If you thought the blockbuster INFINITY event turned the Marvel Universe on its head, you won’t believe what could have happened! Those questions and more will be answered in WHAT IF? INFINITY – a brand-new 5-issue limited series coming in October! Rising star writer Joshua Williamson (Secret Wars: Battleworld, Illuminati) and an assembly of today’s hottest artists – Mike Henderson, Riley Rossmo, Mike Norton, Jason Copland, Goran Suduzka show you just how 2013’s chartbusting INFINITY event could have gone down!

Each issue of WHAT IF? INFINITY explores a twisted take on the Marvel Universe where the Builder War had gone differently. What if Thanos had joined the Avengers to battle back the invading Builders? What if the Avengers lost the war, leaving the Earth vulnerable? What if Norman Osborn gained control of the Infinity Gauntlet, ushering in a new Dark Reign?

Was INFINITY truly the Avengers darkest hour? Find out this October as Williamson and company throw out the rulebook in WHAT IF? INFINITY!

For more information, visit Marvel.com for a full interview with WHAT IF? INFINITY writer Joshua Williamson.

Always intrigued by the what if stories...

P.S. - Just needed to say the Suicide Squad comic con footage has been officially released by WB in HD and it's bone chilling!!!!

How can you have What-if stories if all that remains is one universe?

@mark_stephen: Spawned off possible futures created by events in this one universe?

But these are all set in the past aren't they?

Apparently there is still a multiverse after Secret Wars. Spider-Gwen takes place in it's own universe.

A good writer, good line-up of artists and an okay event as a backdrop, this could be something good.

I hope they'll stray away from the most obvious outcomes for the scenarios presented.

Okay non-canon or not... The issue 4 in particular should be fun to read as long as there's no PIS or WIS involved.

Joshua Williamson: Because they have to get through the Avengers. Really, this issue could be called Guardians of the Galaxy vs. the Avengers. It’s one of my favorite scripts I’ve ever written

After Secret Wars, do we (readers) still care about multiverse continuity? I mean, it's a "What if" story, does it need to spawn its own universe ?

But I guess @justthatkid was joking right ?

What i meant is maybe these stories are just what-if stories and don't take place in an existing universe.

@wowlock: You clearly haven't grasped the idea of What if, if you actually think this to be the case.

Secret wars is canon What if is not. It's an alternative history of MU if things would have gone differently (read badly) for the heroes.

Once you create a story you create a universe.
