'...he smiled, apparently amused. “The apocalypse seems to make for strange bedfellows. A Sokovian Baron and a Winter Soldier walk into a bar.”'
Due to the current vastness of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU - the Marvel movies) sometimes it can be difficult to explain where, within the sprawling fandom and its sub-fandoms, fan-created content fits in.
This week's fic is mostly based on the Marvel's What If..? zombies episode, but also reaches into the main continuity, and hoiks out Zemo, dropping him into the zombie-ness so that he can play too.
While Zemo was present in Captain America: Civil War, he really came into his
own in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (TFATWS.) Civil War
has happened in this universe (or at least, the fic author presumes,)
but TFATWS hasn't.

'..."Uh, yup." Richie shrugged. "Just all reconnected this weekend for some good old fashioned sewer clown fighting and murder."'
I love the IT movies.
- That's the modern, 2010s, IT parts 1 & 2.
(Technically the films are IT, and IT: Chapter 2, but you all know what I mean, so expect me just to call them parts 1 & 2 throughout this post.)
I haven't seen the Tim Curry adaptation - though I might get around to it one of these days, purely because Tim Curry.
I also haven't actually read the Stephen King novel because it's one of those 1000+ page behemoths that you have to kind of psych yourself up to tackle, and I'm yet to summon the sufficient energy and desire to do so.
Again, I might get around to it at some point, since I'm a general Stephen King fan.
