Best of all is that beyond being just a stock Bad Robot character, he also has all kinds of psychological aspects (a sort of Oedipus complex, for one) that makes him a rare character who is both interesting to follow, and thoroughly malicious.

Geeked in part because he's one of my favorite villains, but also curious what the storyline they will use or if they will use source material from previous Ultron battles...
Can't remember where I read it but there was some talk about Marvel moving to drawing their source material from upcoming and very recent plots in the comics as a way to not muck with classic stories but it also makes it easier for new fans to get into the comics and have a familiar footing of what's happening - push for increase in crossover fans and bump up the readership.
Just what I heard, though it was grounded in some inside information, but definitely not confirmed.
