What if...? S2 E2 Review:

Man, Asgard cannot catch a break lmao. How many times has it been destroyed now? Poor Thor.

And speaking of Thor, I love him here. When he first showed up and knocked Quill out he looked menacing as hell! Honestly his appearance here is proof you can make him both goofy and badass at the same time without assassinating his character *cough* Taika *cough*

Thor also being the character who is in the most teams is funny to me.

Also really nice how both Hank and Quill got closure by learning to care about others, I really liked his parental side of Hank instead of the usual grumpy old man he is in the movies. Pretty sure he just went on and adopted the kid, probably a good thing that Quill has a father figure now that isn't a megalomaniac. Hope and Quill siblings real!

Can I also say how sad it is that Howard never gave up on Bucky? He kept hope that his friend was in there somewhere, even when he told Peggy to move on... Which makes what happened in the main timeline all the more heartbreaking. (Also this episode implies that Peggy and Howard always knew Bucky was turned into the Winter Soldier or at least they had suspicions that it was him) and he's free at the end so hopefully he'll end up in a better future than the main timeline.

I enjoyed this more than last episode and I definitely would like to see more of the 80s Avengers.

Final Score: 9/10.

It's worse than I thought. Captain Mar-Vell and Jason Todd died six years apart, and their deaths were written by the same man. That's such a short span of time! Oh, and it gets worse and weirder.

According to Wikipedia, Jim Starlin described writing the death of Captain Marvel as "cheaper than going to a shrink". Jesus Christ, Jim Starlin! Look, I get it. Jim Starlin's dad died of cancer. My mom died of brain cancer a few years ago. But when my mom died, I went to therapy! I didn't write a story of a fictional character dying of cancer! Jesus Christ!

Also, Jason Todd 's was kind of thanks to Eddie Murphy. I'm not kidding. Denny O'Neill saw a 1982 SNL sketch in which Eddie Murphy encouraged viewers to call the show if they wanted him to boil a lobster on air. And that inspired him to do the 900 number poll gimmick.

Oh! And Kicker #3! DC wanted to have a character die of AIDS, and Jim Starlin filled the suggestion box with proposals to kill off Jason, but DC staff rejected the idea after realizing all the papers had Starlin's handwriting. Let me repeat that, louder. JIM STARLIN TRIED TO RIG A SUGGESTION BOX SO HE COULD KILL JASON TODD WITH AIDS! Jesus Christ! What's wrong with you, Jim Starlin!

You know what? Captain Mar-Vell and Jason Todd should be allowed one free suckerpunch to Jim Starlin when he finally dies. When a man kills a character off as a form of therapy and tries to give another character AIDS (and both within one six year time span), there's probably something wrong with him.

Can you please make one of incorrect quotes for Mar-Vell aka Wendy Lawson and Y/N when she finds Y/N who is visiting grave of their universe Gwen Stacy and finds Goose approach them and that's when Mar-Vell revealed herself and Y/N revealed that he can see memories of people and objects so he knows about her being alien and something lights up inside of Mar-Vell (she starts to fall for Y/N)

Y/N continues cleaning Gwen’s grave as Wendy approaches…

Wendy: she must’ve been something special, huh?

Y/N: yeah. I miss her every day

Goose walks up and nuzzles Y/N…

Wendy: my cat has a special interest in you

Y/N: are you sure the cat’s the only one?

Y/N gives a little wink and Wendy blushes…

I'm excited about this team up.

Winter Soldier, Ant Man, and Mar Vell!

Yes! That is Mar Vell (Wendy Lawson).

Peter Quill! He doesn't look happy. I'm thinking this is just after his mom died. He's wearing the same clothes as he is in the beginning of GoTG movie.

I love this team up too!

King T'Chaka, Howard Stark (people are saying General Ross, but I think he'd be in uniform not a suit), Bill Foster, Peggy, MarVell, and Hank Pym

I'm excited!

Avengers Annual #7 (Starlin, Nov 1977). Whoa, this snuck up on me. The Avengers assemble in orbit to battle Thanos, who has summoned an army… and gathered the six soul gems! An early draft of Infinity War, then. Starlin’s intricate art and moody narration paint dire stakes. This seems like an end for Adam Warlock, too — who absorbs himself into his vampiric soul gem.

Carol thinks of Teddy as family 😭 I really enjoyed their interactions in Captain Marvel (2019) and in Captain Marvel: Assault of Eden (2023), they’re so precious to me.

