The Great Question of the Ages

Marvel Comics has never been afraid to ask the tough questions, questions like:

• What if exposure to radiation didn't lead to hair loss, thyroid damage, reduced lymphocyte count, nausea, diarrhea, sterility, cancer, and/or death, but rather made people into giant green rampaging monsters or wisecracking acrobats able to stick to walls?
• Could a short, hairy Canadian with a history of violent behavior become a Hollywood sex symbol?
• Is there anything more ass-kicking than this cover?¹
  

And in the fall of 1991, they answered the question on all of our minds:

Alternate timeline Hitler gets a hot lead injection in What if..? (volume II) #28, written by George Caragonne, with pencils by Ron Wilson and inks by Ralph Cabrera.

Olaf found this, which I believe makes him an honorary U.S. citizen by now, whether he likes it or not.²
