- Avengers #0[1/2]
- Avengers #19-22
The media give their take on all that's been happening with the Avengers, lately. Despite having successfully defeated the Squadron Supreme, the Grim Reaper and Pagan since their return from seeming death, public opinion on Earth's Mightiest Heroes varies. People love Firestar, but aren't so keen on Justice. Scarlet Witch and Wonder Man's relationship struggles under the media spotlight. The team are accused of religious bigotry for not taking on Triathlon, a member of the Triune Understanding. Even defeating the new Firebrand and the terrorist group the Flaming Sword does nothing to help their image. Watching all of this, Ultron plans his next move, unaware that he's being watched in turn...
Avengers #19
The Avengers are pursued by the press over their issues with the Triune Understanding until the Wasp with news that Hank Pym's been kidnapped. Alkhema destroys the Wakanda Design Group who build the Avengers' Quinjets and plans to kill the Avengers before Ultron can to spoil his fun. Firestar almost sacrifices to herself to stop Alkhema, bu the Scarlet Witch throws a hex that messes with her insides. Meanwhile, Ultron and an army of robots under his command kill every last person in Slorenia.
Wasp, Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man and Vision look for clues at Hank Pym's lab, only for an army of Ultrons to capture them. They find themselves in Slorenia as Ultron's prisoners, with him proclaiming them and the Grim Reaper as is family. The rest of the Avengers agree to go into Slorenia ahead of UN troops, while the injured Justice remains behind at Avengers Mansion.
Avengers #21
Ultron plans to use the brain patterns of his captors to create a race of robots. The AVengers discover Slorenia's dead citizens have been 'resurrected' as cyborg zombies under Ultron's control. The team fight their way through them and a number of earlier Ultron models. Following immensely difficult wins, they soon discover the Ultrons number in the hundreds, at least...
Vision breaks free of his bonds and offers the hand of friendship to Ultron who doesn't fall for it, but it buys the Vision enough time to free his team mates. Having fought a whole army of Ultrons, the rest of the Avengers arrive but still can't defeat the real deal. Justice arrives with Antarctic Vibranium (better known as Anti-Metal). Hank Pym grows to Giant-Man size and pummels Ultron to wreckage with it. The Avengers leave Slorenia, unaware that Alkhema has claimed the brainwave files of Ultron's 'family'.
