One of the more interesting developments from the tie-in comic involved Tony planning for Thanos' invasion, and yet, he shouldn't really know about it, right?

Wrong. The tie-in comic made it abundantly clear that the vision he had at the start of Age of Ultron (y'know, the one where all the Avengers were lying dead on a space rock), still lingers. While that should serve as a pretty big warning sign, owing to the fact that, the last time Tony acted on that particular impulse, Ultron was created and the Earth was nearly destroyed, it's cause for reassurance in this most recent comic.

Tony might not be rattling around an old mansion as Cap had feared, but he's rattling around in the Compound's basement. Spidey's upgraded suit is waiting in the wings, and he's designing new tech to be deployed in the field should his vision ever come to reality. What isn't present, however, is Stark's BARF tech, which is rumoured to facilitate some time-travelling shenanigans in Avengers 4.

It's an impressive arsenal either way, and with Tony now focusing his efforts on a potential invasion, expect Stark to be locked, loaded, and fully prepared for when Thanos comes knocking.
