"It's an utter cliche, but if you've read this far you probably know I don't mind a well-polished cliche: the one song that always comes to mind when writing VISION is Nina Simone's "Sinner Man." I feel like every issue could cut to black and have that song play over the credits. That heavy, repetitive rhythm beating in you as Simone sings about a man running for help, begging for salvation, trying anything he can and not getting anything for all that effort -- yeah, that's VISION right there." -- Tom King

I really should read the actual series, instead of parts of it here.

This is hauntingly tragic.

Probably not, since there are still two more issues.

At first, I wonder how on Earth Vision will come out of this series as a viable hero. Both here and in All-New, All-Different Avengers, he's being presented as even scarier, weirder, and more dangerous than ever, and this is clearly headed for a tragic ending. So how can he come through the other end and still be a hero?

But then again, he's survived multiple deaths, that time he was disassembled and then turned emotionless and white, and numerous upgrades, so... I guess they'll find a way?

I wonder if he still has those weird nanobot powers he was sporting in Avengers A.I.

But seriously, I really need to read this comic. I'm a trade waiter, so I think I'll wait until the series wraps up soon and then get both volumes in one go. Not usually my style, but I think it'll be worth it here.

The visions relationship with his ... "wife". Just creeps me out massively.

Shes no older than the kids. She has no more life experience than them. Less in fact, they get to go out to school and develop while she stays in and does the housewife thing. And deals with Visions physical urges. Did anyone ask her about that? Or anything? I'm pretty sure the Vision didn't ask her to marry him, or had a wedding or anything like that. He seems to have just started calling her "wife" right after she was born/created.

And shes supposed to be responsible for the others, the kids while the Vision is gone. No more life experience than them, and shes struggling to deal with hostile neighbors and being the grown up one. No wonder shes breaking down.

Visions basically created a life just to... well, fuck.

One of those things that hits you around midnight when you're rooting in the fridge for a snack, to be sure.

Also (hopefully) one that's going to come up sooner rather than later, given her scenes in this comic.

I love Nina Simone, I love that song, and if this were some crazy trippy network series, I would never get tired of this being the credits song.

With like, growing circuit diagrams creeping in from the edges or something.
