As announced during ComicsPRO, with this year marking the 50th anniversary of Marvel’s original What If? series, the publisher is celebrating with a series of eight all-new one-shots this summer.
The new one-shots kick off in June with WHAT IF…? UNCANNY X-MEN #1, where Gerry Duggan and Jan Bazaldua put a spin on one of comics’ most tragic love stories, and WHAT IF…? THOR #1, which sees Torunn Grønbekk and Sergio Dávila shift symbiote history towards a mighty new destiny!
Check out the full lineup along with Lucas Werneck’s first two covers and stay tuned for more details in the months ahead.

WHAT IF…CYCLOPS HAD STAYED WITH MADELYNE PRYOR?
Imagine a world where Madelyne Pryor, the Goblin Queen, had survived the Inferno. What would have happened if Cyclops had saved her soul. What would have happened if he and Maddie had raised their son, Nathan Summers? What would that world look like? And why would that be the most terrible thing to happen to mutantdom and Earth itself?

WHAT IF…THOR GOT SPIDER-MAN’S SYMBIOTE SUIT?
Amid the chaos, there comes a costume – but not to the hero you know! Legend has it that bonding with the symbiote suit made Thor mightier still. But what shadows lurking in the Ten Realms would take interest in such a powerful pairing?
