The Real Reason Tony Stark Had To Die

Did Tony Stark's ultimate sacrifice save not just our universe but the entire Multiverse? It is possible today. I'm looking at exactly why Tony's disappearance may have been a good thing in the long run and how it potentially protected us from an evil version of Tony Stark. The Line Stay until the end because it will be fun. Tony Stark's epic sacrifice effectively saved our universe. Thanos was two seconds away from breaking everything and rebuilding the universe in his own image, but Iron Man swooped in, snatched the stones, and delivered his final I. I'm Iron Man's line before establishing himself as the greatest hero in the universe, but Now that we begin to explore beyond our universe and discuss the sacred timeline and prevent a major multiversal war, the question is: was Iron Man always supposed to die here?

Her sacrifice of him and death of him finally? Preventing something much worse in the future, well, that's what I'm discussing today. Doctor Strange said that of the 14 million variations of him, this was the only one that actually won, but what if there were more than that? What if this was a The specific future that Doctor Strange saw where all is well was the only one where Thanos was defeated but also where Tony Stark died while he did it. The question is why Tony Stark had to die and look, I'm not naive, I'm sure the MCU was not thinking this long term when it comes to this particular moment, but I think there's a fun way to connect the points by saying that Tony's death prevented his world from being destroyed in a multiversal war and that's saying that if Tony had lived past the end of the game, then our Earth would not have survived a multiversal incursion thanks to Tony's actions. , since we would ultimately become the bad guys.

Yeah, I'm saying that if Tony was alive after the end of the game, he would have been the ultimate big bad of the Multiverse Saga and before you launch your screen with rotten fruit, let's break this down a bit and see if it makes sense. Look what we know about Tony Stark. His heart is usually in the right place, but he makes terrible decisions when he's paranoid or guilty, or both. He resists people who try. telling him what to do and his huge ego has led to some major conflicts, those aren't all great traits, sure he's a hero and he's incredibly charismatic and charming, but all he

real

ly does is mask his large flock of characters.

I'm just not. The hero type looks at how he acted after the first Avengers movie. Once the Earth was threatened by a greater threat, he immediately became super paranoid and worried about the destruction of the Earth, even going so far as to try to build armor around the world, which led directly to Ultron and then in Civil War, he felt so guilty about Ultron that he was willing to support the Sokovia Accords and in the end he was so emotional in his feelings that he tried to eliminate Bucky, effectively destroying his relationship with Steve Rogers and breaking up the relationship.

Avengers, then comes Infinity War and Earth Sim just isn't ready for Thanos, leading to five years of horror. Take all of that into consideration and I think we can accurately assume that if a multiversal war started to occur and incursions started to threaten our

real

ity, then Tony would overcorrect and do whatever it took to protect our universe, even if it meant destroying Another Universe. In the comics, while Tony is part of the Illuminati, the group has the mentality of whether this is our Earth or an alternate reality. Earth, then they have to choose our Earth for the greater good and while it is a difficult decision to make and not without merit, it spits in the face of the mcu's philosophy of its heroes existing only in black and white without true Shadows of Flock.

As Infinity War stressed, heroes don't trade lives, so I think if Tony had survived at the end of the game, he would have followed a dark path that would have led him to become the ultimate villain and that's why he had to leave, but let's talk . Also, Tony would have really turned evil after the end of the game. I mean, probably not, but that idea is not without comedic merit. There are plenty of examples in the comics that show Tony falling down a rabbit hole of bad ideas only to finally get it wrong. decisions or alternate universe versions of Tony Stark who have become straight up bad guys like Superior Iron Man is an alternate version of Tony Stark without the morals of Tony from our universe, who basically wants to control the world, he is a version blinded by the ego and ambition. and makes him a very dangerous opponent.

I used to think that Superior Iron Man should be part of this ongoing Multiverse Saga and have a different Universe where Iron Man is the main villain and is adamant about destroying our world to protect his. They even thought they could have tied that into the existing MCU by having Superior Iron Man come from Earth 838, which is the alternate reality that appeared in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. I mean, imagine if that world had an Iron Man to be a part of. of that Illuminati group, but he simply wasn't there that day and then returned to find literally all of them horribly destroyed by a threat from our universe that would make anyone look at Earth 616 and distrust us, and while that could still happen I think if our Tony had survived at the end of the game, he could have easily followed the same path.

I refer to his final action for a second. Tony started out in the MCU as an arms dealer who dealt in weapons of mass destruction who suddenly changed his mind. using his weapons to kill people and he wanted to do good for the world and become a hero and that's a great overall arc that Tony followed from his first movie, but then at the end of the game how did he defeat Thanos and the army of him? He used a weapon of mass destruction. To eliminate the evil threat as insurance, Thanos' army presented themselves as mindless aliens but they were still alive.

