Vin Diesel teased that he was in talks with Marvel for something. Speculations run wild that he was either going to be a baddie, or voice Ultron or become The Vision for the next Avengers movie, Avengers: Age of Ultron. However there's a new rumor swirling.
The new rumor suggests that Diesel is in talks with Disney/Marvel to lend his voice to the Tree Alien Warrior GROOT for next year's GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY.

Avengers A.I. # 1 Review
Reviewing Avengers A.I. # 1 by Sam Humphries and Andre Lima Araujo for Marvel Comics.
Soooooo. another Avengers book eh. Well color me delighted with this one. It actually spins from the ending of Age of Ultron #10 and #10AI (which was a retrofitted history lesson about Hank Pym). And though I failed to review 10AI I can certainly say that I loved that one.
In this issue, the same madcap capers and A.I. hijinks that Pym is very much used to is still present. In fact it triples during the middle and if the cover (and ending) is any indicator, it's going to quadruple next issue. So what's the lowdown in this book. SHIELD drones go missing Hank Pym is the primary suspect. He assembles a new team of 'Avengers' to combat this threat specifically. He includes Runaways member Victor Mancha, a newly rebooted Vision and a refurbished Doombot as his main team.
On Hank Pym: I love the current Hank Pym. We sort of admit that he's crazy and that it's usually good crazy. We also know that he's partly responsible for the evolution of the anti-ultron virus and it's also his goal to eradicate that task. I love that he's kooky and brash and that he's decided to forgo using any alias.
On the Avengers roster for A.I.: The team is a nice pairing.We have Victor Mancha working together with his 'brother' Vision or Vizh (which I prefer to calling him because it's so ghetto). They work well and complement each other a hundred percent. Plus I like how they're not fighting unlike other comic book stories where when one brother shows up, you can bet that the next issue would be a dragged out, 22 page fight. This one is better and simpler. And they get along.
On Doombot: Damn, Doombot was the almost star of this issue. From belittling his 'teammates' to showing the drones who's boss, this version of the Doombot spells badass with a capital letter B.
Verdict: 10/10

AGE OF ULTRON # 3 SPOILERS
Wow! Twist ending that was. Here's some major spoilers for Age of Ultron # 3 by Brian Michael Bendis and Bryan Hitch.
In the third issue for the Age of Ultron, the heroes have started their move to learn more about Ultron and hopefully gain a foothold over their robotic enemy. During the discussion of what to do, the collected heroes list down some of the more powerful heroes who have fallen during Ultron's blitzkrieg attack...
We also find out what the plan is, which will revolve on Luke Cage and She-Hulk...
The heroes plan would be to 'trade-off' She-Hulk to Ultron for additional information and intel. This of course would be done with the help of Cage who also revealed that Jessica Jones Cage and their baby Danielle has also been casualties of Ultron's attack. Meanwhile in Chicago, we find out that Taskmaster, Black Panther and the Red Hulk have teamed up to get more intel about Ultron's cyborg army.
Rulk attacks a lone cybory and beheads said cyborg with T'Challa hoping to skim off data from the severed head. The plan runs afoul and Rulk is forced to fight dozens of Ultrons covering the escape of Taskmaster and Black Panther.
Too bad for T'Challa as he slips and dies during the escape.
Back in New York, Luke enters Ultron's citadel and finds out who's really running things and its none other than their teammate the Vision...
Looks nasty.
