This entry explores What If\u2026? Episode 1 and how Captain Carter may be a new Avenger within the Marvel Cinematic Universe&lt;\/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;. &lt;\/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, prepare for SPOILERS.&lt;\/em&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<hr\/>\n<p>A split decision separates you from your better self and your worst self. The choice to swerve right instead of left got you to where you are today. But in another reality, you went left, and that version of you is rich and famous and absent of regret. The only thing getting you through your daily life drudgery is the knowledge of the multiverse. That another you is thriving, and yet another you is suffering far worse.<\/p>\n<p>Marvel\u2019s latest Disney+ series\u00a0celebrates the stories they could have told but chose not to or didn\u2019t have the brain to foresee at the time (check out my review). In\u00a0<strong><em>What If\u2026?<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Episode 1 (\u201cCaptain Carter\u201d), the animated adventure <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a>s back to the franchise\u2018s early days, when skinny Steve Rogers refused <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.historynet.com\/rejected-these-famous-people-were-turned-down-by-the-military-at-least-at-first.htm\">4-F rejection<\/a> and forced his way under Dr. Erskine\u2019s needle. Except this time around, rather than observing from the gallery, Peggy Carter remained in the room with all the mad <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/sciencee\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Science\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">science<\/a>. And she sprung into action when the Hydra assassin detonated an explosive.<\/p>\n<p>The small choice to stay ignites a chain reaction, leading to Dr. Erskine and Colonel Phillips\u2019 demise and Steve Rogers getting gutshot. Unable to jump inside Erskine\u2019s Super Soldier machine, Rogers dribbles fluids on the floor as he watches Peggy take his place. Captain America is no more; <strong>Captain Carter<\/strong> to the rescue.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Marvels_Multiverse_Brushes_Against_the_ABC_Shows\"><\/span>Marvel\u2019s Multiverse Brushes Against the ABC Shows<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Observing <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> Episode 1 alongside us is Uatu, The Watcher (voiced by <strong>Jeffrey Wright<\/strong>). He explains these cracked mirror versions of our favorite characters using\u00a0the same language we learned during our time with <em>Loki<\/em>. In every choice, infinite possibilities reside. The timeline you live on exists because of a certain decision you made. Endless versions of you exist on endless branches, living the consequences of their cataclysmic selections.<\/p>\n<p>The multiverse presents tremendous storytelling potential, letting Marvel Studios writers explore past narratives, and correct, or enhance missed opportunities.\u00a0Nothing can take your Captain America away. His stories had purpose, but <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> gives Marvel a chance to uplift certain supporting characters who maybe deserved better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hayley Atwell<\/strong> as Peggy Carter was a definite highlight from <em>Captain America<\/em>: <em>The First Avenger. <\/em>Her\u00a0impact on Steve is essential for selling the emotional relief achieved during <em>Avengers<\/em>: <em>End<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a><\/em>\u2018s climax. But we also sensed that Peggy had more to offer than being the badass former flame to Captain America, and that helped produce her own <em>Agent Carter<\/em> television series.<\/p>\n<p>Those ABC Marvel shows are tricky to position next to the rest of the <strong>Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/strong>. While they were h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>y to reference the movies, the movies <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.inverse.com\/entertainment\/loki-implies-agents-of-shield-is-officially-out-of-the-mcu-disney-plus-abc-coulson\">rarely referenced them<\/a>. However, <em>Agent Carter<\/em> is one of the few ABC realities to get a nod cinematically when\u00a0James D\u2019Arcy\u2019s Jarvis appears in <em>Endgame<\/em> as Howard Stark\u2019s driver. That cameo acts as an acknowledgment of how incredibly dynamic Atwell\u2019s Peggy Carter was in <em>The First Avenger<\/em>, and it was a clue that we would be getting more of Peggy in the MCU\u2019s Phase Four operations.