Most not too long ago, the Shopper hinted at desirous to make Imaginative and prescient extra ‘actual,’ though what precisely that meant stays elusive for now. The Shopper additionally doesn’t appear to be Ultron or Jocasta—each fashionable theories early on—and it has already been confirmed that the Shopper isn’t Billy Maximoff.
Working parallel to this query is the extra refined , a.okay.a. Human Torch, who was the primary synthezoid. It’s been unclear how important a task this character would play, particularly because the episodes have gone on, however a brand new concept, shared by Spider Sapiens on X, means that not solely will Jim Hammond make an look but in addition that he might be the Shopper himself.

Jim Hammond Might Be the Shopper…And Planning to Take Over Imaginative and prescient’s Physique

What’s extra, there’s a Marvel Comics connection right here, as within the comics, Ultron used Hammond’s physique as a baseline for Imaginative and prescient.
As this concept additionally mentions, the episode title being “Immolation” may moreover trace that that is the story to return, because the phrase means to kill, destroy, or sacrifice, typically by fireplace.
