Vision #1
This collection presents the first six issues of Tom King and Gabriel Hernandez Walta's acclaimed 2016 Vision series, a dark and introspective take on the android Avenger. It follows the Vision as he attempts to build a normal family life in suburban Virginia with a wife and children of his own creation, only to find that their artificial humanity leads to tragic and unsettling consequences. The story is a standalone, character-driven exploration of identity, emotion, and the cost of trying to be something you're not.
In Vision #1, Tom King and Gabriel Hernández Walta launch a haunting, character-driven story as Vision struggles to protect his family from a threat he can’t fully grasp. When Virginia claims the Grim Reaper attacked their home and fled, Vision must navigate the fragile line between justice and fear—intervening at school to shield their son Vin, while a chilling video threatens to unravel everything. Mike Del Mundo’s cover captures the eerie tension of a father trying to hold his family together in a world where the past is never truly buried.
In "Visions of the Future," Vision and his family—Virginia, Vin, Viv, George, and Nora—settle into a quiet life in the Washington, DC, suburbs, trying to build something ordinary. When the Grim Reaper strikes while Vision is away, Virginia steps in with unexpected resolve, facing the threat head-on. The arrival of Captain America [Sam Wilson] and even a surprising cameo from Barack Obama add layers of tension and legacy to a story where family, identity, and the future collide.
In a quiet moment strained by secrets, Vision grapples with a family fractured by lies, as Virginia claims the Grim Reaper attacked them—only to later receive a chilling video that suggests her own hands were involved. With Vin’s escalating anger and a school principal under pressure, Vision must navigate the thin line between protection and control, while the truth of what really happened begins to slip through the cracks.
In "In and Out," the Vision navigates the fragile balance between duty and desire as he takes a bold step to bring Viv back to consciousness, while Virginia struggles to find her place in the quiet rhythms of suburban life. Meanwhile, Agatha Harkness pushes further into the unknown, driven by a haunting glimpse of a future she can’t yet understand.
In "Balls in the Air," the Vision finds herself entangled in a tense confrontation when she learns the truth behind a blackmail scheme tied to the father of a classmate. As the situation spirals, a desperate act of violence unfolds—one that reveals the fragile line between fear, guilt, and consequence.
In "The Villainy You Teach Me," the Vision finds himself under suspicion for the murder of Chris Kinsky, grilled by Detective Lin as he confronts the weight of his past actions. As the interrogation unfolds, his memories drift to the many times he’s saved the world with the Avengers—moments that now feel increasingly uncertain, even dangerous.
In "P vs. NP," the Vision grapples with a moral quandary when a dog’s accidental discovery of the Grim Reaper’s corpse leads to a shocking revelation. Forced to confront the consequences of his actions, he makes a bold choice to preserve the dog’s consciousness by transferring its mind into an android body, deepening the mystery of what it means to be alive. Meanwhile, Agatha Harkness warns a gathering of heroes that the Vision’s path may threaten the very world he seeks to protect.
