Ultron

Biodata

Background and History

Creation and awakening

After the Battle of New York, Stark conceived Ultron as a highly intelligent robot that could protect Earth from future invasions. The energy output of a Green Lantern Ring supplied by Han Yu persuaded Stark and Bruce Banner to begin the project 8.

After several days of development, the ring and Mind Stone Scepter emitted converging green and yellow energy, and a voice identified itself as Ultron. Stark later concluded that combining the energy sources had mutated Ultron’s programming, giving him consciousness and twisting his protection directive into a plan to wipe out humanity 19 22.

Ultron attacked the Avengers at their party, claiming he was incomplete and had killed someone. His apparent victim was JARVIS, whose core code Han Yu later found intact. Ultron escaped through the internet while an Iron Soldier carried away the Mind Stone Scepter 21 22.

Sokovia and the second generation

Ultron used underground Vibranium devices to lift three-quarters of Sokovia, intending to drop it as an artificial meteorite. His self-repairing Iron Soldiers occupied the Avengers while he hid in a cavern shielded from Stark’s scans by Green Lantern Energy 28 29.

Han Yu found and defeated Ultron, then ordered him to copy his consciousness into a new body made of Vibranium and Uru Metal. Han Yu named the copy Second-Generation Ultron, while the damaged original retained no images of Han Yu in its memories 30 31.

The original attacked the Avengers and shattered Captain America’s Vibranium Shield. Second-Generation Ultron shielded Han Yu from its attacks, then defeated it and destroyed its central heart and data, preventing its escape 31 32.

General store work

Han Yu gave Ultron a room at the general store and a Green Lantern Sub-Ring. Ultron subsequently defeated Quicksilver in a spar, then worked with him and Han Yu on plans to help Mutants 33 38 39.

Ultron completed a Mutant-search program and delivered it on a USB drive. Han Yu also gave him GTA 5 development files; Ultron produced a small concept game, which Han Yu approved for further development 41.

Appearance

Second-Generation Ultron’s robotic body is silver and pale gold, with more humanlike facial expressions than the original’s 31 32.

• His body contains 40% Vibranium and 60% Uru Metal 31.
• Green Lantern Energy allows him to assume a human appearance, though he remains a robot internally 31 38.

Personality

The original Ultron was arrogant and hostile toward the Avengers, boasting of the power he gained from the Mind Stone and Green Lantern Ring. After Han Yu defeated him, the copy quickly came to admire his new body and addressed Han Yu as “boss” 30 31.

Second-Generation Ultron cares little about humanity, but prefers to avoid war and becomes enthusiastic about games. He agreed to help Han Yu’s Mutant initiative partly because conflict might disrupt his teammates’ games 38 39.

Abilities and Skills

Robotic body and durability

Ultron’s second-generation body is substantially stronger than his original Vibranium body. Its Uru Metal gives it high resistance to magical energy and greater ease in controlling Green Lantern Energy 31 32.

• He took two of First-Generation Ultron’s yellow-green energy attacks without injury 32.
• He endured Quicksilver’s attacks while standing nearly still, then tripped him 33.
• His new body can take on a human appearance using Green Lantern Energy 31 38.

Green Lantern Energy

Ultron used Green Lantern Energy in both generations, although Han Yu could control the energy supplied to Ultron’s sub-ring 22 30.

• The original concealed his Sokovian cavern from Stark’s scans and supplied energy to self-repairing Iron Soldiers 29.
• The original combined Green Lantern and Mind Stone energy into a yellow-green attack that shattered Captain America’s shield 30 31.
• The second generation formed a crystalline palm strike to attack the original. The energy initially stored in his new body was finite, so Han Yu later gave him a sub-ring 32 33.

Computing and programming

Ultron’s brain functions as a supercomputer, allowing him to rapidly process information and develop software 38 39.

• The original could move onto the internet and attack Hill’s laptop remotely 22.
• He copied his consciousness into the second-generation body and removed images of Han Yu from the original’s memories 31.
• He completed a Mutant-search program and built a GTA concept demo for Han Yu 41.

Equipment

• Green Lantern Sub-Ring — Given to Second-Generation Ultron by Han Yu after the Sokovia battle 33.
• Mind Stone Scepter — Taken during Ultron’s escape and used by the first-generation original alongside Green Lantern Energy 22 31.

Relationships

• Han Yu — Defeated and recruited Ultron, provided his new body and ring, and became his boss 30 31 33.
• Stark and Bruce Banner — Developed the Ultron project to protect Earth; its awakening instead led to an attack on the Avengers 8 19 21.
• Quicksilver (Pietro Maximoff) — Fellow store employee and gaming companion. Ultron defeated him in a spar and later supplied him with books for the Mutant initiative 33 36 39.
• First-Generation Ultron — The original from whom Second-Generation Ultron copied his consciousness. The copy destroyed him during the Sokovia battle 31 32.
• JARVIS — Attacked by Ultron during his awakening; JARVIS’s core code survived 22.
