Invisible Woman would probably have to retire, as she'd now be a single mother (wasn't she pregnant with Valeria at the time? And of course already had Franklin). Thus, the Fantastic Four would be no more. The X-Men would be history too, as at that point Jean was dead, and Beast, Angel and Iceman were all with the Defenders, thus leaving just Havok and Polaris.

[QUOTE=Photon Torme;4985092]What If Earth had to deal with no one ever returning from Secret War. Several Avengers just gone. Johnny, Reed and Ben just gone. No more Magneto, a whole line up of Xmen gone. No more Doom( Except for Kristin) Mo more Spidey. No more Ultron. How would things evolve. I know there was a story where everyone get stranded on Beyonder planet but we only Eve saw it from the persoective if those who were stuck there.[/QUOTE]
Well Iron man, Hank, or Thor could reform an Avengers (as could a few others)
Xmen would evolve Beast, Iceman and Angel could come home or there are always other mutants
The FF are interesting, Sue could keep it going in any number of forms. A Sue led FF could be interesting. She could even take on a Prof X role and stay with her kids while Reeds money funds a new exploration team.
As for Spidey that changes a lot. Silk could be revealed earlier, or one of the spider woman who are part of the web.

As Punishment for his betrayal, Galactus trapped Silver Surfer on earth but .... WHAT IF... Galactus stripped Silver Surfer of the Powers Cosmic?
Professor X formed the X-men to teach them to better control their powers and to protect the world against evil mutants... but ... WHAT IF... Professor X had brought in more experienced mutants such as Wolverine, Banshee, and Storm to severe as his super human team while Cyclops, Jean, and the rest remained students and trainees? Basically... what if the Giant Sized X-men team had been Professor X's ORIGINAL X-men?

A take on your ideas and the original comics concepts...............
WHAT IF...The Silver Surfer remained loyal to Galactus and fought with Galactus against the Earth?
WHAT IF...Professor X found other mutants to be his first class.....What would have happened to Angel, Cyclops, Beast, Iceman and Marvel Girl?

1.I had an idea about an alternate universe where Xavier wanted his goal to be a bit more militant so he chose different mutants to be his first X-Men: Wolverine (Cyclops), Storm (Jean Grey), Banshee (Angel), Forge (Beast), and Colossus (Iceman)
2. What would happen to the O5:
Cyclops becomes the first teenage recruit causing Wolverine and Xavier to have an argument about the age of recruitment until Storm came up with the idea to turn the team into a school for young mutants instead of just saving mutants and attacking anti-mutant governments/groups.
Jean becomes Wolverine's first teen girl sidekick which makes it emotional when she is possess by the Phoenix.
Beast doesn't transform he has his original look and goes between the academy and his university until he becomes a teacher to the younger mutants.
Iceman joins the New Mutants.
Angel is forced by his father to join the Hellfire Club until he sees their true nature and joins the X-Men.
More What-If
What if Tony Stark was Ghost Rider?
What if Luke Cage was created by Gamma Radiation?
What if the Illuminati were founded by villains?
What if Ben Grimm was Spider-Man's Uncle Ben?

[QUOTE=pageturner;4985125]As for Spidey that changes a lot. Silk could be revealed earlier, or one of the spider woman who are part of the web.[/QUOTE]Bear in mind Julia Carpenter would be gone as well, meaning she never becomes Madame Web. And none of the symbiotes would ever happen, since Spidey's black suit turned out to be Venom and in this scenario, it was never brought to Earth. So yeah, the only Spiders left would be Jessica Drew, Mattie Franklin, Anya Corazon, and Cindy Moon. Miles is a bad guy if he stays as he was revealed to be in Spider-Men II, and both Scarlet Spiders never exist. With no Venom either (meaning Flash Thompson never becomes a superhero) all the male spider folks would be gone.