You're telling me that at that moment Tony couldn't think of any better solution than to kill them all. I'm just saying that's weird. after watching No Way Home whose main character was so anti-death that it makes Tony's actions stand out especially when you compare it to where Tony's journey started so I say if Tony survived after taking out Tony everyone, that would have started. setback where he would have been more fine with eliminating threats that promised to harm our world again. I don't think Tony would have become a whole person like Superior Iron Man or other alternate versions of himself like Iron Maniac who comes from a world where the death of Stark's friend at the hands of the Skrulls turned him into a twisted evil monster or even on the evil Emperor Stark, who is basically a fusion between Doctor Doom and Iron Man that causes a lot of problems, but leave that for a second.

More on that in a minute, but what I'm trying to say here is that while our Tony wouldn't have gone completely evil, I think he would have been a great ultimate multiversal war villain if he now realized that it's okay to take Delete enemies that threaten our universe instead of trying to find an alternative solution, but now that Tony is out of the picture, our world is safe because I think the universe likes to correct itself and that's where Dr. comes in. Doom. I've been saying for a while now that I think Dr. Doom would be the perfect villain for the MCU not only because he's incredibly amazing, complex, and dangerous with a great backstory, but also because he represents an evil version of Tony Stark. .

Tony Stark amplified tenfold is an egomaniacal tech Genius who builds fancy suits and weapons. Dr. Doom is an egomaniacal tech genius who builds fancy suits and weapons. He sees two peas in a pod, but Doom goes a little further than Tony not only by being incredibly ruthless and craving total domination. and absolute power, but also Doom embraces a mystical side to things that Tony just didn't bother with. Doom is really like the best and worst parts of Iron Man and Doctor Strange, making him an incredibly dangerous and even easy bad guy for the MCU. To just say, hey, this guy is like an evil Tony Stark.

I think he has a chance to tie Victor Von Doom's introduction to Iron Man's sacrifice, so maybe in all the Dr. Strange futures he saw, they all ended with the total destruction of our universe. and in the hands of Thanos or Tony Stark, he chose the only option that would eliminate both threats completely, but I've always found in these types of stories that the Universe always has a way of correcting itself, time is a flat circle or something and so What needs to happen will find a way to potentially happen with even worse results by taking Tony Stark off the board.

Doctor Strange inadvertently left the door open for an even worse version of Tony Stark to rise up and take on the role of destroyer of the universe and that's where Dr. Doom comes in. Sometimes I feel like the MCU takes the safer route with their interconnectivity and when Doom is introduced I think there's a chance they'll just say yeah Doom was in it the whole time and planned his moves oh you haven't heard . from lavaria, everyone knows levaria and that generally simplifies things, but I think a better idea would be to say that Doom was not in power before the snap and was only able to take control of the country after half of They all disappeared, I think. that's the best way to handle the character and allows him to become a major threat thanks to the actions of Infinity War and the endgame, so now that Tony Stark is not around, Doom can be the one to start a major multiversal war , maybe.

Now he will be a dictator who rules his country and wants more power because he has lived his life without being in charge and was only recently able to take control. He desperately wants to keep that power and not let anything take it away from him, so when the Multiverse starts to become more known and we get to the point where other Earths threaten to destroy ours. Doom will be the greatest advocate for destroying other threats before they destroy us. Yes, he's definitely a bad guy, but also in his own twisted way. He simply doesn't want to see our Earth destroyed and his only major flaw is that he is willing to destroy other universes instead of finding alternative solutions.

I mean, Doom is so egomaniacal that one could imagine the thinking of other Doctor Dooms that exist in the world. The multiverse would irritate him, our Doctor Doom would want to prove that he is, without a doubt, the only Doom worth saving and that will lead to his quest to destroy other universes. He would indeed take the place of Iron Man. Who, if he were still alive, would totally think. the same thing only now the end results are much worse since Doom is a much worse person with more powers. I just like the idea of ​​Doctor Strange being semi-responsible for Tony Stark's death and correcting the course of the universe by introducing someone who has both powers.

Tony Stark and Doctor Strange, but it's much worse, it's a fun way to think about it properly and ultimately this would form the backbone of the Kang Dynasty and the Secret Wars, so the Kang Dynasty will see Kang try to conquer everything the Multiverse and for this. The Doom movie will fight for everything I just said in its mind, destroying all the other universes to protect our own is the most important thing we can do and in the end I imagine Doom could be placed in a similar situation to Tony in the endgame, maybe. The Kang dynasty will end with Doom in a position to finish off Kang and stop the multiversal war once and for all and where Tony sacrificed himself.

Doom would do the opposite and destroy the Multiverse, create a new world battle reality, and instill God Emperor Doom himself. to rule everything and then set up Secret Wars to be a proper sort of faithful adaptation with Doom in charge and our heroes having to stop it. Look, I don't really like to paint Tony Stark as the worst bad guy, but if you look at the context of everything and see what would be the best narrative story for the MCU, then it's interesting to think about it properly. Do you think my

reason

ing that Tony Stark has to die makes any sense?

Is there anything you would do? Otherwise, let me know your thoughts in the comments below. The MCU would be better or worse if Robert Downey Jr still played Tony Stark now. Would it give more direction to this current phase or would his presence take up time from all the new characters we have? earned over the past few years, let me know what you think in the comments below thanks for watching CBR until next time
