Marvel's "What If" Episode 6 showed yet another Tony Stark death. Moreover, the easter eggs of the episode make it the most eclectic and diverse installation so far--featuring jokes across the Marvel Cinematic Universe storyline.

The MCU alternative story "What If...?" mixed up stories between Iron Man (Tony Stark) and Erik Killmonger. In quick summary, Stark and Killmonger helped each other, used each other, and killed each other. Killmonger won, taking over Wakanda as its new king in the process.

Voice actors for the episode are Angela Bassett, Andy Serkis, Chadwick Boseman, Danai Gurira, Don Cheadle, Jon Favreau, Michael B. Jordan and Mike Wingert. Characters like Pepper Potts, Shuri, and General Ross are taken over by new actors.

Marvel 'What If' Episode 6 Easter Eggs, Clues, and References

With the chaotic events happening in Episode 6, fans might have missed some exciting clues and references. Screenrant listed some of the best easter eggs spotted on the episode. Warning: spoilers ahead.

"Iron Man" 2008

"What If" Episode 6 started with a scene taken from the first "Iron Man" movie. This is the scene of Tony Stark riding in a military transport with soldiers. Dialogue, gang signs, and the iconic selfie photo were included.

Killmonger in Afghanistan

Killmonger's appearance in the war is not entirely surprising because MCU Killmonger's backstory said he was a highly decorated Navy SEAL officer. "What If" amazingly brought these two histories together in one odd mix.

Killmonger Steals Happy Hogan's Promotion

Happy told Pepper, "that was supposed to be my promotion," a direct reference to the events of "Iron Man 3."

Ten Rings Logo

In the scene where Killmonger proved Obadiah State's crime, a faint image of the Ten Rings logo appeared in the background. This is an easter egg for Marvel's "Shang-Chi & The Legend of the Ten Rings" movie.

Tony Predicts His Death

Tony Stark grossly foreshadowed his death on "Avengers: Endgame." He warned Steve Rogers "time messes back" early in the movie. In "What If" Episode 6, Stark compared himself and Killmonger to Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid. Stark already died, perhaps Killmonger is next.
