"HEX Be a Lady!" Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff Appreciation 2021

[Spiderfan001]

I don't prefer AUs because Wanda never survives them.

I mean if she did that they wouldn't get to write a full story,
that or severely nerf her

Most versions of comics Wanda aren't particularly powerful. They don't use her because they don't want to use her, not because she needs to be nerfed more than anyone else with similar powers.

Ironically the House of M Wanda is closer to an AU version in terms of her power level, since she was never that powerful before and hasn't been since.

Dying in an alternate-reality comic (she's died in a lot of alternate-reality comics) and maybe dying in an X-Men comic aren't really "featured."

Hopefully Darkhold will be better, but it's not clear how much of a role she'll even have in it considering that the individual issues will likely focus on other characters.

We still need her with an actual role in a comic that "counts" and we haven't had that since 2019. Which, and I know I beat this drum a lot, is exactly the opposite of what I would have expected: it seems like when the MCU started pushing her more, the comics reacted by becoming more reluctant to use her. Weird.

Yeah, it took a literal "Deathless" universe to keep her alive.(Cancerverse) But she is kinda dead after helping Vision sabotaging the Many-Angled Ones.(Not mad about this since she gets to be hero even in a universe fucked up by Elderitch beings.)
Another AU where she is still kicking is the "With an Iron fist" AU in Exiles where she lives a hermit's life with Stephen and Simon.

I don't even buy needing to nerf her anyway. There are alt versions of all kinds of incredibly powerful characters that don't die off almost immediately.

I do want to see a more powerful AU Wanda, just so when Magneto is again mumbling about how he has to kill/hurt her for the greater good she will just wipe the floor with him instead. Then she can fuck off to play chess with Chthon or something if the writers don't want her.

Yeah, there's a teaser of an evil/corrupted/monster-like Vision. So it looks like she dies for the sake of his arc... Ironic.

Magneto and Xavier are denying Mystique to be with Destiny (her partner) as they won't allow her to be ressurected, why should Magneto be given the opportunity of happy families especially with Wanda, after her "No More Mutants".
There would be plenty of mutants willing to kill Wanda with Mystique at the forefront.
I don't think Magneto has psychic powers, if so when did this occur ?.

He does have limited psychic powers, he showed them early on in the X-men comics, but rarely used them since. I think it was John Byrne's X-Men The Hidden years that last brought them up.

Magneto has reused some of Wanda's parts, along with some other new parts, and has reconstructed another Wanda, and renamed her New Wanda

[Oberon]

I've known this for years, a long time, but it is in most wikis about him. Certainly not Jean or Xavier levels. He can resist some telepathy and also can 'reach' out with his mind. Not a super mentalist like the others.

[Oberon]

Her legs look rather muscular or men-like.

Just got my first vaccine jab.

I'm gonna get mine tomorrow

Congrats! I only had mild side effects for a couple hours.

She looks like Moira Rose, and I’m loving her for it.

I don't like that marvel legends Wanda to black not her color.

A comic journalist said this about the x-factor issue that is coming tomorrow in which people were theorising that the person who is dying is Wanda (since this Is connectted with the Trial of Magneto)
spoilers:

Without breaking the embargo: Please read X-Factor tomorrow with discretion. It contains themes of racial and sexual violence and it takes place all very quickly. This includes visual representations- one in particular that was very disturbing, at least for me.

end of spoilers

spoilers:

I was set to review the issue for tomorrow but have decided not to, as, after talking with a few folks (thank you to everyone for that), it was agreed that it was not my place to talk with authority about racialised sexual violence. But I did want to put this warning out.

Jesus, sounds like Marvel stepped in tone deafness again.
