That's because while Marvel changed it, they don't think it's important to keep it consistent. I remember Brevoort posting something about that. I think it's important to create differences enough between your characters to recognize them.
I don't like most of all when they make Wanda look like Jean.
Love is for souls, not bodies.
Looks like the wavy hair we saw at the end of wandavision was a last minute decision, as most toys and concept art have straighter hair

Like a Red Dragon, The Phoenix shall Soar in 2024!
Reprints are usually for stuff that's been selling, but out of stock. So that's them being financially smart, if anything. We all saw how House Of M and Avengers Disassembled skyrocketed in sales after WandaVision. Regardless of how some Wanda fans feel about those stories, Marvel is gonna take advantage of what makes them money. We know there are other Wanda stories being reprinted too, so I don't think a big deal.

I've been lurking on this thread for quite a while now, and I must say I do find it odd that none of the posters here have expressed any concerns about how magic could be used in the Multiverse of Madness in ways that can REALLY damage that movie. I mean, I think the use, or should I say misuse, of magic absolutely RUINED Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald and Wonder Woman 1984. People on the Doctor Strange and Loki threads have even mocked the fact that the comic books have used magic as deus ex machinas far too often, but I hear no talk about that on the Wanda threads. I find that strange. I actually agree with Marvel Studios being EXTREMELY careful with how they adapt magical stories into the MCU. I feel it's important that there's rules, limitations and internal consistency in fantasy tales. I actually think MaximoffTrash is the only other poster here that seems to have an understanding about this kind of thing. Am I being totally off-base here?
Wanda's powers have been "whatever the plot requires" since 1964, so I think most people in a Scarlet Witch thread are kind of resigned to a lack of rules, limitations and internal consistency.
Well, Pym particles don't seem to have many rules either, tbh.
But Marvel Studios DID hire a bunch of quantum physicists to help keep the Marvel movies somewhat accurate (ish). Clearly Disney is making sure that the stories in the MCU are as scientifically precise as possible. Like Star Trek. I've heard plenty of technobabble. I think audiences will be FAR likely to accept the Pym Particles because of that. I'm not sure viewers will be so forgiving about magical concepts. Folks on the Loki and Strange threads kinda understand this. People here might think I'm being a big party-pooping killjoy because I want limits and boundaries on the use of magic in the MCU, but I think it's important that they exist. To prevent LAZY WRITING. I've been impressed with how the MCU has handled magic thus far, but Strange 2 is gonna have a lot of magic in it. As I said before, I have my concerns. Not so much for the comic books, but for the movies and shows. Part of the reason I don't post on this thread that much anymore is because I don't think a lot of the posters here even CARE about this kind of thing. I think the Strange thread has been great for my magical education thanks to wonderful folks like Clea and DigiCom. But I don't see a lot of Wanda fans hanging out there, even though she's gonna be in his next movie!
