I think I'm more annoyed by the unnecessary renumbering than anything else. C'mon, make it last at least longer than 20 issues before relaunching it. Well, I'm actually also annoyed by the unnecessary status-quo shake-up barely a year after we got rid of the latest status-quo shake-up. Maybe it can make for an interesting story. Just don't diminish Tony's importance to make Riri relevant ("She's smarter than Stark! She pilots better than Stark!!" or something like that)

The fact that the book is still going to be called Iron Man might provide a hint that Tony Stark, while stepping down from the role, will still have a lot of importance. At least he won't be forgotten, missing, presumed dead, dead or anything in between. It's something.
