Disney+ - Marvel's What If...? - animated show

I did a thread search and couldn't find one so I figured I'd start this.



First episode was pretty good. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't mind bending or anything.

I do like the idea of Captain Carter though.



Also I'm loving the animation style so far. It's new but also has that old Fleischer feel to it at the same time.

1 down 8 to go.

I probably won’t watch any of the episodes but I think a statue of the WWII Iron Rogers would be cool.

Liked it. However, Peggy seemed significantly stronger than Cap. Also, how did the Red Skull get the tesseract back? Peggy just handed it to the colonel in the scene before.

I like the concept as read these "What if?" growing up. The Captain Carter was fun, but I have to say the animation...it feels cheap to me. Reminds me of when they tried to do Berserk again and it looked so much cheaper than the 1990s version. Personal preference.

I really enjoyed the first episode and had no idea I needed Captain Carter in my life.

Well Peggy was a trained British Agent, Steve was a simple soldier. I don't think it was so much stronger as she knew what to do with it better than he did at first. Cap seems significantly "stronger" in Every film after First Avenger.

Spoiler
Peggy gives the tesseract to the colonel and he asks Howard if he knew what to do with it, Stark uses the tesseract to power the Hydra Stomper. So when Steve is captured the Red Skull gets the tesseract back, that's why the Hydra Stomper is low on power at the end.

I am anxious to see this series and I was a huge fan of the the original What If series and read some of the subsequent new runs as well. The What If comic stories always had a bittersweet tone to some of them, sometimes had a very happy ending or sometimes an ending that was worse than the original one that was depicted in the story it was based on.
