The second season of ‘What If…?‘ has concluded and is now streaming on Disney+. The finale, titled ‘What If… Strange Supreme Intervened?,’ features Doctor Strange Supreme, Captain Carter, and Kahhori as the main characters. Read our review.
Why do Doctor Strange Supreme and Captain Carter Fight?
Doctor Strange Supreme seeks Captain Carter’s assistance in capturing an escaped variant. However, as the story unfolds, it is revealed that Strange has been capturing beings from various universes to feed to the Forge, aiming to resurrect his destroyed universe in an attempt to save Christine Palmer. Carter’s efforts to stop Strange lead to a confrontation as she uncovers his true intentions.
In the finale, Captain Carter, assisted by imprisoned variants and using Black Panther Killmonger’s Infinity Armor, confronts Doctor Strange Supreme at the Forge. As Strange is taken over by his demonic self, Carter manages to separate him from his evil counterpart.
In the end, Strange sacrifices both himself and his demonic self to the Forge. The Watcher intervenes, guiding the characters to their separate fates and finally transporting Kahhori back to her universe. The resolution leaves a restored universe for Doctor Strange but without his rebirth.
What If…? is based on the Multiverse Saga, in which the heroes appear from various universes. The first season ended with episode 9, “What If… The Watcher Broke His Oath?” The Watcher formed the “Guardians of the Multiverse” heroes, featuring Captain Carter, Star-Lord T’Challa, Strange Supreme, Killmonger, Party Thor, and Black Widow. The team battles the Age of Ultron to save the multiverse. The show was created by A. C. Bradley for Disney+.
