Hank Pym has gathered several of earth's most genius scientists to solve the problem at hand: how best to protect the world from evil that would doom it in its entirety? They cannot be everywhere at once, but perhaps an artificial intelligence system could, a suit of armor around the world. It is sadly only a matter of time before it gets out of hand. Once again, the avengers must come together to stop Ultron, the being that came from this idea, who is now hellbent on gaining full control over the planet, to protect it. Not only that, but seeing the threat that comes from beyond, Ultron has launched attacks on several extraterrestrial targets.
