New Streaming: What If...The Avengers' Big Week Turned Bad

 After a short delay, let's return to the SPOILER-free Recap of this neat little Series.

This time, we see a cross-Film story gone wrong...

The Premise

In this tale, we cross between a bunch of Films that apparently take place in a tight timeline- 1 week.

In it, we see Fury trying to recruit/cure Tony Stark (from Iron Man 2).

However, this time is different- he dies!

More strange events occur that interrupt the normal flow of events...

The Execution

We see things go wrong and see how SHIELD (mostly Fury) try to recover and roll with it.

Said wrong things continue to compile, leading to different new events that aren't good for the Timeline.

Is it a Big Change?

Very much yes!

* Tony Stark dies during Iron Man 2.  Who wants a DVD Cut of it with this now?

* Thor's story also hits a big snag (to say the least).

* His tragedy brings out a different attack on Earth from Loki.

* Edward Norton's Hulk is now Mark Ruffalo.  That's more a 'F**k you, Norton' though.

* Another off-screen death is what puts things in motion, so obviously another Marvel Film can't play out right AT ALL.

This one is definitely a bit dark, but really embraces the What If...? feel for me.  One change- no SPOILERS- puts someone/some people in motion as bad guys.  They basically f**k up everything for everyone.  Since this is a one-and-done, they can just go all out.  I will say that there are still some unanswered questions for me here, mostly regarding one person's absence.  I could just be unclear on the wonky timeline though and it's just a 'me' issue.  The Art Style gets to go crazy here as we see lots of recognizable Characters and Scenes.  If you can embrace the 'early Disney' style, it's alot of fun here.  Getting *most* of the key players here to voice their Characters here is nice.  We also get a bit more Coulson, which is great!  As a whole, we're getting a nice mix of Stories and Tones here too.  This bad week for the MCU was thankfully not ruining my week.  Wow- I feel like you're all staring at me after this forced and awkward wordplay...

Next time, a newer Marvel standout gets their chance to mess things up.  Will he make a Supreme nightmare for us all?  See you then...
