Ultimate X: Origins, also known as Ultimate Comics: X is a limited series from Marvel Comics written by Jeph Loeb with pencils by Art Adams, originally planned as an ongoing bi-monthly series.

The story picks up after the events in Ultimatum and serves as a quasi-sequel/spin-off of Ultimate X-Men. Ultimate X was originally scheduled to be published bi-monthly, alternating months with Loeb's other Ultimate title Ultimate Comics: New Ultimates. However, Ultimate X faced several delays, becoming a prologue to Ultimate Comics: X-Men.
