it's time to introduce the real Wanda Maximoff. she's been a prisoner of the Toad all this time.

Taking into account that everything that has befallen mutantkind within the past 15 years was a direct result of Wanda having a temper tantrum due to "daddy issues", I would not mind if Wanda face torture and execution after being forced to publicly apologize to all of mutantkind for M Day. Also, have Pietro face justice for his role in M-Day, as well. Otherwise, I'm good with just ignoring them, as I don't keep up with most other characters in the MU outside of mutants and Hulk.
Mutant and Proud
Krakoa FOREVER!!!
justice sounds great on paper. but you'd really just be wasting a character with a great design and powerset who has survived several decades & multiple writers. by all means, punish the hell out of her. but death would just be counterproductive. can we kill Dazzler's sister instead? i mean wtf use is she to anyone?
I guess this post kinda sums up the situation.
On one hand, in the fiction, she should face her crimes.
On the other, outside of that, what relevance she has left is bleeding out. The only times she's been useful is when using her madness as a plot device and having other characters people care about bouncing off of it. And, usually, that's past-tense--even that usefulness has waned. The set-up for DoX might be the last good thing she's a part of.
For the MCU, they made her Jean Grey with an accent, because the comic version just wouldn't cut the mustard. That should've been a pretty clear signal. And, any long-term plan for that version of the character will likely still involve having breakdowns at the great cost of others. Elizabeth Olsen talks about that aspect of her it any chance she gets, which seems like another signal.
All of that said, I might not mind her being decoupled from Quicksilver, but that's a tangent.
Man I can’t wait for Q&S to be retconned back to mutants.
Grateful to Bendis for bringing Jessica Drew out of limbo but man he really messed up Wanda.
Why the sudden up-tick in anti-Wanda threads? Aren't those so three years ago (gosh, reading the old threads and seeing all the banned posters involved in them is often hilarious)?
Oh...wait...nvm. Thanks, Hickman.
Two words: Possession.
And...uh...possession.
Does that make it "four words" instead?

no all the mutants are being brought back to life anyway so it would be pointless.
ALL HAIL THE HADARI YAO, THE OMEGA'S OMEGA, BEYOND OMEGA, THE VOICE OF SOL!!!! NOW AGAIN THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GODDESS OF THE X-MEN AS CLAREMONT INTENDED!!!!!
Maybe Xavier and Moira knew M-Day was necessary so that Krakoa could thrive?
In that case, can you really blame Wanda? Xavier would have actively worked to ensure M-Day happened.
Maybe this suddenly explains why Wanda forgot that she had children and how they disappeared (other than, well, "BEEEEEENDIIIIIIIS!").
