THE FIRE AND THE (SERGEANT) FURY! Following up on the darkly brilliant ULTIMATE UNIVERSE: ONE YEAR IN…the Maker's Council's army of Nick Fury LMDs comes back into play! Secrets of the Fury program - and of H.A.N.D. - will be revealed!
The Ultimates #20 proves that Deniz Camp understands a truth many people forget: no single person can save the world. Vision's omniscience doesn't make him a solo savior–it makes him the node connecting thousands of resistors. Hammond sacrificed his identity, and a forgotten city came together for the cause. This is what revolution looks like: not one individual but thousands of people coming together to save the world. Read Full Review

Jim Hammond/Human Torch/Vision returns! A lot is covered in this issue. If you like "The Ultimates" I believe there is a good chance you will find this issue interesting.
Plot
It tells the origin story of Vision, who turns out to be a time-traveling android from 2025 who initially takes the identity of the Human Torch. Since then, he has infiltrated history as a spy, preparing his attack plan to aid the Ultimates, using Wasp as an ally.
The Maker Council created H.A.N.D. and several android versions of Nick Fury, which were eliminated by Vision, though they never discovered how.
The Ultimate version of James Rhodes appears and activates a giant Maker super suit, the ANTI WAR MACHINE, with which he eliminates more than 70 percent of H.A.N.D.'s Helicarriers.
The revelation of Vision and his secret attack plan makes him the perfect ally for the Ultimates.

I liked the idea of who the Vision is. The issue was a lot of fun. The ending was a little corny, but oh well. Still was fun.
