List of What If Issues - Volume Six (2007)

Volume Six (2007)

The sixth series of What If? continued the theme of the previous series of examining possible alternatives for major storylines.

  • What If: Planet Hulk
    • What if Caiera the Oldstrong had survived the destruction on Sakaar instead of Hulk?
    • What if Hulk had landed on the planet the Illuminati had intended for him?
    • What if Hulk had reverted back to Bruce Banner when he crashed on Sakaar?
  • What If: Annihilation
    • What if the Annihilation Wave reached Earth?
  • What If: X-Men: Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire
    • What if Vulcan absorbed the energies of the M'Kraan Crystal and became Phoenix?
  • What If: Civil War
    • What if Captain America led all the heroes against the Registration Act?
    • What if Iron Man lost the Civil War?
  • What If: Spider-Man vs. Wolverine
    • What if Spider-Man had remained in 1980s Russia after an accidental death?

The series was also due to feature What If?: The New Fantastic Four, which featured the "original" New Fantastic Four with Spider-Man, Wolverine, Ghost Rider, and Hulk teaming up, as seen in Fantastic Four #347-349 and 374. This story was halted due to the passing of artist Mike Wieringo, and was released as a 48-Page Special as a tribute in June 2008. All the issues of this run, aside from the New Fantastic Four, were later collected into a trade paperback simply entitled "What If? Civil War". The version of the "New" Fantastic Four is also erroneous, as the Ghost Rider of that time period had been Danny Ketch, not Johnny Blaze, who appears in the issue instead for unexplained reasons (in reality, Wieringo had drawn the wrong Ghost Rider in his initial pages by mistake and it was not noticed until after his death).

Famous quotes containing the word volume:

    I dare say I am compelled, unconsciously compelled, now to write volume after volume, as in past years I was compelled to go to sea, voyage after voyage. Leaves must follow upon each other as leagues used to follow in the days gone by, on and on to the appointed end, which, being Truth itself, is One—one for all men and for all occupations.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
