We can also imagine that the disappearance of Jarvis at the end of Age of Ultron will have marked Tony Stark. Although he was reincarnated in the form of Vision, the android’s relationship with the superhero was never like the one he shared with Jarvis. Too bad because like Iron Man,

Vision is one of the most successful characters in the MCU !
