What If Flashpoint Affected The Marvel Cinematic Universe

If you have ever wondered what would happen if the Marvel and DC Universes swapped stories, then you have got to check out Alex Luthor’s latest Youtube video. The creator has managed to imagine a world on film which asks what would happen if the Marvel Cinematic Universe had its own Flashpoint a la The Flash - and the results are clearly disastrous.

Not familiar with the Flashpoint storyline? Well, you should know it is one of the Flash's most iconic pursuits. The whole series kicked off when Barry Allen choose to use the speed force and travel back in in time to save his mother from a horrible death. By doing so, Barry created an alternate timeline where things were very different from his home world. In the DC Universe, groups like the Justice League were fundamentally changed by the split-second decision, and it was up to Barry to resolve the timeline before things got out of hand.

In Alex Luthor's video, that same responsibility falls onto Captain America's shoulders after his world is turned upside-down by Scarlet Witch. If you want to check out in-depth explanation of the story, check through the following sides for commentary from the creator itself.
