The best MCU show on Disney Plus [so far] isn’t WandaVision. It isn’t Loki. And it isn’t The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. It’s What If…?. Marvel’s upcoming animated show knocks it out of the park and although I’ve only seen the first three episodes, I’m confident in saying that this show will only get better. As someone who isn’t always excited for an animated show, I genuinely look forward to seeing the rest of What If…?
The Multiverse Is In Good Hands
What If…? stars Jeffrey Wright as the narrator and The Watcher of this show about different timelines and “what if?” scenarios. If you’ve watched the Loki show, you know that the timeline has branched off to a bunch of different multiverses and now we get to actually see what those multiverses contain. The Watcher explains that while we know what’s happened on the main MCU timeline, there’s different worlds where events did not go the way we’re used to seeing.
The Stories Are A+
In What If…? we get to see a world where Steve Rogers didn’t get the super-soldier serum – instead, it’s Peggy who gets the abilities that we saw Chris Evans have in the MCU. We get to see T’Challa as Star-Lord and a world where the Avengers never formed. And the thing is, none of these stories seem too far-fetched. They’re not only entertaining, but completely believable. While some aspects may seem a little jarring because it’s the opposite of what we’re used to, you immediately geek out at this “what if?” scenario.
What If…? is deliciously pleasing for any MCU fan. We all know what really happened and it’s nice to play around. While most of the episodes are fun, there’s a lot of heart and emotions. Marvel always hits the mark when it comes to merging fun and heart and they certainly didn’t miss with this animated series.
Rating: 5/5
You’re going to have fun, you’re going to geek out, and you’re going to want more. The animation style is gorgeous and this really makes me want more of this series. The possibilities are endless and I think everyone will agree that we need to get Jeffrey Wright into the physical MCU after watching What If…?
Marvel’s ‘WHAT IF…?’ series is captivating, imaginative, and brilliant. This might be Marvel’s best yet. It’s great seeing your favorites in new roles and adventures. With the multiverse in full swing, we might actually see some of these characters in live-action very soon. If you were a fan of the Marvel comic series then you’re going to love the show. Great storytelling and the animation is eye-catching and beautiful. We’re optimistic that Marvel will have a bright future with animated films and television shows
