books page quality still is good and didn't yellow. Which is good for fans cause I doubt Marvel will ever reprint these books cause of financial reasons.
