"We live in a world of cowards. We live in a world full of small minds who are afraid. We are ruled by those who refuse to risk anything of their own. Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark

Vespa is Italian for Wasp, which is probably why Jan is such a fan of the armor.
Gotta give a chef's kiss* to this impeccable issue.
Flawlessly crafted by all involved. Slott is so good at these one-and-done style issues that tell a complete story while nudging along the ongoing subplots.
And damn, Schiti's art is just so freaking GOOD - the new armor that Tony sports here is a keeper and Janet has never looked lovelier.
While it may have been a bit of a wait for this issue, it was absolutely worth it.
Can't wait to see where Slott takes Tony and Janet as a couple.

I loved this issue, Jan was just a extra cherry on top on this sundae but I do think the cast is getting way too big and Arno is coming to already a jampacked cast.
Going to pick it up today! Cant wait!
This issue was great. Tony and Jan have great chemistry, and this book continues to be a lot of fun.

The book is "fun", but this was another down issue for me. I think I like the odd numbered issues much better so far; can't wait for issue #5.
Years before Kal-El ever landed from Space; tales were told of the ultimate warrior/hero; Conan the Barbarian!
I know that Pym and Janet had a great love for one another and it has since moved on. Janet loves Pym and so does Tony. I would love to see them go and try to help Hank. I would really love it. They are The Avengers who take care if their own. I mean Tony has knowledge of AI's(not on Ultrons level), but still and Janet will be there for the big emotional push. Someone has to help Pym?!?!

Y'know I feel the need to express more disappointment with Ultron-Pym now. If Hank is currently in the soul gem and is more or less separated from Ultron, this basically robs us of an arc for Iron man.
Janet comes into Tony's life again and Jocasta by proxy shares some of these feelings. Then consider that Hank has those feelings for Jan and Ultron built Jocasta to be his bride.
Meaning;
Jocasta could try to hook up with Tony
Tony trying to be with Janet
Hank trying to return to Janet
And Ultron trying to figure out the difference between Janet and Jocasta and what separates him from Pym.
We could potentially have gotten a love triangle and rivalry out of Pym and Stark competing for Janet all the while Jocasta is wrestling with her built in connection to Ultron and whatever she may feel for Tony. Combine that with how robots in the MU are rapidly approaching human levels and we have the opportunity to say something profound about love and or the human condition. And even worse it robs us of the heroic Ultron from his return in Uncanny Avengers. That is to say that we could've gotten Hank and Ultron grappling with their combined form and potentially lay the seeds for separating them. Ultron-Pym is basically an evil Iron man who can't not be the Iron man, so having Tony their basically ticks all the wrong buttons on Ultron and boy howdy did we get screwed. Tony was even basically rebooted asking the question of him being a human machine and how much of him is still Tony and juxtaposed with Hank this could've really led to something.
Do an arc and lay the ground work for Hank and Ultron's combined mindset and when and if it should be separated. Say something about Tony and Janet's relationship warts and all. I know I can't say anything to Slott about this considering it's likely out of his hands, but man do I feel like we could get something bigger than "ULTRON IS BACK AND AVENGERS NEED TO FIGHT HIM".
Hell, Pym-tron spin-off book connecting it back E-scape and Jocasta and Janet's connection to Tony with an emphasis on the A.I and their rights. This is well in the making Marvel!
