> penultimate

Unless I'm misunderstanding your statement, I think this word means nearly the exact opposite of what you think it means.

"Penultimate" does not mean "supremely ultimate". It actually means second from last.

Next to last or almost last as in latest in time, not as in ranked on some other axis. Implying that the series is unfinished because there will ultimately be another booming industry the torch is passed to.
