mind the walrus posted:His introduction in "Ultron Unlimited" is pretty excellent and is almost certainly what most deep fans were thinking of when they were thinking of how movie Ultron wasn't scary or threatening enough.

You think that's grim, what if they'd actually done, y'know, AGE OF ULTRON instead of The Terrible Very Bad No Good Week of Ultron.

That's a different kind of grim.

James Spader as bantering supervillain was much, much better than the scary robot who kills literally every single person in a hamfisted reference to Bosnia.

The very last Marvel movie will be a My Dinner With Andre-esque style 3-hour conversation between Spader-bot and Loki, with Thanos as their bumbling but loveable waiter. Fury will be a rando eating alone and angrily staring at them from across the room.

VagueRant posted:Are there any badass (or even interesting) Ultron panels? I mean, the dialogue's still wordy as hell, but there's no genocide. Just Thor-punching. I wonder if Ultron ever teamed up with the Destroyer armour? Avengers 162, 171, and 202. Back then constructing robots was a sometimes food, like for when you wanted to drain the Wasp's brainlifenergy or whatever into a robot bride or something.

I love how everyone's solution for 'robot that is literally indestructible' is 'punch it more'. So how does Comics Ultron usually get defeated anyway? Also, I noticed Wonder Man in a couple of those panels. I was actually a fan of his 90s miniseries, at least before it got all dark and brooding. Anyone have scans of that? I'd especially love the '"Okay, go", Neil' page, which I remember to this day.

His outer shell is invulnerable but his innards aren't quite as durable, so Wasp goes inside and starts yanking out the wiring or something. In the Busiek/Perez arc, Hank gets a couple of loads of "Antarctic Vibranium," which liquifies nearby metal, and uses them like knuckle-dusters until Ultron stops moving.

There was also one I remember where Wonder Man just lays into Ultron, over and over again. Sure he can't break his Adamantin outer layer, but he eventuallu breaks up Ultron 's non Adamantium internal pieces.

Scarlet Witch uses crazy magic at least once, think Pym invented or borrowed something called antimetal once that did the job. Other times he's not been adamantium and just been extremely tough.

I can't decide which is the most *comics*.

Always bet on "has a power that never gets used again" with Mjolnir there.

Galactus is the Worf of Cosmic Marvel, any big space-bad gets his turn to smack Big-G around.

Wapole Languray posted:Galactus is the Worf of Cosmic Marvel, any big space-bad gets his turn to smack Big-G around. That's a bit much. Before recent years, he only got smacked around like once a decade. Unless you count that time in the 90s where his skull fell to earth to herald the arrival of some SUPER AWESOME villain.

There's a solid basis for it though. From JLA/Avengers on I've seen Galactus either chumped or neutered a lot more than his reputation would suggest.

Jesus Christ that's so 90s I'm surprised it didn't come out of DC Comics in the last five years

I think it was actually 2002-2003 immediately before Waid and Wieringo - it would've been the Carlos Pacheco / Jeph Loeb arc.

Occasionally Galactus will throw down against someone his own size. Galactus in a fist fight is the funniest thing. Comics.

There really needs to be a solo series of Galactus wandering around, eating planets, and getting into cosmic shenanigans.
