[Speculation] The Ultimates - Grand Theft America
This arc is nearly upon us, and rather than it in itself be totally self contained, I think it will answer some questions raised in the current arc.
Firstly, I certainly feel that this arc will cover Ultron. Now, the arc is called Grand Theft America right? That suggests it's been hijacked, taken power of without permission or without all the votes being counted. Now, I'm still of the opinion that Ultron leaked the files from his head plugged into the SHIELD computers (I may be right, we'll see), and if this is the case, then this adds a whole new dimension to what Ultron can do, he can do anything effectively as the world is run by computers. This may seem like an old plot, and I'm really not sure if it will run this way, but I believe the ultimisation of Ultron will be one that makes him more than just a big scary robot to fight.
Also, I feel that Ultron has this massive desire for order, to do what is right, he has a robots mind, and that's what computers like to do best, they like to order things, they have ideals. And he will want to enforce this order on everything (an NWO).
I think this is very Millar to do, and is a good parody of the real world too.
One thing that struck me on the Ultimate 2 #7 cover (the beginning of this arc), was that we have an army of super guys. Now one thing that Ultron is most famous for, is replicating himself. I do wonder that (If this arc covers Ultron at all) we may even see a parody of this cover, with dozens of Ultrons.
Now, this speculation isn't exactly baseless, but we have a long time to go before we really see how this is played out. Also, with Hanks Defenders. And the Union.
See, we have a lot of superguys here. Perhaps too many. But I don't think they are being introduced as such a passing idea. I feel that they will play important roles with the up and coming story.
Think I'm close? Or too early to say just yet for certain.
