Indexer Notes

- Creators—The Marvel movies and TV are weird about listing creators. For the entire first season, Jack Kirby and Joe Simon are the only credited creators, specifically for Captain America. And Roy Thomas, possibly as the instigator of the What If . . . ? comic book, is recognized for his significant contribution to the series. Some others are thanked but not explicitly credited for creating characters. We may later go through the episodes and add those people as uncredited creators.
