I did like his Mighty Avengers run, more so than his Post Civil War New Avengers at any rate. And his Ultron was beastly; only beaten through plot device (like most of the times he's been beaten, come to think of it) and the story and characterization was pretty good.
I give Bendis a lot of shit - rightfully so, imo - but I do give him credit when he does well. If his event is helmed solely by Bendis and keeps things Avengers focused instead of trying to drag the entire Marvel U into it, this event will be halfway decent hopefully. And Ultron will likely be handled pretty well itself.
Yeah, this event needs to stay self-contained, no doubt about it. If it starts venturing outside the Avengers books, it will turn into [another] contrived mess that no one cares about.
Even though they currently have a huge event transpiring, Marvel only had 3 books in the top 10 last month, while DC had 7--and that has been the norm lately. Marvel needs to understand that company-spanning 'epic events' are good in moderation, but they lose their luster when they're pumped out as fast as possible, one after the other. Give it a rest. Let characters/plots evolve naturally.

1.Ultron shows up and is beating marvel earths superheroes, the heros despereatly seek out the xmen with there new upgrade and show up and destroy ultron
^ Ultron War is going to happen. That much is confirmed from the comics themselves outright saying "Soon: Ultron War!" or the various interviews with creators. The majority of fans likewise believed the "This is War" teasers hinted at the wouldbe Ultron War arc. It was a good marketing attempt by Marvel though. Got myself and many others by surprise.
Still, Punisher vs. the Avengers is a horrible idea.
