What if

What’s your favorite What If/Elseworlds comics?

If you could order DC/Marvel to make a comic based on your idea of a what if scenario, what would it be?

Been reading a lot of them lately and it’s interesting how many become reality years later. Like they’re sort of testing grounds for potential ideas, and a way to gauge fan reactions in a time before the internet

You think they'll get around to a Miles-verse comic where Spider-Miles meets Thor Miles and Cap Miles?

What If Paul Rabin was Spider-Man?

Get around to it? It’s here already my nigga

I AM BLACK

I always thought a cool idea would be “What If…Bucky had lived?” where Bucky is rescued by the US instead of the Soviets and becomes the Cap of the 50s and 60s instead of Mace and Burnside

Cap Miles probably

Thor Miles, I'm not sure they want to draw attention to that again

The author of the Miles becomes Thor comic actually apologised for being so shit, and apparently racist by insensitivity or some shit because it was so bad lol

“I’ve taken the last few days to step back and listen, and I acknowledge your criticism for my recent issue of What If...Miles Morales was Thor. While I’ve lived a different experience through my own Jewish and Mexican background, I still know inauthenticity hurts, and I’m sorry this failed on that front. I’ve appreciated hearing and learning from my Black and Puerto Rican comics peers and hope to use this moment to help promote better authenticity. I’m also going to donate what Marvel paid me to the Brooklyn Book Bodega, which works to build literacy and get more books to kids in NYC,” he wrote.

Turns out making asgard into a ghetto and having everyone act like PG13 hood niggas wasn’t cool

And that's why DEI is necessary.

by Odins fade, I command you

The niggers will love this one, they like their “fades” n shit right?

I just love the unsubtle racism of making sure black superheroes wear their timbs on the outside of their costumes

Tiger Spider, which bothers the mom somewhat until it is pointed out a tiger is a kind of cat.

I really liked the one where Spider-man had to keep his six arms. Worked out pretty well for him.

Why would Bucky become the cap of the 50’s and 60’s? He’d just be a regular dude I’d rescued, no?

Maybe he’d grow up to become director of shield or some shit though. Steve finally comes back and old man Bucky is the hard ass in charge of everything, outranking Steve

What was stopping him just getting them amputated anyway? Sure it would be painful but it’s relatively simple to amputate arms. And it’s better to have the scars than the many arms you can’t hide

Spider-cat
Arachnakitty
Webclaw

Night-Spider

But then he can only go out at night or he looks dumb

Most what if sucks, they entirely exist to show how stuff happening the way they did is good.

But best what if is easily the one that spawned the 100 issue comic lol.

Ummm how old is she?

She's a drawing.

He's just stronger at night.

I could see the US experimenting on him similar to the Soviets did and similar to what happened to Burnside and Monroe. Him being the director of SHIELD would be a cool alternative though

15 in that image.

Maybe it was a pretty risky procedure, I mean you gotta think his entire torso anatomy is altered for the arms. Besides it worked out well of him in the end, he became a stronger and more popular hero with the extra arms.

Feel like US attempts to recreate the super soldier serum have a shitty track record overall. Don’t risk it Bucky

Yikes. Why doesn’t Peter make her wear a baggier costume to cover up?

The House of M tie-in from Brubaker's Cap run is kind of like that though in that Cap also lives.
Funnily enough that's also one of my favorite alternate reality stories.

stupid sexy spider-girl!

Yeah if I had to pick one that would easily be the best. Though I did like President Cap.

Even in her own What If, Felicia can't win and Peter ends up married to Silver Sable

It's pretty basic bitch shit but Red Son is the only one I really remember reading. It's good
Is 1602 within the realm of What if...?? It isn't part of that series but I like it

This seems like a terrible idea desu.

It goes decently well. He saves the world.
