    Her "kids merchandise" design is really not it lol. I hope they make a new one based on WandaVision/MOM soon.

    I also didn't remember it, it's a bit more subtle in the original artstyle.

    To be fair that art is not doing anyone a favor. Just compare the head of CM with BP. Some wonky proportions going on there.

And I don't see chaos magic changing it more often.

    Her magic making her not a mutant and not Mags kid isn't that far out of possibility. She could have not wanted him being her father that much. I wouldn't hate it. But I feel like now they just need to settle on the Maximoffs and keep it as that. It's the surname they picked. It's the people that raised them. The others thought those were their twins but they were mistaken. That's the end of the Maury episode.
    I wasn't saying it was that bad on the back and forth, just that Chaos magic being what keeps changing her past could start doing that lol.

    Ultimately we should stop focusing on the past, I don't even care about getting an explanation why her past keeps changing, just move forward, specially since they just removed the stain of House of M from Wanda.

    A fandom classic really, saw that more than once, and it actually gets funnier over time lol.

    Schaeffer does indeed credit Mary Livanos for being her 'comic book whisperer' when she was working on the show (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-bS1WEL5Ss&t=469s around the 07:20 mark). Mary is not involved in MoM instead she is working on CM2 and GotGVol3.

    I have no idea what this bodes for Wanda on MoM. The only thing that could give us an idea is how Sylvie was written on the Loki show.

    I guess Sylvie is not too bad, but she is not particularly outstanding as well, and she is kinda used as the excuse to kill Kang and break open the multivese and ****.
    I find it kinda troubling many think it's totally okay to use Wanda's desire to save her kids to villainize her. Like sure, a woman will become unreasonably evil because kids.

    It also doesn't help since it's a prevalent trope in many fictional works where the hysterical mother will go so far to be a danger to both innocent bystanders and her own kids, and the kids being scared of their own mother will have to remind her how wrong she is and she proceed to jump off a cliff to atone for her sins lol. As opposed to those heroic rescuer dad(again Liam Neeson being the prime example) who only ever kill baaaad people and the child always saw the father as a source of comfort and protetction. It's just a disgusting trope everyone kinda want to happen without realizing how shitty it is.

    Again, it's the peak of the mentality of what I call "it's okay for you to eat ****" for my desire for drama.

    MCU standom are the least aware of problematic tropes and some don't seem to care. They also don't care if the character gets buried under this in all forms of media and inaccessible to other fans of those different mediums as a result. They just want to see feats. But it's also up to Marvel Studios to not feed into that for sake of the character and portrayals of women. Toxic fandoms should never have control over story narratives.

    Sadly the studios have a bad habit of listening to them since they are quite vocal. Look at the Rise of Skywalker, tried to appease all the haters of Last Jedi and appeased no-one.

    I'm hoping after WandaVision we can move to more costume-y official Wanda art/costumes.

    Yeah, but at least their costumes look decent. Wanda's wearing her lucky jacket, with her lucky corset, with those kneepads... Her costume dramatically changes every time we see her. Everyone's costume looks like a bit of a modification of a standard one. Now that we know she's a witch, they should streamline it and make it consistent. Her headpiece might be a bit difficult to translation into cartoon forms, but they could use the one she used from that Halloween episode.

    I prefer her costume from WandaVision. I don't like the changes they made for Multiverse of Madness.

    Could be, but since neither the Vision nor Wanda are the sort to splash out on a new (vintage) car just to get a different color, I think a paint job seems likelier.

    Unless there's an untold tale of their MG being totaled, of course.

    But we sent George reference on the MG from the Englehart/Howell series when he drew that issue, so the intent was that it was the same car. Whether Tom Smith didn't get the right reference, or he did and miscolored the car, or he colored it right and the color separators did it wrong (we had serious trouble with the color separators back then), I couldn't tell you because I wasn't privy to any of that part of it.

    But it was the same car in the plot and the b/w art.
