Okay, here’s a hypothetical for you: what if Marvel celebrated 50 years of What If…? What would that be like? Turns out you don’t have to imagine as starting this summer the House of Ideas will publish eight all-new one-shots imagining things like “What if Thor Got Spider-Man’s Symbiote Suit?” or “What If Cyclopes Had Stayed With Madelyne Pryor?” or “What If The Punisher Was Allergic To Picnics?”
Okay, maybe not the last one. But there will be the first two stories, and plenty more, starting in June.
Check out solicits for the first two issues, covers from Lucas Werneck, a full check-list featuring art from Mahmud Asrar and a large question mark, below.

WHAT IF…CYCLOPS HAD STAYED WITH MADELYNE PRYOR?
Imagine a world where Madelyne Pryor, the Goblin Queen, had survived the Inferno. What would have happened if Cyclops had saved her soul. What would have happened if he and Maddie had raised their son, Nathan Summers? What would that world look like? And why would that be the most terrible thing to happen to mutantdom and Earth itself?

WHAT IF…THOR GOT SPIDER-MAN’S SYMBIOTE SUIT?
Amid the chaos, there comes a costume – but not to the hero you know! Legend has it that bonding with the symbiote suit made Thor mightier still. But what shadows lurking in the Ten Realms would take interest in such a powerful pairing?
