Not every episode but almost every episode of Marvel’s What If…? has managed to make Marvel fans watch Tony Stark die once again. Having not recovered from the conclusion of Avengers: Endgame once again, viewers have been reeling week to week as Iron Man bites the dust time and time again.

When recruiting this version of Gamora though she’s working alongside Tony Stark to eradicate the Infinity Stones from their universe, Tony even has a Hulkbuster style armor from his time on Sakaar.
