Finally, the real "Age of Ultron".

Apparently the episode about Tony was moved to season 2.

Without giving up too much, there seem to be a contradiction about the Infinity Stones. The Comics I believe suggests they can only be used in the Universe from which they originated and The MCU appears to have changed that.

Didn’t Loki confirm the same thing?

The TVA exists in a "null zone" for lack of a better term. That doesn't mean it applies to the whole multiverse.

I didn't watch it yet but, because you muh boo, I just skipped to the end to check.

Not necessarily a 2-parter but this episode appears to lead into a bigger story.

Remember in Loki how, in order to enter the TVA you had to pass the "robot scanner"?

Holds more weight now.

Best episode of What If yet. This and the Dr. Strange episode run circles around all others.

This is the type of shite I thought we'd see the whole series.

I love how Thanos shows up and Ultron is like... "cool, thanks for the other stones"

Ultron was a scary dude, they did him major justice in this What If...? So, now that they have the virus, I wonder if one of the Alt-verse Visions helps finish off Ultron.

Possible spoiler but maybe not. Episode 7 ending.






























This Ultron shows up at the very end of episode 7 in front of Thor at the very end. The Watcher even says "wait what". Hope some of these link together and just just leave us hanging.

If Vision's head beam can do that, why didn't he just do the same thing in Infinity War?

He didn’t want to chance a fight because of the risk of losing the stone. He chose to die instead. But apparently he could have won.

They are also using the age ol' comic book "stronger for this but not for that" gimmick. Best thing I could see being explained it... Ultron is stronger than Vision, and a super powered Ultron with a Human body would be a multitude stronger than Vision, not just slightly.

Also by the time we would have seen Thanos coming to earth - Ultron is basically a killing machine, and wouldn't even think twice about "bizzt"

I mean, I guess he did use it in Civil War to cut a clean line through an air traffic control tower. But Thanos with the gauntlet shouldn't have been that easy to slice in half. Marvel didn't used to pull these kind of convenient tricks. They're slacking after Endgame.

Thanos literally didnt have a chance to use the gauntlet to block Ultrons beam.

Is it just me or do you guys think some of these will be Easter Eggs in the next phase as we enter the multi-verse?

I think it will be more than an Easter Egg. But yes.
