HOLY CRAP THAT LOOKS AWESOME!!
I have loved the What If... series since first reading What If The X-Men Had Lost Inferno as a teen, this gives me uber-goosebumps.

Now that looks awesome!

Just seen trailer two - looks interesting and, as a complete "alternate universe" they can do whatever they like with race/gender etc swaps but I think it's more aimed towards keeping the same characters identical but placing them in a different situation.
I think King Killmonger (the hero from Black Panther to me) will be one to watch out for, seeing as it looks like he finally might be recognised as the good guy in this one!

Looks very interesting. Also helps that the original cast are voicing the characters too.

Downey is doing Iron-man? Didn't really sound like him in the new trailer.

Killmonger is very prevalent in that trailer.... prediction....
in alternative reality he becomes black panther then merges back in for 2nd film as a “goody”

Not a bad call that the multiverse might be a solution for that problem.

Already some sad "internet rage" appearing because Marvel replaced the image of Sam (Falcon/Capt America) on their Capt America twitter page with one of Capt Carter, a white woman, from the new What If show, with typical comments being "Marvel just couldn't wait to replace a black Cpt America with a 'white faced' woman" etc.
All a bit sad and predictable nowadays.

Internet rage, or a few random comments from people that don't understand how alternate universes work?

I'm quite looking forward to this, there are some interesting premises. Always used to like DC Elseworld Comics never read the Marvel equivalents.
Quite a short episode. Felt a bit average compared to other Marvel series. The animation looks like it's computer generated rather than drawn, although I'm sure it will grow on me.
Don't get the feeling it will tie into the movies like the 1st 3 Disney+ Marvel series either.

What if? from what I have read this ties in from the end of Loki and Loki ties into Dr Strange and the MoM. What if? is a look into various time lines that Dr Strange MoM will be visiting.
The animation is CGI, to be honest, I thought that would have been obvious. Looks pretty damn good too.

No idea, just lots of tweets (hundreds) from "toxic fans" complaining about an image of Black Capt being replaced by one of White Woman Capt, like I said it's all a bit sad to me.
Soldato
From what I have read it's rage from putting a white woman in place of a black Cap't. What they don't understand is, Captain Carter is the first episode. They change the poster to reflect the next episode, this was with wanda and Loki. Not sure on Cap winter.

I enjoyed it, not watched animation for a long time. Looking forward to the next one.
