Ant-Man: 10 Ways It Can Link To The Avengers

4. The Vision

In the comics, Hank Pym created Ultron and Ultron in turn created the Vision, essentially making Pym the Vision€™s grandfather. There is a theory on a Pym/Ultron connection (more on that in a minute), but maybe Pym€™s expertise comes into play when creating the Vision. The Vision in the comics was built from the remains of Jim Hammond€™s synthetic body (it gets a bit more complex than that, but that€™s the gist of it). If that holds true in the movies, Stark and Banner may need some additional assistance in creating The Vision to combat Ultron. And if the previous theory of Hammond being active at some point in the past, perhaps working alongside with Pym€™s Ant-Man, proves to be correct, who would know how Hammond works better than Pym? If Pym plays some role, even if it€™s just his technology or previous research he did that Tony and Bruce use, that would help to tie Ant-Man even more firmly to the MCU, while also serving as a nice little nod to Pym€™s connection to Vision in the comics. For most viewers, they may not even get the significance. But for longtime Avengers fans, it could serve as a great Easter egg.