Phyla, Genis, Teddy, and Carol need to hang out more, especially since they’re all Mar-Vell’s legacy. Well, when Genis doesn’t have a hole in his chest. Phyla, Genis, and Teddy are all siblings and they have vastly different thoughts about their father, which I think is really interesting! (I read Death of Captain Marvel recently, and it gave me so many Mar-Vell feels 🥺)

I was a little apprehensive about the plot, and I still am because Yuna is just not interesting, but Stephen and Clea are making sporadic appearances and it also seems to be focusing on the Mar-Vell legacy, which I think needs to be focused on more so I’m happy so far. I hope Phyla-Vell shows up soon!

The fact that I don't think there's much fanart of Captain Marvel/Shazam and Captain Marvel/Mar-Vell of the Kree is a shame. Both characters honestly deserved better. Shazam deserved not to be sold to DC because DC was petty and accused it of plagiarism, and Mar-Vell didn't deserve to die because Jim Starlin was going through some stuff and needed a punching bag. Can we let these two just share a drink? Or maybe not a drink, since Billy Batson is a kid. Whatever. Let Mar-Vell, Billy Batson and maybe Rick Jones all have a little hangout session. They all deserve it. And as is usual when I remember Jim Starlin killed two characters at two companies within 10 years (Mar-Vell and Jason Todd), I want to write that man a piece of hate mail. Or at least imagine those two characters punching him.Screw you, Jim Starlin.

Earth X #X

What the hell does #X mean??

Well, it means the end. The end of Earth… X. There’s two sequel series after this.

Mar-Vell gets the cover to the last issue. And thank goodness for lens flares because I’m fairly sure he’s very casual Friday.

Earth X. It’s hard to summarize the previous 13 (because #0) issues.

Long story short, the Earth is an egg. All superpowers and mutation are because the Celestials manipulated human evolution to make them guardians of the egg.

The mass mutation of Earth’s population has kicked off 200 years early because Black Bolt set off a terrigen bomb.

A psychic kid called the Skull rose as a Celestial failsafe to control the aggressive and unruly mutated population but Captain America killed him.

So the Celestials landed on Earth to wipe out all life before it threatens the egg but Black Bolt sacrifices himself to shout really loudly into space for Galactus.

Celestials vs Galactus.

Kind of a lose/lose situation for humanity.

The Earth X X issue is double sized. There’s a lot to cover but the subplots have mostly dried up.

Here’s one I’ll get out of the way early.

Reed Richards suddenly remembers that he promised Medusa that he’d help find her missing son.

God. I had completely forgotten about that. It was almost an inciting subplot that got the Inhumans bumping into Reed. But anyway, since Reed got Black Bolt killed, he feels obligated to duck out mid-plot resolution and reunite Medusa and her son.

Who was the new Black Knight all along.

Cool to wrap that up.

But back to the headlining fight.

According to New Watcher Aaron Stack, Galactus is tougher than one Celestial but might get overwhelmed by a Host of them.

And he keeps tinkering with his Galactus machines instead of punching giant space gods.

Luckily, Galactus gets some backup.

Namor toots as he pleases to summon sea monsters to attack the Celestials in the name of ancient-er Atlantis and for the dinosaurs.

He gets smacked aside.

Silver Surfers Norrin Radd and Shalla-Bal attack the Celestials to buy some time. And Shalla-Bal gets blowed up. Dangit, she’d only just been introduced last issue.

Loki brings an army from Hel, after convincing them that death is fake and that their entire identity was imposed on them.

(That’s why he shanked himself last time.)

They buy some time until the Celestials convince them death is real and they drop dead from it.

And during this, Galactus makes some big moves of his own.

I can practically HEAR this panel.

Like a static-y reverbish BWOOOOOOOOM!

Anyway, the Celestials eventually decide “fuck this actually” or however space gods would phrase it. They fuck off back into space.

Which just leaves the problem that now Galactus hunters and there’s a tasty planet right here.

Or whoever new Galactus this is.

Reed Richards turned Galactus into a star. The running narration implied that someone else has filled the vacated role.

Which has all to do with the tiers of mutation discussed in the previous issue.

Tier 1 - everyone has different powers. Ex: Earth right now.

Tier 2 - homogenization of powers into shapeshifting. Ex: the Skrulls or Reed Richards

And revealed this issue Tier 3 - completely malleable in body, mind, and will. Incredibly powerful but constrained by how observers identify them. Ex: the Asgardians.

