Captain Video and one of his unnamed droogs have gone to visit an old scientist pal of his, but something's
not quite right when he arrives...
Well, it doesn't take too long to reveal that
Makino is actually...
Well, Cap V's plane is smashed, so it takes him a few days to reach civilization. Bad things have been happening in his absence...
Indeed,
Ultron Makino has kidnapped another scientist, and is putting him through an evil version of
Jeopardy:
What a dick.
Makino even attacks the United Nations to get his hands on more human eggheads to taunt and destroy. Man, why couldn't anyone point him towards those
Big Bang Theory clowns?!?
Nice alliteration!
Anyway, Video has a plan:
What?
And so comes the greatest intellectual contest in pay-per-view history!!
Ooh, I can't wait, I can't wait--what's the question??
Huh?
Well, I guess he wasn't so smart, after all!
Wait--he doesn't understand feelings, but he has an ego that compels him to commit suicide?!?
So, anyway, that's how
Avengers: Age of Ultron should have ended.
Black Widow could ask Ultron, "
What is the sound of one hand clapping?" Or
Stark could ask, "
Describe the feeling of a man drinking a liter of expensive scotch!" Or...
