Nuts? Totally! But it adds a spicy twist: what if the real Endgame wasn’t just Thanos, but a hidden battle within the Avengers?

Whoa! Did Doctor Strange Really Kill Tony Stark?

Iron Man’s sacrifice in Endgame was a gut punch, but a wild theory suggests Doctor Strange might have played a darker role. Remember Thanos’ creepy line about knowledge being a curse in Infinity War? Well, having peeled into millions of futures, Dr. Strange might have seen a terrifying vision: Tony Stark as a supervillain.

Tony’s a goddamn genius, but let’s face it, he can also be a reckless dude sometimes. Needless to say, a villainous Tony (with Infinity Stones and time travel-tech) could wreak havoc. Strange, ever the pragmatic sorcerer, might have seen Tony’s demise as the only way to ensure universal safety.

This theory gets weirder. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness showed Strange making ruthless choices for the greater good (like that alternate Strange who killed America Chavez for her reality-hopping powers ). Strange can be cold-blooded!

Here’s the juicy twist: Earth-838 beat Thanos without Iron Man’s sacrifice. This kinda throws a serious wrench in Strange’s only-one-way claim. So, was Stark’s demise truly a glimpse of a dark future? Strange’s silence on the matter only fuels the fire.

This theory, bonkers as it may be, offers intrigue into Strange’s heroism. Did Strange play God, or was he just a desperate sorcerer with an impossible choice? The debate is on!

Iron Man’s heroic sacrifice in Endgame had us all bawling, but a new theory suggests things might be more complex. Here’s the gist: was Tony a hero, or a ticking time bomb?

Think about it. Stark Industries churned out weapons that fueled villains like Obadiah Stane and Ivan Vanko [remember the whole “Iron Monger” debacle?]. Even his “good” intentions backfired. Damage Control (his brainchild) created the Vulture, and his BARF tech fueled Mysterio’s illusions.

Sure, Tony did a lot of good, but his genius often came with a hefty dose of unintended consequences. Remember Ultron, anyone? That whole Sokovia mess wouldn’t have happened if not for Tony’s “peacekeeping” program.

Here’s where it gets trippy. Doctor Strange, the master of alternate realities, might have seen a future where Tony’s inventions caused even more havoc. Maybe Thanos wasn’t the only threat – maybe a Tony-made doomsday device loomed large in some timelines.

With Tony gone, that threat disappears. Harsh, but kinda makes you wonder: did Strange doom Tony to save everyone else? The answer, much like the multiverse itself, remains a mystery.
