[QUOTE=CaptainUniverse;6280087]I've always thought Wanda looked more like Madelyn Joyce-Frank than she did Magda Eisenhardt (it felt more like they had retconned Magda into looking like Wanda):

Pretty sure Bryne just made Magda look like Wanda since Magneto and Quicksilver already looked like each other.

Magda's twins are Hellion and his brother. Glowing kid? Hellion's telekinetic aura. Age discrepancy? Time travel, an X-Men staple. Hellion's powers? Kinetic in nature, like Magneto's. Hellion's pre-existing parents? Fake, and the kids were given to the Kellers by Kingmaker.
It all comes together.

*checks time stamp on Rift's post like a doctor calling TOD on Grey's Anatomy*
Okay let's call it. Time of Hellion for this thread is 9:51 am.

Let this be a lesson to everyone. Every moment without Hellion is something I allow you to have, and I can take it all away whenever I choose.
But yeah, I've been enjoying this thread for a while. The Magda mess is something I've been interesting for a while, and it just gets messier the more time passes.

[QUOTE=Uncanny X-Man;6280264]So I did a little digging and here's what I found:
Magda's first appearance was on [URL="https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Avengers_Vol_1_186"]Avengers 186[/URL], released in May 1979, where's she's established as the mother of Wanda and Pietro seeking asylum in Wundagore after fleeing "a husband who had gained strange abilities":

Then basically concurrently in [URL="https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/X-Men_Vol_1_125"]Uncanny X-Men 125[/URL], released in June 1979, Magneto is shown reminiscing about his dead wife for the first time and her name is also given as Magda. She's clearly the same woman who had appeared on Avengers one month prior!

It seems to me creators (possibly David Michelinie, possibly Chris Claremont, definitely John Byrne) conspired to connect the dots and make Magneto the twins's father YEARS before it was actually revealed in the Vision and Scarlet Witch miniseries. I remember reading the parentage was something of a worst-kept secret at Marvel for a long time prior to the reveal, however the 2 books I mentioned above above are the ones who clearly address it and make it possible.[/QUOTE]
Magneto found out in the Vision/Witch mini, but my recall was that the audience know beforehand.
