4. Words With Ultron - Avengers #22

Ultron Unlimited sounds like a credit card, but it's actually a four-issue storyline from the Avengers comic series from 1998.

The maniacal mechanoid kidnaps Hank Pym and uses his brilliance to create an army of duplicates of himself. He does this to take over the nation of Slorenia, whilst also trying to convince a bunch of heroes that they're his "family".

Good luck with that.

In issue 22, Earth's mightiest heroes must do battle with a legion of Ultron clones as Vision confronts the real thing. In the end, Pym is able to destroy this robotic evil... well, for about as long as anything stays destroyed in comic-land.

One amazing moment from the issue comes when a group of good guys confront their robotic nemesis. Captain America, Black Panther, Iron Man, and Firestar are all there. Oh, and there's also a half-shirtless Thor.

Easy, tiger.

Not only does this panel from George PĂ©rez show how hard the Avengers have fought to reach Ultron Prime, but it also shows how far they're willing to go to finish him off.

Also, Thor's line of "Ultron. We would have words with thee" is just superb.
