What Marvel's Avengers Tells Us About Upcoming What If? Crossover

Comic book Jason Aaron has been going all out on parallel universes in his current run on the Avengers comic book. From a parallel dimensional Heroes Reborn universe event, to the Free Comic Book Day reveal of the Avenger Prime diving into one dimension to another, while a new Multiversal Masters of Evil gathers, with different parallel versions of Doctor Doom, Thanos, Venom, Ghost Rider and Wolverine in tow. With a big Avengers #50/#750 anniversary issue coming up, Aaron is also launching a new event comic, Avengers Forever with Aaron Kuder, which features all manner of Avengers from a variety of parallel dimensions, all together as one.

Of course, this is all happening alongside the release of the Marvel Studios TV show, What If…?, featuring a bunch of different parallel dimension versions of characters from the MCU. With a mid-season teaser giving us this one shot:

Replacing The Avengers as we know them in the circular shot, with different versions of the characters, including Captain Carter and Dube Bros Thor from previous episodes of What If…? It looks as if they will have their own crossover episode soon, with different versions of MCU characters from different episodes teaming up as a multiversal Avengers, and that the comic book will be reflecting that. With archeologist Tony Stark the Invincible Ant-Man and more.

We have been here before. Marvel Comics published a series called The Exiles, made up of characters from different parallel universes, while DC Comics has been toying with the same, with Justice Incarnate in Infinite Frontier. Everyone loves a Multiverse these days…
