Agreed it doesn't make sense to destroy the Hyperion for this...but neither really does having two smaller land areas be connected by a small walkway behind a building.

You see, I think Marvel WILL end up behind the Guardians Tower and grow organically. Meaning ToT would be phase one of possibly a 3 phase expansion into a full “marvel themed area”. This land may even gobble up Bugs Land one day.
And northward in the current backlot area and old bus drop area the Hollywood theme would continue. This is where the Mickey Mouse ride would go. Remember we have not accounted for that yet. Keep in mind the show building for the Mickey Mouse ride will be huge. Consider the huge Great Movie Ride facility which is where the Mickey Mouse ride would go into at WDW. This COULD also mean the maintenance barn and end of line tracks for RCT could turn left at the Hyperion (as opposed to the right like it does now) because the RCT will need to be realigned as an entrance to the area behind Tower is developed.
I think for first time in a LONG time Disney is willing to make BOLD and expensive moves at the DL resort. This may be the time when we the fans are the ones thinking small. It took it a LONGGGGGGG time to happen but the money minting machine called “The DL Resort” Eisner dreamed up in the mid-90s may finally be coming to life.

This could work, but if Marvel is going south of the Tower rather than north, I think Bugs Land would definitely have to be used. If Mice Chat is in the ball park with their Marvel rumors, it will be a full land rather than a mini-land. There isn't enough room behind the Tower for 2-3 more attractions, plus the shopping, dining and M&G space a full scale Marvel Land will need.

Oh well, if you're going to give us an architectural rendering....

The place behind TOT GOTG wouldn't be big enough for a Tron coaster clone and Iron man clone from Hong Kong. If these are really what they are going for. You barely have enough room to put both in the expanded space using the transit drop off area and have enough left for shops and such.
Green is Iron Man, Purple-ish isTron Captain America bike coaster and yellow is space for shops and Howard the Duck M&G.
Green is Iron Man, Purple-ish is

That retail spot is too small.

I don't know if this is accurate--and maybe someone can correct me-- but I used an on-line acreage calculator and it told me the parking/back stage area behind ToT is less than 4 acres. If that is correct, I don't see how a full blown Marvel Land goes behind the Tower.
