The Watcher: Captain Peggy Carter, a warrior out of her own time. But then, she's used to that. The super soldier from World War II who thrust herself into the future, saving her world, but leaving behind the love of her life. It was a loss that could have consumed her, but instead, it fueled her to become a hero for all time and times.

Season Two Review
The second season of Marvel's " What If" comes to a conclusion with an interesting, if slightly underwhelming finale. One the whole, this second season has been good, but perhaps not as strong as the first.
Captain Carter (Hayley Atwell) meets up with her multiversal Avenger friend Dr. Strange Supreme (Benedict Cumberbatch) who askes her for help. He's been collating the multiversal destroying threats but cannot subdue Kahhori (Devery Jacobs) from her universe. Carter agrees to help, but soon comes to realise that it is not Kahhori that in the danger, but Strange himself, who has arrived at an even more despicable plan to assuage his grief.
My criticism of this seasons overlying story is that it feels a bit more thrown together than the one in the first season. Beyond seeing Strange a couple of times, there wasn't really much set up to this one in the last few episodes. This episode too feels a bit thrown together around a few interesting ideas, namely the battles between Strange Supreme and Captain Infinity, as Carter becomes. A throw everything at the wall and see what sticks approach. That central fight - reintroduces us to almost all the characters we've ever seen in "What If", though some of them, such as Infinity Killmonger Black Panther noticeably and obviously don't speak - as presumably Michael B Jordan wasn't interested or available for such a small role.
It looks really impressive, the vocal performances are good (I feel like Cumberbatch puts more into playing the role in animation than he does in live action, or maybe the character has just gone to a more interesting place here).
It just feels less well thought out than in the first season, so much so I think I'd have preferred not to have a season story and just let the episodes live as individual storylines. I'll watch season three, but I'd like a bit more invention and maybe some more genuine "what if's" and not just other stories.
