Has Comic-con ever done something like this before?

They didn't, that's fan-created.

I wouldn't expect any announcement of Wanda's MCU future at SDCC. All indications are that Feige is just going to make announcements about casting in already-announced movies and shows, and save the new announcements for Disney's own conference, D23, in September. And even then we might not get a Wanda announcement if they haven't decided what her future will be yet.

Oops. Didn't read the whole post. Would have been cool if they did.

I think she'll still be used, I hope her next appearance pretends MoM never happened

It was a social media fan created social campaign to spark fan support to get new Wanda Projects in the works and it went Viral really fast showing their is much support out their for our Wanda.

Like I said in my other post this kind of campaign is Very Good to do, it shows what fans what out in their franchises, these kind of events have sparked change in the past, read my link below for examples of thus and it shows Fiege and the MCU is a Vauled character fans want to see as one of the most more then many and it can spark change in how the corporate structure might consider things.

I don’t know if it will bring anything to SDCC, but it is nothing but good showing support for our Wanda we ourselves here have been clamoring to see for years and give it to Marvel for fans not to take kissing her lying down!

It is good to be holding the Corporate Heads like Fiege and others feet to the fire that they just do what they want and not expect response to it, something similar to this should happen to the Comics devise too.

Fiege has to be careful, yea Mutants and FF are wanted but if they fill their lineups with things that might not be what fans desire and seems to Corporate planned out then you can see more Viral Movements start like this with other branches of the fandom. It shows fans are active and is holding them accountable they just can’t do what they want and not at least spark a debate over it.

One of the biggest problems the MCU might have right now is believing their own hype and just doing anything they feel Benifit corporate aimed and not story, characters or narrative structures, we seen these faults already, recently with changes in lore, character backgrounds and even following their own canon. So the more they know they Just can’t do anything and expect a success, the bed is gonna be for everybody!

Support #Wandacon!

Deadline posted the SDCC line-up and there's nothing for Wanda there, unless she ends up in the animated stuff. Seems like they are saving their reveals for D23 in September for the MCU.

You know, I’m glad Wanda got reddened in the comics. I was busy reading the Moira thread, and I was damn. I have never seen such character assassinations as to what happened to poor Moira. At Wanda’s worst, she was never this crazy or evil.

Moira even acted like she sexually assaulted Mary Jane. This creepy Moira has nothing in common with the original Moira MacTaggert. I think they should have just made a new villain for that.

There’s a reason I’m saying this.

I do think Bendis and Quesada could have been sensitive to the fans who paid to keep Marcel alive and not en masse wipe out all the classic heroes. It’s okay not to like these characters, but if they felt like that don’t work at Marvel. Lol. Let people who like those characters get those jobs.

[gurkle]

The fact that they keep doing this is very depressing. At least in 2004/5 you could say it was a "less enlightened" time (though not really). But here it is 2022 and most creators claim to be more enlightened, and the MCU recycles Avengers Disassembled and X-Men comics turn a smart, strong woman into a psycho for shock value.

Nothing seems to get better, creators just get better at claiming things have got better.

And Moira is actually an X-character lol.
If they are willing to do this to one of their own, god knows what treatment Wanda can get should the editorial/a certain writer feels particularly naughty.
If the general environment isn't getting better, then it's reasonable to call for some healthy separation and boundaries.

I miss the times that when a writer didn't want to write a character, they had them go on a trip or retire for a bit or go onto the reserve list for teams. But unfortunately writers wanting to write characters also usually means they have tons of bad stuff planned for them. And not like the this character goes through some trials and comes out better in the end sort of treatment. It seems to be more like, they've found their plot device.

They have got better at virtue signalling, but not actual change.

Well, Avengers Disassembled and House of M were both by the Avengers writer and editor. Sadly characters are more likely to be trashed by their home franchise. The X-Books may have added to Wanda’s rap sheet in the 2000s but they didn’t create it.
