Ultron returns to capture the Avengers one after the other using synthezoids of the Avengers. Synthezoids are synthetic humans. As the Vision assists him in defeating every Avenger, what will save the Avengers from defeat?

I’m not sure when Vision showed up originally in this series, but I really liked his presence in this episode. What happens here is what happened in the previous series. The Avengers’ are slowly building u their past history with a modern twist. The Vision is an Avengers’ favourite character and quite powerful. Here he showed some of that as he nearly defeated all the Avengers in combat. What I didn’t like was how he got pummelled in the end. I mean, I know it happens all the time for the Vision to get trashed, especially since he’s a robot, but to have his face mangled just after one punch from Captain America is odd. I’m not sure if this version of the Vision shares the same brain patterns as Wonder Man. Since there’s no Scarlet Witch in this series, it doesn’t really matter, right?

This was probably one of the most satisfying episodes of season two where we could see a lot of action and what makes the team tick. Ultron never seems to die so I’m sure he’ll be back later. What I liked about this episode was his obsession with the Wasp just like in the comics. He considers her his mom in comics.
