    I do want to say that I wonder how you would’ve reacted to the original ending where Metalder and the Robot Dog would’ve sacrificed themselves to end God Nero’s by blowing him up with a bazoka, causing he Ghost Bank to explode and take them with it while also killing he remaining forces.

    If they fully actually fleshed out the purpose of why Neros did not want anyone know who he was originally, I'm sure it would have been fine. That is one of my problems though. They go through the entire series of him talking about how no one must know who he is, but nothing happened when they did. It was just like, "Oh, that's who he is... why do I care?" Plus, I didn't like how Top Gunder could get his face blown off and be fine, but then one little sword cut kills him.

Neros saying that he was going to "Shrowd himself in the Darkness of the Night" was even a hint to this. In fact the novelization even hints it at the end. But the cancelation effected those plans.

    As comics Marvelite one would say I'm jaded. MCU Stark stole the Hank Pym thunder for Ultron and now is shaped into a multiversal Doctor Doom. Not having the rights to Spider-Man Disney should've used the OG Ant-Man and Wasp to pave the way for Iron Man. MCU is backwards. However, this opens a window for a Time Variance Agency film with an all stars cast of Captain Carter, Sylvie, Iron Lad, Miguel O'Hara, Two Gun Kid and Askani.

    Not the character's fault per se. The writing team didn't hide the aim to push Peggy in What If so it came off as favoritism. In reality Peggy is a likeable and popular hero as the non magic Captain Britain. It'd be interesting to see Peggy's variant team up with Brian Braddock the proper Captain Britain of 616.
