I dunno--seems to me that the writers would be compelled to eventually break them up if they did get together, for the sheer drama if nothing else. In my limited experience with both media, comic books are pretty soap-operish.
True enough - though I think they could drag out the slow climb to couplehood and beyond for a dang long time first...
And even if they did split, I suspect it'd lead to another slow haul back toward one another. I could even handle it if they did so for well told, believable reasons, but then I probably am hoping for too much.
Well the movie arc definitely has a set block of time in which to finish telling their story. The comic is anyone's guess what'll happen. So between the two, I'd put odds on favourite on the movies giving us the shipper ending (and even that might not be likely) rather than the comic... which will in true soap opera fashion drag it out... and out... and out... and then Pepper's evil twin will come back from the dead, pregnant with Tony's sprog and... ;P
