    But that wouldn’t be appealing to superhero readers.
    THAT would be more realistic, but I think superhero fans wouldn't have the patience for any of that (I wouldn't mind it though). I'm partial to systematized magic because I want to know how it works, what are its limitations, where does it come from, etc. I find it easier for readers AND viewers to suspend their disbelief if the magic, quite simply, makes sense. But I also like the wonder, mystery and confusion of magic as well. I guess I'm a pretty big hypocrite on these matters. I like grounded, realistic stories and characters, but I also really enjoy weird and fantastical tales and people too.

    That's great. I just remember her for having funny looking pants. That could be the source of many jokes though. I'm also looking forward to Clea's debut in the MCU. And being the chauvinist pig that I am, I hope she's really hot too!

    Do not let Clea hear you or she might turn you into a rabbit!

    In real life, a woman looking like Clea would look hot in those Faltine Pants.

    It could work if Clea is hot. I mean, I never thought in a MILLION years the MCU could even pull off an ACCEPTABLE Scarlet Witch costume, but they totally surprised me there. Hopefully, Clea gets a good one too.

    I wanna see more of that kind of reality warping in the MCU. As I said before, I LOVE Wanda's new costume. There's no reason why Disney can't give Clea a great one too.

    I remember Clea having at one very short solo adventure for the first time; like 5 pages. She takes down another magic user, fairly easy. This may be from that story?
    70s for sure.

    Well, reading this thread has been fun. I think I have a better grip on the magic side of Marvel now. Prior to that I was only aware of the magic side of the MU only in broad strokes.

    When rumors first swirled around Tilda Swinton in Dr Strange I thought she was going to play Clea.

    Never a good Idea to anger the once and future ruler of the Dark dimension
