Though based largely on the Ultimate comic line, the story differs a great deal. The Ultimates initially did not work together as they were all doing their own things. Bruce Banner became the Hulk in an attempt to bring the team together, their first mission. Giant Man beat his wife and was expelled by the team and divorced by Janet, though he did die years after the video was made. The Chitauri siege and death of Herr Kleiser took place in the American southwest.

The original of  were based on the team seen here as the producers felt audiences would already be familiar with them.
