I agree, but if Marvel is going to use her as a plot device, at least they should do it well, now it's worse than before because they only used it as a planetary plot device.
which means that her character was sacrificed and almost destroyed just for being a earth threat lol
The first two letters of S.W.O.R.D. stand for “Sentient World” which of course means something like “worlds with sentient live on them”. They most definitely deal with aliens, unless MARVEL goes through the trouble of changing the meaning of that acronym. Also MARVEL only *just* got the rights to SWORD back due to the Disney Fox merger. I bet they have waited a long time to use SWORD and will use it for what it is meant to be.
However, I am aware that this doesn’t necessarily mean that Wanda has a “Space Adventure”. The connection could just be that they classify the mind stone (that gave or activated her powers) as an “alien artifact” and therefore assume it to be their responsibility to survey Wanda and determine whether she is a threat. I could see a conflict with Doctor Strange – if he is in that series – were he is towards SWORD like “She is a Mage, that’s my area of responsibility”.
I can't agree, I think it's probably too late to convince most people (including most writers) that Wanda is not omnipotent or potentially omnipotent, but at least they should know that HoM Wanda was not the most powerful person in the history of the multiverse. Any limitation on that story helps.
There is a middle ground here, and that is the one that I assumed anyway, which is that Wanda *only* affected the 616 Universe. It’s just that most Mutants live on Earth anyway. Consequently, restoring the mutant population by Wanda and Hope mainly affected just Earth.
The TAROT #4, is there an Amalgam of Scarlet Witch and Black Widow??? I once said I want more stories with both of them, but that’s not how I meant it . Sounds like a fun Idea, I only thought we already have an Amalgam-Universe with Marvel Characters.
Or is this Scarlet Witch / Doctor Strange ????
“EMPYRE IS COMING!”
As a whole is rather confusing to me.
At first, I thought this is just a reprint (there are many this time, like the Giant Sized Avengers where Wanda and Vision marry).
But this is… a recap?
A re-visit, that adds more details??
Love is for souls, not bodies.
