[Daedra]

it's that Starfox above Wanda? It's like Marvel never used him again

Ins't he thanos brother or something

Yeah at the time he was a full time member of the avengers

He had some kind of "influencing" power didn't he?

He was quite durable, virtually immortal, smart, could fly, had super strength, speed and the ability to psionically stimulate pleasure centers in people’s brains

Yeah, that's what I mean. He tried it on Thanos during Infinity War I think, but it failed.

Maybe that's why he's not around. Because that power could come off as creepy, especially in modern times

I was there, it wasn’t as creepy as it sounds and when it comes to avoiding unnecessary violence it had its uses

True. In this case it didn't. I'm thinking more in hypotheticals

Killer comic! Great Heroines, great artwork and lots of fighting, lol.

Wanda vs Enchantress, which I always loved! Although very short for a fight, we do get Wanda's rare (and first) "Hex Sphere" that really was a sphere.

Around that time I also read the "Vision and the Scarlet Witch" issue with Amora, where sadly Wanda and Amora don't get to fight for much longer.

One thing I like is that until very recently when her power levels were defined upwards, there was no way Wanda, with her mutant hex power augmented by a few magic tricks, should be able to hold her own against an Asgardian demi-goddess like the Enchantress, but she always does. She's very resourceful in using her power.

.........To think that they were mother and daughter in the heroes reborn universe

But only for the first few issues. When they changed writers the new writer explained that the Enchantress was lying, I don't really know why.

Come to think of it that was the first time Wanda was portrayed as an actual sorceress with magic powers, rather than a mutant who knew some sorcery. Just a year later we would get "chaos magic" in the main universe and now both the comics and MCU versions of Wanda are full-fledged magic users.

Of course Wanda wouldn’t be Wanda without the parentage musical chair

Wasn't it revealed they weren't?

[Daedra]

Yes but they were....until they weren’t

Ah ok. Seems to be a common theme with her as you poined out!

Wanda's Hex Power was stronger than most people realize and it could side-step magic by altering probabilities. There was no way Enchantress could know just what the Hex would do.

Our Queen of Chaos true origin will be forever shrouded in mystery and uncertainty
