Well, folks, there we have it. The best episode of Marvel’s What If…? is season two episode eight: What If… Kahhori Reshaped the World? The episode features the debut of Kahhori to the MCU. Not only is this Kahhori’s debut in the MCU, but it’s her debut in Marvel as a whole.
One of the things I enjoy the most in these What If…? episodes is seeing the Avengers combinations in the different universes. For the universe featuring the main Captain Britain Peggy Carter, there is an interesting difference in the teams from the MCU group.
Charles Soule set out to bridge the gap between Phase 1 and Phase 3 of The High Republic Era with the Marvel comic Shadows of Starlight. With the fourth book out now focused on Marchion Ro and the Nihil, he has successfully landed his mission.
There was a story about Gamora in season one of What If…? that was left out of the final season cut that was released on Disney+. I think “What If… Iron Man Crashed into the Grandmaster?” it’s kind of that episode? I don’t know.
Jon Favreau casting and writing himself to play Happy Hogan in the first Iron Man movie will always be one of those “Hey, why not?” stories that unexpectedly turn into multiple gigs spread out over an entire universe of films and television. Now, 15 years after his first appearance as Happy, he gets a starring… Continue reading What If Happy Hogan became Hulk Hogan?: Marvel’s What If…? episode 3 review

So, slowly but surely, they all show up: Hank Pym as Ant Man, Bill Foster as Goliath, King… Continue reading What If Peter Quill just needed a friend?: Marvel’s What If…? episode 2 review
I’m always amazed when Marvel gets so many actors from the MCU to come back and voice their animated characters in What It Is It? What If? The first episode of season two, “What If… Nebula Joined the Nova Corps?” enlisted six folks to reprise their MCU role! That, of course, includes the star of… Continue reading What if Nebula was in Blade Runner?: Marvel’s What If…? episode 1 review
When the first issue of Marvel’s Phase III of Star Wars: The High Republic revealed that (spoiler) Lourna Dee had survived and returned not as a member of the Nihil but as part of Skarabda the Hutts forces, I was surprised but glad. During Phase I, I enjoyed the journey that we got to go… Continue reading Marvel’s Star Wars: The High Republic #2 (Phase III) brings back a fan favorite character
Marvel’s Shadows of Starlight #3 continues to set up Phase III of the High Republic Era in Star Wars
When Marvel released the first book of Shadow of Starlight, I thought it was great. With Phase III being a jump 150 years into the first, book one in this series was a great refresher on what happened when we ended Phase I (Nihil destroyed Starlight and a lot of people died) with a great… Continue reading Marvel’s Shadows of Starlight #3 continues to set up Phase III of the High Republic Era in Star Wars
