Marvel fans might have uncovered an interesting connection between ‘VisionQuest’ and Tony Stark‘s family history. A new fan theory suggests the mysterious client pulling the strings behind the series’ events could be Morgan Stark, Tony’s eccentric uncle mentioned in ‘Infinity War’.
Is Morgan Stark Connected to Howard Potts?
In the comics, Morgan Stark is Tony’s cousin, not his uncle. He is portrayed as a jealous and ambitious relative who resents Tony’s success and wants access to the Stark family’s wealth, technology, and business empire. Morgan has even attempted to take control of Stark Industries.

This makes him a particularly interesting candidate for the mysterious client in ‘VisionQuest’. Considering that Vision’s advanced technology and Tony’s remaining artificial intelligence legacy could be valuable targets, bringing Morgan into the MCU would make considerable sense.
It would also allow Marvel to explore the consequences of Tony’s legacy through someone from his own family. Another interesting part of this theory connects the mysterious client to Howard Potts, the identity used by Tony Stark during the time heist in ‘Avengers: Endgame’.
However, there is an important distinction here. Howard Potts was not a separate character or a mysterious Stark relative. It was Tony himself using a fake identity when he travelled back to 1970 and encountered his father, Howard Stark, at Camp Lehigh. So, connecting the mysterious ‘VisionQuest’ client directly to the person who stole the Tesseract under that identity doesn’t quite work.

Still, Morgan Stark remains an interesting possibility. In Marvel Comics, his rivalry with Tony is rooted in jealousy, greed, and resentment, making him a potential antagonist who could inherit the same obsession with technology.

With Vision now dealing with the complicated legacy of Tony’s artificial intelligence creations, including J.A.R.V.I.S., F.R.I.D.A.Y., and E.D.I.T.H., introducing someone from the Stark family could add another layer to the story.
Of course, this remains speculation, and Marvel has yet to confirm the client’s identity. But imagine Vision discovering that the person interested in his existence is connected to the very man who helped create him. That would be quite a twist.
