Annie - how many times do I have to tell you - he didn't say "HULK SMASH FREDDIE PRINZE JR!"
And yes, its Ultron, thank you.

Did you notice what complete and utter wankers the rank and file soldiers serving as part of S.H.I.E.L.D are?
There's that moment where Tony Stark recharges his suit and a young boy standing nearby is grinning and giving him the thumbs-up. In one of the following panels, the soldiers who helped Stark get airbourne casually push the boy over.
I have also noticed that the SHIELD guys are not exactly sweetness and light. In Ultimate War they're very willing to gun down Storm simply because she is a mutant.

I enjoyed the running jokes like Hawkeye's very human inability to talk on the radio and fight at the same time, without getting injured. And creepy brother and sister duo - Quick Silver and Scarlet Witch's insistance that they saved the lives of other members of the team, even though from everyone elses perspective, it looks like they just sit around giggling all the time.
I actually wonder about that, and what's going on there. Setting aside the obvious hints of incest, do they really do anything?
As for the France joke, I am very pro-French, but I actually thought that joke was quite funny and very contemporary. People will look back on these issues and see them as a time capsule of the flavour of the times: obsession with terrorism as a replacement for confrontation with the Soviets, anti-France sentiment, a high degree of militarisation and high technology.
