The last time Tony ran into Ultron was Avengers 12.1 when Ultron returned to Earth by taking over the Space Knight Armor found by Spider-woman.

But for the coordinates Tony is probably referring to the time travel story in the Heroic Age Avengers title by Bendis and JRJR. It's where Kang and Ultron's battle in the future broke the time/space continuum. Kang couldn't be Ultron which forced him to bring the Avengers to the future.

Great ep as always.

There were changes made after the uncolored preview art was shown months ago. Some of the photos were changed and I'm guessing that Thing was originally supposed to be in the story or as the guys said it could have just been a sloppy mistake. Why did Sue say Ben instead of Reed or Johnny?

So what's changed from original to the page printed?
Rom has become Ikon
extra Deadpool has become Valkyrie
Patriot now Ms America
Spidey's pic went from saying "Parker" to "Spider-Man"

Things that are different off:
Cyclops in old visor
Bucky Cap

Characters that are now dead:
Ares
Victoria Hand
Xavier
Sentry


Yeah this is probably Nick Fury's wall from Secret Invasion.

LOL good call on Cap's shield there is supposed to be a crack in it after it was shattered in Fear Itself. It was probably two months after Fear Itself where the crack suddenly disappeared in all the books.

I think things from the first arc of Avengers (vol 4) are going to come into play here...remember Ultron Vs Kang? And them breaking the Universe? Or future Stark giving Stark some future weapon? Or Ultron returning in the Avengers Point One issue where he commendeers a Space Knight armor? Hopefully all these things will come into play.

I think a good portion of the corkboard was left over from Secret Invasion...some of it is way out of date...

I get the feeling this was supposed to come out of the Ultron storyline that ran in Marvel's Cosmic titles a few years ago.

Last years Free Comic Book Day, "Avengers, Age of Ultron" shows how Ultron got to Earth.

I don't know if this is bothering anyone else, but Spidey in the AoU titles reads like Pete. In Superior Spider-Man, it's still Octavious.

After Annihilation Conquest he (digitally) returned to Earth during Siege and took over the Jocasta duplicates in the Infinite Mansion attacked Pym. That story ended with him taking Jocasta as his bride. She would split her time with wherever Ultron is (by transferring her conciousness between bodies) and here on Earth.

The FCBD issue was a reprint of Avengers 12.1.

In Superior Spidey # (something) AU we see it is Ock...but his quips do sound like Pete in the main series...funny because it's not like it should be hard to change dialogue.

Then I kind of went overboard with the variants....

If you're a Cyclops fan you must check out the AvX Consequences mini series. It's all about him and what makes him decide to become a revolutionary. Great stuff...or...you can tune in to our coverage (click image below).





All New X-Men: I liked it a lot. To me it seemed completely accessible to new readers which is the point of a number one issue. However I think you guys are reading too much into the purpose of the relaunch. It isn't a reboot like D.C. I say this because I hear a lot of Batman and Green Lantern references thrown around. The only thing Marvel Now books needs to do is be somewhat accessible. I think leaving a little leg work for the readers can be a good thing. It used to be back issue hunting now it's as easy as jumping online.

I think the only thing I could find fault is that I wanted more. Like right away, I miss the double sized first issue. I'm beginning to wonder if the purpose of them going bi-weekly for the first six issues is to build to something with the release of Uncanny X-Men #1. Can't remember what else I wanted to say...

Thor God of Thunder: next issue please.

I enjoyed Avengers Assembled 9 and i didnt think anything of it before I read it. i thought it was a fun book but without being too silly.

Yeah I thought the book was great and the light hearted approach gave it a unique feel out of all the other Marvel Now Avengers books.

With many of you confused as to Angel's status, I HIGHLY recommend The Dark Angel Saga by Rick Remender. Best X-Men stuff I've read in years.

Anyone have the podcast go into just the right channel after Jamie left?

Ditto. You guys should really really cover this...

As for David's story in X-Men: Legacy, I do understand people suffer from this same issue (I'm always reading people, so I look for these types of things), but I guess I'm questioning why his training wouldn't address dealing with his daddy issues. Sure, have multiple personalities with multiple powers is a major hurdle to jump, but part of "curing" his condition would be addressing this issue.

As I admitted, I'm not too familiar with the character (X-Men lost me when multiple titles emerged), so I don't know if it's daddy issues that's causing his MPD to develop and overtake his psyche. Continuously working on a house that's unstable will never solve the issue if work isn't starting with the foundation and working up.

Good assessment of our assessment, though.
M.

David doesn't really have "serious" daddy issue. He feels slighted because in the past Xavier has put the X-Men before him. Most recently they have been working together to get David's powers under control. David used to have a watch like device to help him select his powers but he could only access a power once and then it was gone. It looks like by working with Xavier he has been able to take more control over his powers. So while there was some underlying tension with Daddy overall they were on good terms.

If you want to read up on Legion check out the first trade of the latest New Mutants run. Zeb Wells wrote an excellent story. This is where Legion gains access to the multiple powers. Before he only had three different personalities.
