Date: 2014-09-05 03:47 pm (UTC)FF just got cancllled and its rumored that the Ultimates are gone next year. At this point the ultimate universe is like Earth-2 where the planet has gone through so mch devastation that i'm unsure how it keeps life.
My guess is the Incurions and time running out will kill the Ultimate universe with all the good stuff like Miles being thrown over to the 616 relaunch.

Date: 2014-09-05 05:05 pm (UTC)Ultimates is the freshest and most vibrant that the Ultimate U has felt in years, and it doesn't have the love it or leave it pacing that Bendis' work suffers from. Plus it doesn't feel like a teen book being written by a middle aged man, which is a pretty big advantage as those things go, in making it feel modern and honest.
I really don't think Miles and the other good elements of the Ultimate U will folded be into the mainstream universe. First of all because people have been predicting it for years and it hasn't happened yet, so it's kind of a Chicken Little situation as far as I can tell, and second because it would defeat the point. Having them as multiversal refugees would ruin the grounded approach, and just retconning them in would render them irrelevant.
Plus I don't think there's all that much to be gained from shifting them into the 616, Miles would be even more overshadowed than he is now, and isn't going to bring in many readers if he just gets demoted to being Spider-Teen or something. The most folding them in might do is piss of Bendis by ruining his sandbox, and I don't think Marvel wants to do that.
My thinking is that so long as Brian Bendis sticks around at Marvel and wants to do Ultimate Spider-Man, both that title and by extension the Ultimate Universe will be sustained purely by Bendis' star power.
With that I mind I think Marvel might as well just keep using it as as testing ground for new concepts and creators that they don't want to drop into the mainstream universe untested.
