Strange Supreme is the key to defeating Ultron in Marvel’s What If…?, but how powerful is he compared to the robot with all the Infinity Stones?
Warning! Spoiler ahead for Marvel’s What If…? episode 8.
In Marvel’s What If…?, how powerful is Evil Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) compared to Ultron (Ross Marquand) with all the Infinity Stones? In the penultimate episode of the Disney+ animated series, the corrupted robot villain went far and beyond his initial nefarious plan in the main universe in Avengers: Age of Ultron. After wiping Earth and its universe out of its living creatures, Ultron has set his sights on conquering the multiverse, forcing the multiverse’s Watcher (Jeffrey Wright) to break his oath and finally intervene.
The resolution to the ongoing story will more likely be wrapped up in the What If…? season 1 finale, which will see the introduction of the Guardians of the Multiverse. Composed of various incarnations of familiar MCU heroes, it appears as if the team’s leader will be Evil Doctor Strange, a.k.a. Strange Supreme following his reabsorption of his good half. This version of the sorcerer was first introduced back in episode 4, “What If… Doctor Strange Lost His Heart Instead of His Hands?.” Unable to accept Christine Palmer’s (Rachel McAdams) death in his universe led to its destruction after he meddled with magic far behind the natural laws of the multiverse.
