From comic-Con to multiverse" – Sneak peek into the intriguing 'What If...?' Season 2

"Steve Rogers as the Winter Soldier, anyone?" That's just one tantalizing teaser from Marvel Studios' 'What If...?' Season 2, unveiled during San Diego Comic-Con. Fans and reporters caught their first glimpse of this twisty-turny Marvel realm at the panel, as reported by Polygon.

'The Unrecognizable: A New Multiverse'

The trailer showcased a buffet of beloved characters in situations far removed from their canon roles. Neil Gaiman’s alternative universe series 1602 gets a nod, while Shang-Chi characters spar with Odin. Even Iron Man finds himself marooned on the trash planet Sakaar in a special racing episode. But that's not all – there are whispers of a third season already in production and a spin-off show, 'Marvel Zombies', creeping into existence.

'What If...?': Reinventing the Marvel Cinematic Universe

Masterminded by A.C. Bradley, the creator of some of the Ms. Marvel episodes, 'What If...?' first graced Disney Plus in 2021. This animated anthology series dabbles in alternate timelines, asking bold questions about the Marvel Cinematic Universe we thought we knew so well. Could there be another reality just a slip in the space-time continuum away? The show aims to explore exactly that.

'Season 2: Unleashing Chaos'

The first season, with its nine episodes, journeyed through numerous Marvel franchises, toying with the fates of Captain America, Black Panther, and Iron Man. Picture Peggy Carter wielding the Super Soldier Serum to become Captain America – that's the level of mind-bending 'What If...?' is dealing in.

In Season 2, also slated for nine episodes, expect even more cosmic curveballs. Prepare to witness the stories of more Marvel heroes turned on their heads in the most unpredictable ways. The second season of 'What If...?' is set to hit Disney Plus in 2023, ready to transport us into a Marvel Multiverse where everything you think you know can, and probably will, be warped beyond recognition.
