You can feel bullied for other people dislking a certain story but I will stay disliking that story and disagreeing with whoever thinking that is the right representation of that character.
And really? First you claim to understand even though all you talked about is one small part of her history and then brush it off as "opinion"?
Didn't you feel the arrogance in "Just someone who understands her" claim?
Why don't you go into Carol's thread and claim you can understand the character from Marcus Immortus story and then call it "opinion" when people feel like disagreeing?

The Busiek run was a mixed blessing for Wanda, there were some awesome moments and probably the best explanation of her powers, but at the same time there was the whole forced relationship with Simon and the fact she wasn't allowed to get a word in half the time without being constantly interrupted
The whole love triangle was a bad idea, and Busiek even admitted he just did it for drama (which to be honest is what love triangles are used for). I would have preferred Wanda and Vision have gotten back together instead of the annoying teasing. Also I never liked Wanda and Simon dating, given the whole West Coast mess.
Well, Byrne started it off pretty bad but I don't find Busiek's take remotely as toxic.
And I wouldn't really want Wanda to immediately get back with Vision, so some time and distraction are fine, also probably I am kinda just indifferent to shippy stuff when it comes to Wanda, I honestly don't mind the drama if the main narrative is good, I think writers are allowed to do this kind of guilty pleasure of their own provided they get their main work done well.
It could leave a legacy that could be interpreted worse by later writers though, given the nature of Marvel comics that is.

I just want new stuff for Wanda in comics, so she moves forward and has a future.
Love is for souls, not bodies.
iirc that was just a fantheory based on the rumor that he wanted to cast Saoirse Ronan (which was probably true but may not have been).
Yeah, my standards are pretty low at this point. It's weird that MCU Wanda is blowing up while comics Wanda is pretty much MIA.
