Celebrate the 50th anniversary of WHAT IF? with shocking tales featuring your favorite heroes!
It’s the eternal question that has fascinated Uatu the Watcher for so long: What if things were otherwise? Get ready for more unpredictable answers as acclaimed creators change key moments in Marvel history and show how they could have gone! Imagine a world where Madelyne Pryor, the Goblin Queen, survived the Inferno — and Cyclops chose to stay with his wife and raise their son, Nathan, together! Ponder the consequences if Spider-Man’s symbiote suit had bonded with the Mighty Thor, God of Thunder! Ask yourself what would have happened if it was the Ultimate Universe that had survived the cataclysm of SECRET WARS! Or if teenage Jessica Jones, classmate of Peter Parker, was the one bitten by the radioactive spider! Or if the Runaways had discovered their parents were villains and decided…not to run away! What if Captain America was unfrozen in 2099? Or Cassandra Nova succeeded in killing her brother, Charles Xavier? Plus: Legendary writer J.M DeMatteis presents a thrilling twist on his all-time-classic tale “Kraven’s Last Hunt”!COLLECTING: WHAT IF…? UNCANNY X-MEN (2026) #1, WHAT IF…? THOR (2026) #1, WHAT IF…?

Comic Legion goes the extra mile to make sure people get the hot new books. Their screening process is the real deal, and every book I've received has been near mint, bagged and boarded. That means a lot to me as someone who submits a ton of comics for grading.
