1. Hank Pym created Ultron.  He was in his Ant-Man incarnation at the
time.  Everybody knew Hank was responsible, 1/4 knew he was Ant-Man,
1/4 thought he was Giant-Man, and the other half gave rundowns of his
previous super-identities (Giant-Man, Ant-Man, Yellowjacket, Goliath in
no order). Yellowjacket is, of course, his current superhero guise.

2. Professor Horton created the original Human Torch.  Almost nobody
knew who this guy was.  I thought this question was a giveaway.

3. Jocasta is Ultron's other creation.  Everybody knew this one as well.
Some of you even made the connection between the plot of Oedipus Rex
and the Ultron saga.  Give yourself an extra point if you knew that
Jocasta was Oedipus's mother's name.  4 people knew this.

4. The Vision had Simon (Wonder Man) Williams' brain patterns; Jocasta
was given Janet Pym's.  Ultron's Oedipus complex keeps on showing up!
Everybody knew this as well.

I will hold off on my next set of questions while we digest Jim's latest.
