3. Retire the character altogether and replace him

That smells a bit like a loss for Marvel, but they could do that and bestow increased prominence to other characters who could replace Iron Man, but not by taking over his title. War Machine, for instance, could remain War Machine and fulfill the tasks ordinarily fulfilled by Stark.
And so could the Vision who, despite being a latecomer, has the most overpowering set of skills. No one could complain he’s not “qualified†to carry on his creator’s legacy.
I, however, would not disregard Pepper Potts. Could Marvel consider turning her into a feminine version of Iron Man? Is there room for Iron Woman in the MCU?
I mean, they already crafted a female Thor and a female Wolverine for the comics. So if there’s a wind of change blowing across the universe, why not do the same with Iron Man?
So, what do you think, guys? Which of my theories appeal most to you or seems plausible? Or do you have another one? Have your say below via comments! And don’t forget: stay tuned, we’ll bring you the hottest scoop on all things Iron Man!
