Ultron Triumphant over Avengers (Vision. Thor. Captain America, Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, Iron Man, Firestar, Black Panther)
By: George Perez

Plot -
Captain America leads the remaining Avengers (Thor, Iron Man, Black Panther, and Firestar) against limitless Ultrons. Back at the Avengers Mansion, Jarvis awakes only to find that Justice, still with his broken leg, is missing. Back in Slorenia, Ultron is downloading the brain-patterns of his captives (Wasp, Giant-Man, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, and the Grim Reaper) to be the start of his humaniod army. GIant-Man battles with the realization that Ultron's personality is based on him and that Ultron is him, devoid of morality. Back on the warfront, the Avengers and the army move forward, trying to make their way through the thousands of Ultrons. Back at Ultron's base, the Vision, using his intangibility, escapes and tries to confront the delusional robot. The Vision offers his "father" a pardon, but Ultron instead nearly kills the android. During the confusion, the Grim Reaper also escapes and using one of Ultron's weapons, frees the Avengesr. The tired and weakened Avengers prepare to attack, when the side of Ultron's base implodes, revealing the other Avengers. The battle rages, each Avenger pusing themselves as far as they can go, but Ultron seems too powerful. Then, Justice appears with vibrantium, an anti-metal that could destroy Ultron and his minions. Giant-Man, still pained over his creation of Ultron, attacks the robot with the anti-metal and destroys for what seems like for good. The Avengers re-group and celebrate, while the villianous Grim Reaper escapes. The Avengers go home, while back at the base, Alkhema, one of Ultron's creations and an Avengers' foe, picks up Ultron's insane work right where he left off.
