    I already liked Wanda from the Lee Avengers & X-Men issues, but it was the Vision & Scarlet witch mini that hooked me. Then I read Nights of Wundagore and cow midwives entered her backstory, and I...
  2. Wait, so how fast was Wanda going then?? And on...

    Wait, so how fast was Wanda going then?? And on mountain roads too! Wanda being a speed demon is my new headcanon.
  3. That's pretty much my view. I don't mind Wanda...

    That's pretty much my view. I don't mind Wanda not being a mutant; it doesn't change her core character if that aspect is removed. But I would prefer her be a mutant, or else it makes a lot of her...
  4. Yeah, that's a big part of it. WandaVision worked...

    Yeah, that's a big part of it. WandaVision worked because we were asked to step into Wanda's shoes, whereas the other works distanced the character from the audience; they just wanted us to fear her....
  5. Is the hysterical woman trope that HoM and MOM...

    Is the hysterical woman trope that HoM and MOM tapped into supposed to be deep? I just found it misogynistic, and I think I should we should be voicing that criticism instead of pretending that...
  6. Well, I didn't say explore her Judaism (since she...

    Well, I didn't say explore her Judaism (since she now has no Jewish roots at all, as far as we know), just Judaism in general. I just think, if it were something that a writer wanted to pursue, it...
  7. I wouldn't mind if it never gets brought up...

    I wouldn't mind if it never gets brought up again. I rather liked the original origin of her name, where it was just something an angry mob called her and so she was like "yeah, I am a scarlet witch...
  8. If any writer really wanted to have Wanda explore...

    If any writer really wanted to have Wanda explore Judiasm, I think doing so through Billy would make more sense than connecting it to Magneto too much, since she isn't even related to Mags anymore....
  9. FINALLY their friendship is acknowledged. It's...

    FINALLY their friendship is acknowledged. It's not Wanda in an on-going, but well, I'll take whatever crumbs we can get :(

    I like the artist using sunglasses to reference her tiara. Very clever.

    I think it looks like one of those paper crowns you get in a christmas cracker lol
  11. I wish colorists would let her wear non-red...

    I wish colorists would let her wear non-red colours sometimes. I know she's the Scarlet Witch, but she's donning like 4 different shades of red there. A bit overkill lol
  12. I think it looks like Adriana Lima. I assume the...

    I think it looks like Adriana Lima. I assume the artist referenced her face.
  13. I'm more into the red-black colour scheme myself....

    I'm more into the red-black colour scheme myself. But really, I'm just a super fan of the current costume, and I'll be really bummed if/when she gets a new design. Unless it's also by Wada ofc!

  14. That's also why I'm not really interested in her...

    That's also why I'm not really interested in her being in the X-books. Almost her entire history is with the Avengers. On the X-side, no matter how well written her stories are, it will feel like...
  15. Mutant God.

    Mutant God.
  16. You sure about that? I've come across a lot of...

    You sure about that? I've come across a lot of comments awfully invested in her turning herself in for what she did in WandaVision. I can't imagine they've changed their minds after MoM.

    It will...
  17. I've been thinking about otherism as a recurring...

    I've been thinking about otherism as a recurring theme in Wanda's past stories. It's central to her backstory, where angry villagers attacked her & her family out of superstitious fear, and her...
  18. The author either actually read the comics they...

    The author either actually read the comics they were writing about or was well-researched. Either way, I'm pleasantly surprised. What we usually see in articles and vids about Wanda is just whatever...
  19. For Wanda, it might be because she's been in some...

    For Wanda, it might be because she's been in some cartoons.
  20. It's interesting viewing the Wanda & Vision...

    It's interesting viewing the Wanda & Vision romance through a queer lens. I never thought about it like that before. In some ways it works better than the originally intended racial metaphor, since...

    So dramatic lol. All she had to do was add a "danger's afoot!" in there.
  22. I guess it's a visual thing, so we can...

    I guess it's a visual thing, so we can immediately identify which Wanda is on screen. It also provides opportunities for fake-outs (i.e. you think it's Wanda, but it's actually alt-Wanda!). But if...
  23. Why did they make her hair both orange and brown...

    Why did they make her hair both orange and brown in this movie? I can understand if they want to keep her hair a lighter shade, because blonde actors seem to hate darkening their hair, but then they...

    Not anymore, obviously. I'm just pointing out the angle the argument coming from.
  25. The argument would be premised in ethnicity, not...

    The argument would be premised in ethnicity, not religion.

    There's a case to be made for casting a Jewish actor for Magneto because of his Holocaust background. But, in general, (Ashkenazi)...
