Annihilation Conquest

[TheCorpulent1]

That's the most unreliable thing of all.

 

[PhotoJones]

You know what's really reliable? Lee Weeks art.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Very much so.

I wonder if Ultron's got any new powers or boosts or anything. Annihilus was way more powerful than usual in Annihilation, so it's possible that they've done something similar for Ultron in Conquest.

 

[PhotoJones]

I'm sure Ultron's a helluva lot more powerful then he's been in the past. He's got the Phalanx's hive mind at his disposal, for one. And two, it looks like his physical body has undergone a few upgrades. He looks pretty badass.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I hope it's an adamantium body. Ultron without adamantium is like... well, Wolverine without adamantium.

Oh, I also hope we get something to bridge the gap between feminUltron over in MA and Conquest's ultra-manly Ultron. I think that might be too much to hope for, though.

 

[PhotoJones]

I'd be shocked if his body wasn't adamantium. As for bridging the gap between MA and this, I'd say that's just not going to happen, unfortunately.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Who knows? Maybe Bendis'll at least throw in something where Ultron winds up in space. Sadly, that would be enough for me at this point.

 

[PhotoJones]

His MA story will end how every story he writes that involves the Sentry ends; Ultron will get tossed into the sun.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Heh, maybe the Sentry's aim'll be slightly off this time. Ta-da: bridge to Conquest.

 

[PhotoJones]

Whatever makes you happy, man.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Heh, maybe the Sentry's aim'll be slightly off this time. Ta-da: bridge to Conquest.

"Throughout the void of space, I found myself. Firstly, I didn't enjoy being a woman, since it sort of symbolized everything I hate and all. Secondly, it rocks having eight eyes. I'm my own laser light show."

 

[PhotoJones]

Everything Ultron hates can be symbolized by a woman?

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Humanity.

 

[PhotoJones]

How is humanity represented better in a woman as opposed to a man?

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

It's not. But he currently is a woman, which is biological/human in any which way.

 

[PhotoJones]

And his old form was clearly based on the male anatomy (lack of boobs, ass and otherwise womanly curves). I just don't see how you're saying his female form represents what he hates any more then his old male form.

 

[necross20]

The Phalanx seem to be different under Ultron's control. They seem to have a great deal more freel will and desire currently. This isn't how the Phalanx hive mind usually is right?

Technicality all you got going for you?

They made a statement that they are more like the race they originally come from, in thinking some allowance of individuality will help in their progress and survival.

 

[PhotoJones]

"Technicality"? You mean "logic"?

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

No, technicality.

Logic would imply you've taken all sorts of information into account, rather than a single word, and expanded on it exponentially. Especially when it was all originally a joke.

Oh, ok thanks

You seem like an intelligent person. That's why it's so strange when you sometimes have complete lapses in the logic and reason departments. Joke or no joke, we can only go by what you actually type. Things like irony, sarcasm, tone and body language are either minimal or non-existent on the web without the use of smilies or special text. You know this. Know it now.

 

[SouLeSS]

Just like you OH ****

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Oh, ok thanks

No problem, before, they were this weird offshoot (if I remember correctly) of the race Douglock was affiliated with.

All they used to do was take over people, build towers to try and contact the other race, and then... get thwarted, as they didn't really do anything else.

This time, they're definitely doing more than that.
