You keep answering every question that pops up into my head without my having to ask it and it's freaking me out, man. I was totally thinking the scattering will be great as plots for people- 'oh no where's my friends!'- but couldn't figure out A) why they would scatter and B) how some of them would even get into space in the first place. So thank you!
Of the two I really dig crazy ultron spaceship because it's more definite no idea where everybody's going to end up.
And the twelve hour countdown thing is great because I haven't read the comics and wasn't sure how to go about it (other than vague 'scientists report a strange fluctuation in blah blah blah' on the news).
Pretty much all of this is awesome is what I'm saying.
