Is turn a bet here? villain can sometimes have KK/AA here a small percentage i feel but i believe his range is weighted more 88+ that will barrel assuming hero missed with AKx
River: ($1.72) Q♦ (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $3.38 (all-in),
I called turn expecting to have to face a river bet - hero holds Qc so is this an easy call?

Not easy at all, this line/sizing/formation is very underbluffed, but I think pool finds slowplays with AA and KK preflop at some frequency these days, and I can see pool making the polarization error of value betting river with AA/KK or the dominated sets (77 and 55), so I'd call.
Yeah, call

Yeah I do see slow played AA/KK sometimes so always assign a small % to ranges.
I think given my line how often are villains really turning their hands effectively into bluffs here? I’d have to filter out my DB for this specific spot but I’m sure more often than not villains are going to showdown with their 88+? Or at least betting a size that would encourage a crying call from me?
I didn’t snap call my any means, but chose to call due to holding Qc and was kinda surprised at what villain showed up with.
Well, assuming villain understands we're supposed to not always 4bet AKo pre, the natural bluff is AK with the club. Pretty intuitive flop call vs the small cbet, bet OTT after being checked to and river bluff. Although the data I have saying this is underbluffed is for all textures EP vs SB, I do think in this particular case the issue is not them having difficulty finding the bluffs, but them having the knowledge and restraint to not value bet 77, 55 (especially) or AA.
What did he have?

Thanks for the reply.
Villain had 77 so I guess I’m running good [emoji1317]
