9. What If… Captain Carter Were the First Avenger?
Peggy Carter is a fantastic character, and her relationship with Steve Rogers is one of the most wholesome in the MCU. However, this episode of What If is one of the least entertaining stories in this cinematic universe. It’s essentially the story of Steve Rogers as Captain America as we’ve already seen it, but with Peggy Carter as Captain Carter.
The fight sequences are the only redeeming bit of entertainment in this episode. The fact that What If is animated allows for Captain Carter’s herculean strength to shine through without looking as cheesy as some live-action superhero films and shows tend to. However, this episode falls short of the mark because it retreads too much familiar ground.
