10 Things You Need To Know About The Future Of Marvel

7. Tony Stark Probably Isn't Iron Man, Sam Wilson Is Still Cap

A somewhat de-powered Vision is just one of the huge reveals for the future of the Marvel Universe, post-Secret Wars, that All-New All-Different Avengers has hinted at. Along with Kamala and Miles the team is rounded out by young Nova Sam Alexander, along with a load of other grown-up superheroes. All of whom are sort of familiar... ...But sort of different, too. From the looks of it Marvel aren't going to instantly go back on all those big changes they made to some of their biggest characters. The Free Comic Book Day issue includes a Thor that's still a woman, and Sam Wilson remains in place as Steve Rogers' replacement for Captain America. One of the most intriguing teases is that Tony Stark appears to be off the table, too. The new Avengers don't have €œStark money€, and the Iron Man on the team looks different too. He does claim to have been there at the inception of the team, with suggestion that Rick Jones might be wearing the armour. But where's Tony?
