Iron Man (2026-)

The unapologetic genius of Tony Stark has always been his greatest asset and his most persistent ghost. For years, the specter of his own mortality has been a constant, internal countdown. Now, that countdown has an external echo. The formidable Madame Masque, operating with the vast resources of Advanced Idea Mechanics, has begun constructing a weapon born from Stark's own deepest fears. She is building what he has only dared to imagine—the next evolution of survival, forged not for life, but as an answer to death itself. The race is no longer against time, but against a reflection of his own brilliant, desperate mind.
