After closing out 2009 with a series of Spider-Man teaser images, Marvel Comics has struck again, tease-ifying their devoted fanbase. Released simply with the tagline "Who or What is Ultimate X?", Marvel's latest press release is advertising Jeph Loeb and Arthur Adams' Ultimate X, debuting in February.
The official solicitation for Ultimate X #1 reads "Who—or what—is Ultimate X? The answers and even more secrets arrive in the all new ULTIMATE X ongoing bi-monthly series from the superstar dream team of JEPH LOEB and ART ADAMS. Wolverine is dead. Captain America is a fugitive. The Fantastic Four disbanded. Lives have been destroyed and nothing can ever be the same—is there any hope left? It all begins with a search for a brand new character whose identity will leave jaws on the floor and change the Ultimate Universe forever."
UPDATE: Marvel released another teaser image, this time filling in one of the silhouettes above. Observe:
