    I guess #105 doesn't count since the MC-2 Universe expanded on that issue. #114 is one of my favorites that I wish they would follow up as it introduced the next generation of super heroes set in Battleworld from Secret Wars II. #27 is also a favorite. It introduced the children of Namor/Susan Storm and Reed Richards and some other woman.

    I forget the issue number but there was a what if on what if aunt may had been killed instead of Uncle Ben and Uncle Ben had lived. In the story Uncle Ben has Peter tell Jj that he is Spiderman because he wants JJ to see that Spiderman is not a monster. And then Jj son John takes on the Green Goblin when he is superpowered from the space spores.

    Probably a little to on-brand for me, but I always enjoyed the "What if? The Runaways became the Young Avengers" back-ups that were in the 2009 one-shots.
    Continuity, even in a "shared" comics universe is often insignificant if not largely detrimental to the quality of a comic.

    I think that's from the original run in the '70s/'80s. Though it was a strong enough concept that they redid it in the 2000s as a special.

    What if Don Glut had gone on to write Jane Foster with the hammer of Thor instead of writers like Jason Aaron? (What If? #10, August 1978)

    My personal favorite would be What If...? (Vol.2) #26, because it was written by Kurt Busiek.

    spoilers:
    (it would have been interesting to see how much more good in the world Director Logan could have accomplished in this AU reality).
    end of spoilers

    Definitely Mr. & Mrs. Williams (Simon & Wanda) from What If...? (Vol.2) #5

    ...but with a happy ending for the married couple, if possible.

    My first What If. Ironically, it was actually set in the main Marvel universe.
