Iron Man"s Replacement Undermined His Biggest Struggle (But It Makes Them Better)

:0:0

Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man is one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's most iconic heroes, if not the number one, but the character saw his biggest struggle get undermined by his MCU replacement. RDJ's Iron Man was with the MCU right from its inception, with the hero going on to save the entire universe by sacrificing himself to use the Infinity Gauntlet and both snap Thanos and his army out of existence, as well as bring back everyone that had been killed by the Mad Titan during his original snap in Avengers: Infinity War.
Iron Man's sacrifice was one of the MCU's biggest events, and the character's legacy could not have died with him. Tony's daughter, Morgan, continues to keep the family name alive. Peter Parker, who had Tony as his mentor, saved the multiverse from a mistake of his own in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Apart from those two, there is one character that stands as the MCU's true replacement for Iron Man: Riri Williams. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever introduced the brilliant young character to the MCU before the upcoming Disney+ Ironheart series, and in doing so, the new character undermined Iron Man's biggest struggle in her first appearance.
Riri Williams Made Creating An Iron Man Suit Look Easy

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever saw Riri don two Ironheart suits, with her first one being made of rudimentary parts, while the second version of the suit was state of the art. A big part of Tony Stark's journey in the MCU was seeing the character struggle to come up with new suits and creative abilities for them. Tony went all the way from using a box of scraps to create his first suit to having the nanotechnology suits from his final adventures.
