Marvel’s What If…? Episode 9 finally brought the season’s finale with an Avengers: Infinity War-style fight over the Infinity Stones. The show has been teasing the end since before its premiere. Marvel made a separate promo clip in collaboration with Hyundai that hinted that the big baddie of the What If…? series will be an ultimate Ultron variant with Infinity Stones.

The episode is full of references, with characters like T’Challa (Star-Lord), Killmonger, Gamora, Black Widow, Captain Carter, Party Thor and Doctor Strange. Furthermore, What If…? Episode 9 does not shy away from showcasing the extreme power of Doctor Strange Supreme.