This Galactus has become Galactus because he believes he’s Galactus and is believed to be Galactus.

But originally his name was

Franklin Richards.

Franklin who has connections to Galactus and has been said to be destined to be the last survivor of this universe the way Galactus was of the previous.

(I don’t know whether all that stuff predates Earth X or was inspired by it. Possible tally marks.)

And Franklin whose name Black Bolt shouted into space, which drew Galactus to Earth to his confusion.

Reed can’t acknowledge Galactus is Franklin, not without leaving the universe without it’s counter to Celestials over-population. But he does suggest that Galactus is known for relocating the populations of the planets he eats. And since Franklactus is influenced by how he is viewed, the universe has a kinder Galactus now.

There’s no planet to relocate Inhumanity to so Galactus just slurps the Celestial embryo right out of Earth and flies off into space with it.

So the day is saved but damn that’s a sad and lonely existence for Franklin.

He doesn’t even get some Radd company because the Silver Surfer is staying on Earth.

Back on the Moon, Aaron Stack gets tired of Uatu’s blah blah blah.

He finds where the old Watcher is hiding, since he has only appeared on a screen. He throws Uatu’s prior dismissal of good and evil and says that evil is “to do nothing in the face of need.”

Then he unplugs Uatu from the observation equipment so that on top of being blind, he also can’t hear anything from Earth. A Watcher with nothing to observe.

“He doesn’t have the right to watch. He took my face.”

Aaron really held that grudge.

So now we get into the epilogues and sequel hooks for Universe X.

Now that he knows that the terrigen mist caused the mass mutation of humanity, Reed has some ideas on how to fix it.

But he’s getting some pushback. There are people who want to keep their cool new superpowers. And T’Challa thinks the mass mutation gave the animal spirits of Wakanda anthro bodies and he won’t endorse a plan that could reverse that.

Peter and May have repaired their relationship. May has been helping Peter get back in shape.

Cop Luke Cage is still after Peter to join the police but Peter laughs off the idea of becoming a cop.

The circus guys that became the new X-Men are going to stick around as X-Men.

I cannot fathom why these guys were given so much focus for the minimal impact they had on the plot. I could not tell you what their personalities or even powers are.

I also don’t understand why Circus Daredevil got so much attention.

Earth X still has its mysteries.

After being given some massive foreshadowing that he’d play a role, Mar-Vell finally shows up when the plot is done!

He assures Reed he’ll be huge in the sequel.

“There’s a lot that’s about to happen, Reed. I’m coming back. I’m coming back to save everyone. And they’re not going to like it.”

????

Reed asks him to clarify but Mar-Vell refuses.

He does find the time to imply he’s going to be born from Perfect Humans Adam Warlock and Her though.

Why? God knows.

Mar-Vell also suggests that the dream he kept giving Bruce was a big brain move to indirectly get Loki aware that the Asgardians are fiction so he’d shank himself, go to Hel, and recruit the inhabitants to help fight the Celestials.

That’s… either very big brain or a complete asspull.

Captain America is still sad he had to murder a child.

Aaron Stack decides he’s going to be the Watchman instead of the Watcher. Sounds like more of an active role and I dunno maybe he likes Alan Moore.

Luna finishes her transformation into a beautiful butterfly lady so she’s ready for her arranged marriage to Black Knight/the Prince. But he has no interest in her.

Oof, that’s rough.

And Reed finishes converting his old vibranium beacon towers into giant devices to siphon and burn the terrigen out of the atmosphere so things can eventually be normal.

He calls them Human Torches because even Reed Richards has his sentimental side.

So that’s Earth X.

I don’t love everything it does but it makes a decent stab at tying everything in Marvel up in a big Celestial-shaped bow. I can appreciate how fleshed out the setting is, how there’s still stuff going on that we don’t know, and how it’s tightly plotted so that a lot of what seems to be random weirdness plays into the resolution.

I like how many prominent heroes go from depressed and beaten down by the past to getting their groove back. Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Peter Parker all start in a bad place and find their heroism again.

The creative team must have been very confident it would succeed since there are SO MANY sequel hooks in the ending.

And it can’t be overstated how much of an impact Earth X had on the rest of Marvel. I tried to call out the times when something from Earth X inspired another Marvel book. And I probably missed a lot because the ideas have become common enough that I didn’t realize they originated here.

But the book never explains what the X in Earth X means so 0 out of 5 stars, bad comic.
