Until recently, the Main Marvel Universe Nick Fury held little appeal for me.  His recent handling by Brian Michael Bendis in the Secret Invasion cross-over has really upped his standing in my estimation. A WWII veteran and super-spy, Fury has the vigor of a much younger man thanks to the ‘Infinity formula’. 

Ultimate Nick Fury was an early test subject for the Super Soldier program.  Whether or not this gave him any lasting degree of super strength is not clear, but it has certainly retarded his aging process.  He’s a bit of a snake, teaming with Doctor Doom at one point in order to further his own agenda.  Ultimate Nick’s character design is based on Samuel L. Jackson, one very scary & cool cat.

Winner – MMU Nick wins, mostly because Ultimate Nick got booted out of the Ultimate Universe and into the Squadron Supreme-verse.

Tomorrow – Moon Knight!
