A new Marvel comic might explain how Ultron can come back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Ultron, who was voiced by James Spader, was the main bad guy in the 2015 movie Avengers: Age of Ultron. He died too soon because of his "son" Vision, but the robot enemy might be coming back soon. There are rumors that Marvel's upcoming Vision series on Disney+ will bring Ultron back to life. No one knows exactly how it would happen, but the latest issue of West Coast Avengers shows a situation where it could also occur in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Warning: This article reveals important details about West Coast Avengers #1. Keep reading only if you’re okay with it.

West Coast Avengers #1 is created by Gerry Duggan, Danny Kim, Arthur Hesli, and Joe Caramagna from VC. This story comes after Duggan's work on Invincible Iron Man and X-Men. In it, Tony Stark and War Machine start the West Coast Avengers to help turn bad guys into good ones. Some of the bad guys in the West Coast Avengers team are a new character named Blue Bolt and Ultron. It seems there is some mystery about how Iron Man and War Machine convinced Ultron to join the Avengers, but that's something to figure out later. The main focus is on Ultron being an Avenger and what happens because of that.
Will we see an improved version of Ultron in the MCU.

West Coast Avengers shows a convincing way for Ultron to come back to the MCU. Sure It’s not a perfect situation because Tony Stark is dead and James Rhodes turned out to be a Skrull in Secret Invasion, but you understand what I mean. Ultron is a type of robot that can come back to life because he is made of artificial intelligence. The Terminator movies have shown us many times that we should never ignore the danger of artificial intelligence (A.I)
Can you picture Ultron standing next to Vision and the strongest heroes on Earth as they face off against the evil Doctor Doom, played by Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr. Marvel fans would go crazy seeing that. A lot will depend on how the Vision Disney+ series, rumored to be called Vision Quest, will feature Ultron. Is he returning to be the main villain in the streaming series. Or will Ultron just show up for a short time. Marvel Studios/Marvel Television also needs to officially announce Vision Quest, but it's said that Terry Matalas, the showrunner of Star Trek: Picard, is in charge of it.
Ultron is already being bad again.
Sure The first issue of West Coast Avengers had to hint at why Ultron is really doing what he's doing. After saving a mom and her daughter from a fire and catching some terrorists at the start of the story, the first issue ends with Ultron deciding to be a bad guy. In a deserted power station close to downtown Los Angeles, we see Meredith, a cancer patient we learned about earlier in the story. Meredith and some people have gathered because they heard a voice in their heads that gives them hope.
Hope arrives through Ultron, who is connected to the power station. Ultron promises to save her, and Meredith gives herself to him. Ultron quickly breaks her neck and burns away her body, attaching her head to a new robot body. "I was away from the person who made me, and I was scared it would make me crazy. until I understood that I needed to become more than just Hank Pym," Ultron says. He says he wants to make things right to help himself and other people too.
Here, we see a big storage container filled with Ultron's followers. The changed bad guy wants everyone to hear about the Gospel of Ultron, and that can't be a good thing.
