Tony Stark: The Invincible Iron Man Appreciation 2023

[Huntsman Spider]

I still don't get why in modern Marvel it's written with X-Men seemingly being the only ones to care about Sentinels.

The other heroes think the Sentinels only target mutants. They don't seem to know about Days of Future Past where they'd destroyed the Avengers and Fantastic Four (only Franklin was left of the FF, while the Avengers were wiped out, all we ever see of them in that story is gravestones).

Which, thanks to Orchis, is no longer the case. Tony found out earlier in Duggan's run by hacking into one of Feilong's Stark Sentinels that the Fantastic Four, the Avengers, and other nonmutant heroes were also on Orchis's list of targets for elimination. Hell, Uncanny Spider-Man #4 had a Stark Sentinel give a (presumably deliberate) false signal implicating the original Spider-Man as a mutant to turn the public against him when he spoke out against an impending lynch mob for a regular pizza delivery driver who was leaving something as a tribute for the X-Men's Treehouse.

Sounds like Days of Future Past is actually going to happen on Earth 616

Yes, it definitely sounds like that, especially since Orchis's true leadership's endgame is to clear the way for machine intelligences that hold all organic life in contempt, human and mutant alike, to achieve Dominion status, which would entail the assimilation of the entire planet into the Phalanx.

I do. And I liked it. Probably the best modernized revamp of Iron Man's rogues' gallery thus far. Was looking forward to a Season 3 that might have revolved around forming the Avengers, since most of the heroic guest characters that showed up would have been just about perfect for an Avengers team. Also, pretty solid characterization of Tony himself, even as a teenager.

Oh, I love this guys' videos (and this show) .

My only disappointment was they off-screened a lot of Iron Man villains with the Gene/Howard stuff and Tony needing to get saved a wee too many times.

Yeah, I can understand that, especially the latter part.

Rumiko died and was never mentioned again. There were no scenes of Stark mourning her past the issue in which she died. She has never even been mentioned, or even popped up in a thought-bubble since then. So in my fan-fic, the Mandarin resurrects her and gives her the means to avenge the fact that Stark didn't save her or even mourn her or even think about her one time. He remembers a shawarma place he glimpsed once longer than he remembered Rumiko.

It's likely the reason for this is that writers just weren't interested in telling stories about Stark mourning her, but in-story it makes Stark look horrible, like some kind of sociopath. And it hurts all of us Rumiko-shippers.

So in my alternate universe, Mandarin resurrects her, and she gets her revenge on Stark for failing to save her, and especially for not even thinking about her once after her death. He never even lit a candle at her grave for her on her birthday, so she lights him up.

That's pretty dark!

That's pretty dark!

I like it though

That is a very interesting storyline to say the least. Although I never cared for Rumiko.

Wait, I'm confused... If Dominion status means the ultimate evolution of machines and artificial intelligence what was the actual goal of the Sinster clones?
