How Multiverse Of Madness Killed Iron Man’s MCU Return
With the introduction of the multiverse in the MCU came the concept of variants , which are the different versions of every person across the multiverse . These do n’t necessarily have to await like their translation from the Sacred Timeline ( likeStrange ’s strain inDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness ) , as they can wait altogether unlike , like the three Peter Parkers inNo Way Homeand the various Lokis inLoki . This give viewing audience hope for Iron Man ’s return as a variant from another timeline in the multiverse , butMultiverse of Madnessalso introduced incursions , and these are what defeat the theory of Iron Man ’s return .
An incursion is the resultant of extend multiversal traveling , which can have one or more universes to be totally destroyed . Earth-838 ’s Strange triggered an incursion after dreamwalking through the multiverse to find a way to destroy Thanos , and in another cosmos , Sinister Strange ( who was deprave by the Darkhold ) have an penetration that destroyed his own universe , as he dreamwalked across the multiverse to shoot down his own variants . Doctor Strange ’s travel inMultiverse of Madnessalso cause an penetration , as informed by Clea , proving that no one can stick around in a population that is n’t theirs without spark major catastrophes , so Iron Man ca n’t return as a multiverse variant .
Could Secret Wars Undo Doctor Strange’s Illuminati Warning?
The Illuminati from Earth-838warned Doctor Strange about traveling across the multiverse given what their variant of Strange did , but as seen in the respite ofDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , he did n’t really follow their advice . Now , the upcoming crossover eventAvengers : Secret Warscould see a monumental multiversal engagement for the final surviving timeline , which could put an end to penetration for the rest of the MCU . If that ’s the case , a new Iron Man could be introduced , with his comportment explain as him being from another lost timeline , thus not creating an incursion . WhileIron Manis one of the most dear MCU characters and his death was shocking , the accuracy is that this existence has already moved on from his narration , and there ’s no indigence to bring him back even if just as a version .
