Have to admit, didn't expect steampunk Hank Pym to appear here out of all the tie-ins.

Is this the first time people have ever been *happy* to see a Hank Pym show up?

At first, I was like: "Vision? The original Human Torch? Wonder Man? Of course! It makes sense. Two androids and an invulnerable steel-hard ionic energy man. These guys cannot be zombified." But now, I just realised there's something more to it. I.E:

Hank Pym built Ultron.
Ultron built Vision.
Vision was built out of Simon's mind + The Human Torch's body.

This is just one big happy (?) family reunion.

Ah the Pym family tree. Somehow it's arguably more fucked up than the Summers one, depending on how far you want to go on its branches.

And the Pym tree intersects the Maximoff tree, adding to the complications. What does the Summers tree have next to that?

Alternate reality/timeline offspring. But then the Pym/Maximoff tree hits back with reincarnated offspring. Which...pretty much destroys the purpose of a family tree but we don't talk about that.

Except both Vision and Simon were zombified at some point of Marvel Zombies.

I think Vision was also immune for one of the minis, but not in the other ones. Continuity, schmontinuity, right?

These are alternate versions of them, of course. Not the Zombies versions.

In Marvel Zombies #2 or #3, they showed that zombie Kingpin had his limbs removed and hooked up to their radio/radar thing, but clearly not zombified.

And they kept him compliant by having zombified Wanda convince him to help them. A heavily decaying and obviously zombie-evil Wanda.

I assume you mean zombie Vision, not zombie Kingpin... though that's a rather disturbing mental image,

It really does remain disturbing no matter who is with who. Though yeah, sorry about my phrasing. I meant that Vision wasn't 'zombified', but he was wrecked up with his limbs removed and hooked up to a radar thing. And he's stuck in a either an incredible state of denial, or he's partially lobotomized, because he still has the hots for zombie-Wanda and the entire thing is...weird, or pathetic.

In I think Marvel Zombies #2 or #3, can't remember, they showed that Vision wasn't zombified but they removed his limbs and hooked him up to some radar/radio thing.

And they pacified him using a zombified Wanda. A heavily decaying Wanda. Love's...blind?

Blind, deaf, anosmic, you name it.

He might be another Vision.

Since they're dumping people from other baronies of Battleworld into zombieland, he might be a Vision from a different reality entirely. Or Ultron made a back up copy.

Almost certainly. IIRC the Marvel Zombies Vision didn't have the waist... uh, band thingie, like this more classic version does. I was just commenting on the suggested immunity on the zombie plague.

I like to believe editorial realized zombifying a "synthoid" was silly.

Is it any sillier than zombifying a flaming skeleton, or an artificial intelligence, though?

No, I can't say that it is.

Well, in any case, Battleworld means everything is now canon, no matter how it contradicts itself.

So if Doom's in charge of everything, why did he bring in the Zombies and Ultrons (and Annhilus)? What's his rationale for keeping them around?

(I know Marvel's reasoning, but I'd like to know Doom's reasoning.)

What better way to keep the populace happy that Doom's there to keep all these horrible threats away?

To have scary things on the other side of a wall, an important fantasy trope lately.

"Secret Wars"? Just call it "Marvel's DC."

Christina, Peter Rasputin and Kate Pryde's daughter from Days of the Future Past, seems to be able to transform into Platinum from the Metal Men.

The patwork world? Green Lantern's Oa when the Old Timer got crazy.

Jim Rhodes? He is now Steel, along with the chrome armor, the visible face and the hammer.

Crossbones and Bucky have their own Suicide Squad composed of criminals sporting electronic collars to keep them in check.

Ok, the Squadron Supreme and/or Sinister has always been the Justice League, so it's a given.
