* CassandraTruth: Played for drama. Xavier agreed that the vision of the aliens dying (that he got in a dream, as well as Jean) was not a made-up montage, but thought that it was just a visual metaphor of loliness and abused from some new mutant. It turns out that the visions were completely what they appeared to be.

The "Ultimate Galactus Trilogy" is a group of 3 miniseries that adapted ComicBook/TheComingOfGalactus to the ComicBook/UltimateMarvel comics. Those miniseries are Ultimate Nightmare, Ultimate Secret and Ultimate Extinction.

Ultimate Nightmare: A weird vision of aliens dying is suddenly seen all across the world, in all types of media. S.H.I.E.L.D. locates the source to be from Russia, so Nick Fury goes to investigate with Captain America, Black Widow, and the Falcon. The X-Men also notices it, and Xavier send Wolverine, Collosus and Jean Grey. Both teams, unaware of each other, enter into an abandoned military bunker. After dealing with several weird things, they find the Vision, an alien robot, who warns them about the coming of Gah Lak Tus.

Ultimate Secret: An alien invasion by the Kree tries to destroy an experimental ship. Dr. Philip Lawson, the creator of the ship, manages to stop them. It turns out that Lawson is a Kree himself, Captain Mahr Vehl, who had to infiltrate earth but actually came to root for humanity. With his help, the heroes infiltrate the ship of commander Yahn Rgg and steal their info about Gah Lak Tus.

Ultimate Extinction: Gah Lak Tus is not really a single creature, it's a HiveMind of millions of sentient ships. Xavier and Jean Grey try to make contact with it, but it only gets disgusted. Reed Richards used an experimental gun that released part of the energy of the Big Bang. This destroys 20% of the entity, who flees.

!Tropes:
* AssholeVictim: The X-Men announce that they intend to liberate all those Russian prisoners who had been experimented with and then left abandoned in the bunker. One of those guys, who could turn into a giant, thanks in full SarcasmMode about the hero who comes to liberate them, and gets enraged, thinking that it's just psychological torture.
* TheBusCameBack: Hey, look! Ultimate Extinction features Ultimate ComicBook/MistyKnight! If you asked "ultimate who?", don't be ashamed: she had not been used in comics since the 1970s.
* DoNotAdjustYourSet: The warning released by Vision was seen all across the world, in all forms of media.
* HumanAreWarriors: After the victory, Fury proudly pointed that humans can defeat anyone.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: When "Ultimate Nightmare" was first released, it was not marketed as a story about Galactus in any way, so when the Vision says what was it all about, it was a genuine surprise for the audience. Now, with the three miniseries sold as the "Ultimate Galactus Trilogy", it is no surprise that it involves Galactus.
* PragmaticAdaptation: Ellis redesigned Galactus as a HiveMind because he did thought that a giant man with a purple helmet would not fit the grounded tone of the Ultimate universe.
