‘What if…?’ Season 2: Upcoming Storyline!
At the end of the first season of Marvel’s What If…? Looking at the threat posed by Ultron-Vision to the Multiverse, Uatu the Watcher broke his pledge to never interfere in the matters of the cosmos. After losing a battle with Ultron-Vision, Uatu gathered a team of the hero from across multiple realities, which ultimately defeated and captured Ultron-Vision.
