I always thought that a good topic for a "What If?" backup would have been
"What If Everyone in New York City Had Super Powers?". Imagine a crowded city
street when a supervillain suddenly appears to rob a bank. Everyone runs off
to find a phone booth, closet or abandoned alley to change clothes, and 200
super heroes then converge on the villain. I figure that should be the
situation in Marvel's NYC within a few years.
