What If? #3

« What If… the Avengers Had Never Been? »: Instead of going after the Hulk, as in the original Avengers tale, Hank Pym stops everyone and reminds them the team is purely volunteer and no oath was taken. Thor moves on, and Giant-Man realizes his powers are not first class, so he and the Wasp retire to become scientists. That leaves Iron Man alone to face the combined might of Namor and the Hulk, and he builds armor for the Avengers and for Rick Jones. Script by Jim Shooter and Gil Kane, art by Gil Kane and Klaus Janson.
