Warning ! mollycoddler ahead forBatman # 126
In the latest issue of DC Comics’Batman , it ’s let out that the Dark Knight once built his own version ofUltron , mirroring the one Iron Man and Hulk created in the MCU . While it ’s not the first time Batman has built an AI gone rogue ( ex-wife : Brother Eye ) , thisnew automaton known as Failsafeis particularly interesting given its similarities to Marvel ’s Ultron . Likewise , the stage of closed book behind its creation is incredibly challenging seeing as how Batman ca n’t recall creating the golem seen attacking his family of vigilance man in this new issue .
begin with the previousBatman # 125 , writer Chip Zdarsky has join artist Jorge Jiménez for an all - unexampled era of the Caped Crusader . feature an onslaught of the city ’s wealthy as rate by Penguin , the consequence culminated with Tim Drake ’s Robin being shot and put in vital shape whilePenguin himself dying in the hospital , his last act control that the Dark Knight would be set up for his " murder " .

This brings things to the newBatman # 126and the surprisal energizing of Failsafe . Seemingly a automaton AI designed by Bruce himself , Failsafe was activated and loose from the depth of the Batcave . Brutally attacking Batman , the lethal golem follows the Dark Knight into the city after he ’s forced to fly . unco , Failsafe is more than adequate to of taking on the rest of the Bat - Family when they get for some much - needed backup . Keeping the robot meddlesome while Robin takes Batman back to the original Batcave , Failsafe even talks like Marvel ’s Ultron with favorable position , referring to the Dark Knight ’s house penis as primitives handle sticks who hide in caves .
Seemingly unstoppable , it does seem as though Failsafe ’s destination is to replace Batman and his fellow vigilantes in Gotham . Perhaps this was his original purpose make his name which has somehow been warped . This would mirror theMCU ’s Ultron who was build to supercede the Avengersand take it to the more homicidal extreme point of assay their deaths and replacing humanity with robots . However , the mystery remains as to why Failsafe has gone rogue , why he was trigger now , as well as why Batman ’s memories of build the automaton are fractured and practically nonexistent .
While the end of this unexampled return suggests that Batman ’s backup personality Zur - En - Arrh build Failsafe ( explaining why he ca n’t think back build the automaton ) , the fact stay that Failsafe is now a major threat to his family and Gotham as a whole . Now having entree to Batman ’s blanket mesh of micro - cave around the urban center , there ’s no telling whereBatman’sversion ofUltronwill rap next . Batman # 126is on sale now .