[QUOTE=Mr. White;4984941]What If...Nick Fury was still in charge of SHIELD when the Super Human Registration Act was passed?[/QUOTE]
I'd also wonder if Nick Fury classic wasn't ousted from S.H.E.I.L.D. after [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]Secret War[/COLOR][/B], how'd it affect [B][COLOR="#DAA520"]Planet Hulk [/COLOR][/B] Maria Hill and the Illuminatti had got together to trick Banner onto the spaceship that sent him Sakaar using a Nick Fury LMD to talk Bruce into getting on the ship. Would Nick have even considered the option of banishing the Hulk due to political pressure after a rampage the Hulk went on. Which happened while Hulk was trying to help S.H.I.E.L.D. with a crisis they enlisted him to deal with. Or would Fury be able to call off the dogs so the events of [B][COLOR="#DAA520"]PLANET HULK[/COLOR][/B], [B][COLOR="#006400"]WORLD WAR HULK [/COLOR][/B] wouldn't have occurred. Not too mention General Ross becoming Red Hulk, or even Betty being resurrected as Red She-Hulk. And if Civil War had still had happened, where would be Hulk's place in it ?
[I]What If ?..Hawkeye carried on for Captain America ?[/I] In the [B]Fallen Son :Captain America[/B] one-shot in the aftermath of Cap's assassination. Hawkeye popped up after being seemingly killed in the course of [B][COLOR="#AFEEEE"]AVENGERS:Disassembled[/COLOR][/B]. After being vetted as the real deal by S.H.I.E.L.D. and Iron Man. Stark approached Clint Barton with the offer of becoming the new Captain America. He briefly tried it out. But when encountering the Young Avengers, Clint felt ashamed, and quit after returning the shield, outfit to Tony. It would've been interesting to see had Barton had decided to carry on being Cap. But see if he'd chafe under Tony and S.H.I.E.L.D.'s command. Leave and go renegade, or try keep things stable with Tony and the organization.
[I]What If ?...Hank Pym's First Wife Hadn't Been Killed ?[/I] His first wife, a defector from communist Hungry, had been kidnapped and killed by agents of communist regime. When Hank ,and his wife, Maria, thought that her being an American citizen would protect her from the despotic regime when the couple foolishly decided to visit Hungry. Her death drove him to perfect the Pym Particles, and launch his super-hero career. If nothing had happened on their visit to his wife's homeland, or they decided to go to Hawaii instead. Would he still end up creating the Pym Particles still becoming a superhero, having Maria become the Wasp instead ?

I think that would have only heightened the perception (and fear) that Xavier was training soldiers and building a mutant army, and not just educating young mutants on their powers. Given the paranoia of the 1960s, that would have raised the mutant hysteria to Defcon 1.

What if? Civil War 3: No More Heroes!!
Mankind, fed up with world ending threats (and big events), turns on the powered heroes (mutants/aliens/bit by magic or radioactive animals).
With Hawkeye/Fury/Doom or whoever in Nightwing Role from New Order.
Wouldn't this be inevitable. All countries turn on them. Hero and villain alike.

[I][SIZE=2]What if:[/SIZE][/I] [FONT=Arial Black][SIZE=4][I][SIZE=5][COLOR="#800000"][U]Magneto[/U][/COLOR][/SIZE][/I] was a founding avenger. [/SIZE][/FONT]
In this universe magnetos MOM was saved by non other than you guessed it: The Invaders. Cap. Himself pulled Erick out of a death camp.
Seeing Cap, and Namor, and the Skull gave him a [I]Slightly Different[/I] veiw of things even though his mother died soon after... and when LOKI arrives to start trouble via the Hulk.
Mags is in New York. Contending with Asgardians... dealing with hulk, and super scientists he goes on to never do the missile attacks etc etc, because he's there with the avengers, pulls cap out of the Ice himself. (mimicing cap pulling him
out of the hole). Ultimately, forcing the avengers into a position to deal with mutant issues positively from the start. . . Of course there are other forces at play.

Funny enough, that was almost the premise of the recent Marvel 2099 relaunch --- that Doom took over the world by erasing all the superheroes, not just from existence, but from the memories of humanity at large, and what set him off, if I read the flashbacks correctly, was yet another superhero civil war.
