Ultimate Invasion #3-4: Through the Looking Glass

"I think it's fair to say that both Bryan and I have already put in our time doing Ultimate books, so when Marvel laid this project in front of us, we both knew there needed to be a good reason to revisit the idea of 'Ultimate Comics' beyond telling a cool story or just getting to work together, which is something we've been trying to do for years. So with that in mind, it couldn't be replicating or revisiting what Bryan did in the original Ultimates — creating a streamlined, modernized version that would eventually become the spine of the MCU — and it certainly couldn't be what I did, which was a final chapter of a pre-existing universe." - Jonathan Hickman

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: it’s certainly cool, but it’s not really the Ultimate universe, is it? The only real correlation is the lowercase text boxes, which is just a Hickman-esque thing anyway with how Krakoa’s played out. And again, whatever happened with the Maker (or at least a Maker) getting back to the Ultimate universe back in Venom?

That's what I want to know. Is this the same universe, just the Maker went back in time to mess everything up? And why was he so damn happy when he saw the state of it back then?
