"What if Tony Stark hadn't been trapped in a cave before he developed the Iron Man suit, and the entire project was pure vanity from a complete unrepentant toolshed where he was a gun for hire and the Avengers formed to stop him specifically." no no, that makes white man look bad, but what about "What if Tony Stark declared a ten year old black girl to be stronger than him"
The best things about Riri are how completely retarded Bendis [a tautology I know] and others have written her.
Built her suit by stealing parts
Functions better as a villain in general and even came off more villainous than some villains she interacted with at the time like Dr. Doom.
Background character motivation is literally a result of her teacher telling her she can't be Tony Stark because the previous example wasn't stupid enough for Riri to listen to. She's that petty and lacking in actual characterization.
I've got the complete vol 1 what if? And the 90s vol 2. Those were some of the best stand alone stories that gave us things like May Parker and A2. Wolverine as the unrepentant horseman of war laying waste to every super villain including Apocalypse until true world price is one of the best.
One of the common, and perhaps overused, plot hooks in the 'What If?' stories are "What if X died during this event?", [literally in one case where Professor X died from the Techno-virus], so the opposite where someone lives is often an interesting and yet at times tragic comparison.
The first Civil War event had a version where Cap and Tony don't end up fighting during their initial conversation and many heroes don't die in the resulting conflict. This by itself has severe consequences due to future events but the largely peaceful outcome because of relatively minor changes is soul crushing to Tony because if how things turned out otherwise.
Yea the “what if they didn’t die” story was a common one and things usually ended worse like if Gwen Stacy lived. The one where Spidey marries black cat was interesting. But I’m not surprised they didn’t choose to use the comic books as an inspiration
If you feel an irresistible need to consume the new black tranny Captain America, or whatever they're pushing, then that's a private matter between you and your testosterone level. I'm not stopping you ^^
Johnson adores ‘What If…?’ because it shows “what real heroism, through Black guy magic, can actually look like,” which raises the question: what the hell is ‘black guy magic?’ God willing it’s better than the cheesy white guy magic of David Copperfield.
Clearly the male equivalent of the cringe-inducing phrase "black girl magic".
Welcome to the last 10 years of Marvel comic books. There is a good reason their books are dying. All the creators who are good just left DC and Marvel. They got a offer from sub stack to do their own books. Many others have left to do Kickstarter campaigns in the last few years because they were pushed out by the woke ideologues.
Marvel What If would be GREAT, if it wasn't produced by Disney, written by Marvel, and created in 2021. Even if it were purely character swaps, zero chance any characters move up the list of progression.
They traded Peter Quill for wakanda boy, and it went from "haha no one knows who this poorly adjusted traumatized and kidnapped out of place goofball" to "Woah, THE Starlord! Hail Wakanda, er, I mean hail Starlord." 100% less interesting.
selfish, privileged mediocre white men who stumble through life, making costly mistakes that invariably hurt others along the way, but somehow in the end they get to be the hero
Hmm, I wonder. I heard recently that it gets bundled a lot with other services like mobile plans. Is there some kind of a report detailing how many of their customers are actually paying?
I keep one going because my 90 year old grandmother asked me to get one for her. She likes to have it for when her great grandkids visit so she can show them the classics. Her old vhs copies have aged too much.
What If...
... no one watched your bad stories?
What sucks is that the original comic book series had some good stories they could’ve adapted. Instead it’s just a race/gender swap orgy.

And my favorite was what if Gwen Stacy didn’t die or what if Spider-Man kept his 6 arms. That was actually the first what if I read.

Of course they wouldn't, they'd need to pay royalties if they did that 💰
That's what happened with HBO's Watchmen series, apathy.
Don't pay money to watch their crap. Don't pirate it either. Spend your time on something worthwhile instead.
This is real advice. Even good trash is still trash
You can't tell me what to do.
If you feel an irresistible need to consume the new black tranny Captain America, or whatever they're pushing, then that's a private matter between you and your testosterone level. I'm not stopping you ^^
Ah, you got me. I wouldn't pirate that shit even if I was paid to do so.
Clearly the male equivalent of the cringe-inducing phrase "black girl magic".
I hate that term. Says something about their mentality.
Black guy magic;
Watch the mysterious Black Guy that never works a second in his life but somehow always has a wad of cash around
Watch the mysterious Black Guy that impregnates women and never pays a cent of child support
Watch the mysterious Black Guy that is caught committing a crime but still swears he is innocent with the mystical ancient chant ~dindunuffin~
Voodoo chicken bones
Glad I cancelled my subscription. With that show they could actually adapt the stories from the comic book series but why bother doing that.
I'm very happy with the fact that this is the first time that I've ever heard of this tv show.

What if Libtards actually created new and interesting concepts.
Tokien was once quoted that evil cannot create, only corrupt.
Nailed it perfectly.
They'd still suck.
It would be nothing but pages of text just like their attempts at memes.
And that's just 1 character
This is called the "hero's journey".
These people are stupid, degenerate, and evil.
Can't expect them to know what the monomyth is, that would require actual effort!
And for season 2 they will do what ifs of phase 4, which looks to be their worst of the lot. Brilliant.
It's seldom the concept, it's the blunt activist bent
Well, that’s been the comic books themselves for decades, too.
so nothing different, then
You expected anything different in the current year? I'm more disappointed that you watched it to find that out instead of already knowing.
I didn't, this is a RT article.

Bundling it with my streaming package actually saved me money, and I really only use it for The Mandalorian.
