Marvel Studios’ animated series What Ifâ¦? is episodic and disconnected by design. The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s infinite multiverse almost demands the episodes stand alone. However, a key element of the MCU is its ability to thread individual stories into a larger tapestry. “What Ifâ¦Howard the Duck Got Hitched?” continues the story of two variants from a Season 1 episode and a very important egg. Back Season 1, Episode 7, “What Ifâ¦Thor Were an Only Child?” introduces the variant Howard the Duck and Darcy Lewis during Party Thor’s rager in Las Vegas. Their interactions were basically a throwaway gag. In the first scene, Howard invited Darcy to go with him for “half-price nachos,” and she makes it clear “it’s not a date.”The next time the two see each other, Howard calls her “Mrs. The Duck,” implying they were married during a night of drunken partying. This episode picks up that story sometime later, as Howard and Darcy the Duck are in the hospital for the birth of their first child. As she’s a human being and he is a space-duck, their child isn’t exactly “born.” They are given an egg that will presumably hatch with time. The rest of this episode follows their madcap adventures trying to protect this hybrid offspring from MCU threats as varied as the Dark Elves and the Grandmaster’s omelette bar.What makes this episode of What Ifâ¦? work so well is how straight the premise is played. While viewers are surely pondering just how the union of an Earth woman and a space duck produced an egg or how their consummation would even work, it seems the rest of the galaxy is aware of this unique outcome. More importantly, they treat it as seriously as they would, not as a self-aware joke. Because of the planetary convergence (a central plot point in Thor: The Dark World), the Ducks’ hybrid child is believed to be a being of extraordinary power.
