    So there's a lot of aspects to your question. Some more information would be helpful. Realistically, will you be able to get more hero points in time before the covers disappear? If you can, I'd hold them. If you can't hold all of them...

    1) By Iron Man, I'm assuming you mean the 1* Iron Man. If you can complete your missions without him, sell him for the slot. The only current "need" for a 1* currently is in the Deadpool Daily, and Juggernaut (or Iron Man, actually) can solo that node. Juggernaut is easiest imo. You can also get by with about four 2*s, but it may be easier to get more these days. It's been a little while for me.
    2) Hulk (Green) is a cover that you will see more than most other 3* covers, because there is a hulk PvE event that always guarantees (thus far) a Hulk green cover if you can beat all of the nodes at least once in that mission, so that's probably the one I'd drop first.
    3) What color Black Panther cover is it? If it's blue, that power is considered pretty weak. You could probably afford to drop it and find 3 more before you find another 5 yellows / 5 blacks (his much better powers). If it's yellow or especially black, I'd hang onto it.
    4) Vision and Gamora aren't considered super strong characters by anyone I don't believe, though some people really like Blade. It really comes down to how much you like them. I'm a huge fan of Loki green, but I can be fairly unlucky (enemy chains a lot on me) and I highly value AP steal, so it's right up my alley. That said...
    5) You're not going to fully cover X-Force for a long time. You'll get 1 of each color as a daily reward pretty quick though. If you can spare the slot, I'd keep him. If you're really struggling, he's probably going to be more deadweight than anything for a while.

    Keeping the 3*s lets you get taco tokens in the deadpool daily (or another cover, if you can handle the 4-wave event) - so those are really good now. Heck, you could pull more 4*s from the taco tokens now, so the 3*s might even be worth more to you than the 4* wolverine is currently.

    What I would do is slot as many as you can, in the order that they're expiring. That gives you more time to get more HP for the next ones. You'll essentially have to make the decision only when a cover is expiring as to who you keep and don't. I ended up playing the game enough in the beginning that I gave $10 that I used on roster slots when I got in a similar situation as you, as I'm guessing that's what this mechanic is designed to do.

    Also - stop opening tokens. Let them pile up. They don't go away, you can open them whenever. You should be getting a lot of covers just from the prologue, I'd also hop into some pvp missions and beat on the seed teams. You'll get several 1-2* covers that way. Once you can afford more slots, then you can open more tokens.

    Good luck!
