Avengers: Age of Ultron

Marvel has revealed the title for the sequel to Avengers:


This is the same title as a recently concluded comic series but word is it will not be based on that story, which is just as well as it involves lots of time travel and lot of characters. But it will involve Ultron. Who's Ultron?
