Like seriously, he didn't want to give a solid reason nor did he give an out for wanda, her past and future got slipped apart by this in a bad way.
I am not asking for anyone to be a slave of continuity, there is a middle ground between being a slave and being a total irresponsible continuity butcher.
there are details that can be altered or ignored, but i am talking about wanda doing fine in a team she called home and dealing with her trauma long ago, then suddenly bendis randomly decided she was the sacrifice to his new reign of avengers, and he just casually throw away chaos magic, a well-establishd power system by busiek like it's trash and replace it with vague "with great insanity comes great power" bs.
and he let doctor strange of all people do the explanation about why wanda was nuts, the man who was directly involved in the birth of wanda's children, pretend he was never there.
It's just ridiculous. It's like if game of throne jumping right into red wedding in season one when robb became the king in the north, no build-up, no reason, just for shock value.
If he just want to have a new take on characters, be my guest, but what he did is blowing them up like fire works to cheer up whatever he was actually doing.