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Captain_Carters_Comic_Book_Origins\"><\/span>Captain Carter\u2019s Comic Book Origins<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Since Atwell\u2019s time with the character, Peggy has also reclaimed a larger space within the comic book universe. In fact, the initial spin on Captain Carter appeared in <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marvel.com\/comics\/issue\/67337\/exiles_2018_3\"><em>Exiles<\/em> Volume 3, Issue 3<\/a> in 2018. As explored in that storyline, her Steve Rogers was assassinated before he was given the Super Soldier serum, demanding Peggy to undergo the treatment. The <em>Exiles<\/em> Peggy Carter became Captain America, a mantle she somewhat disliked (being British and all), but eventually accepted as a proud resident of New York City.<\/p>\n<p>For a short window, <em>Exiles<\/em> became a place where MCU ideas could be fleshed out. Joining Peggy\u2019s Captain America were other multiverse castaways like Valkyrie (a spitting image for Tessa Thompson), Iron Lad (a Kang of another name), and Wolvie (a 2D cartoon version of the <em>X-Men<\/em>\u2018s Wolverine). Existing apart from Marvel\u2019s main comic book continuity, <em>Exiles<\/em> was free to wreck the place and have fun throwing up on the wall whatever nutso idea popped into the writer\u2019s head.<\/p>\n<p><em>What If\u2026?<\/em> is a similar playground, stemming from <em>Loki<\/em>\u2018s madcap variations. Did you see how much online conversation was preoccupied with Alligator Loki and Richard E. Grant\u2019s Classic Loki? <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> hangs a whole series on that delirium while also guiding the MCU audience from the shallow end to the deep end of the alternate realities swimming pool where <strong><em>Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>Spider<\/em><\/strong>\u2013<strong><em>Man<\/em><\/strong>: <strong><em>No Way Home<\/em><\/strong> could threaten to drown the uninitiated.<\/p>\n<p><em>What If\u2026?<\/em> Episode 1\u2019s Captain Carter offers a different kind of energy than Captain America. He was a solemn soldier who carried his sacrifice-obsessed family on his shoulders at all times. Captain Carter is not bogged down by such solemn duty. On the field, she busts Nazi and Hydra goons through a bellowing laugh. Her mission is a joyous one, an opportunity she\u2019s hungered for since she joined the service and discovered a male wall blockading her from contribution. With the Super Soldier serum in her veins, all barricades crumble before her. And watching them tumble sparks uncontrollable, giddy laughter.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_Peggy_Carter_to_Come\"><\/span>More Peggy Carter to Come<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>So, while <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/news\/marvel-ignored-the-agent-carter-tv-show-in-her-legends-episode-and-fans-arent-happy\">some might be mad<\/a> that not one frame from <em>Agent Carter<\/em> appeared in the character\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.disneyplus.com\/video\/77c5948d-704c-4770-9f69-3135dfe08645\"><em>Legends<\/em> Disney+ debrief<\/a>, we must appreciate how Peggy has reworked her way back into MCU significance. <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> Episode 1 reveals how Captain Carter achieves victory on fast forward when compared to her Captain America counterpart. On her first mission, she nabs The Tesseract (a.k.a. the Space Stone). This forces Red Skull (<strong>Ross Marquand<\/strong>) to plunge deeper into Hydra\u2019s supernatural science, unleashing a Cthulhu-like monstrosity.<\/p>\n<p><em>What If\u2026?<\/em>\u2018s first three episodes might not suggest a larger arc, but trailers and Episode 1\u2019s climax present a different story. As our Captain America threw himself into the ice, Captain Carter pushes herself into the Red Skull\u2019s void, disappearing into the Space Stone\u2019s portal and reappearing where Loki originally did in 2012\u2019s <em>The Avengers<\/em>. Now she\u2019s a woman-out-of-time and the perfect hero Nick Fury needs for his superhero initiative.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a safe bet that we\u2019ll see Captain Carter lead a different set of Avengers against a different impossible threat later on down the season. The question beyond <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> is whether or not these multiversal heroes will find their way to our previously established MCU characters? Will this cartoon have a more lasting influence than those rarely acknowledged ABC Marvel shows?<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong><em>What If\u2026?<\/em> Episode 1 is now <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.disneyplus.com\/series\/what-if\/7672ZVj1ZxU9\">streaming on Disney+<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<pre><code>    Related Topics: Marvel Explained\n    &lt;!-- AUTHOR BOX --&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<div class=\"gray-bg p-4 border small mb-5\">\n<div class=\"row align-items-center text-md-center\">\n<div class=\"col-md-2\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/filmschoolrejects.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/brad.jpg\" class=\"circle img-fluid\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md\">\n            Brad Gullickson is a Weekly Columnist for Film School Rejects and Senior Curator for One Perfect Shot.
