House of HARKNESS: Agatha Harkness Appreciation 2022

[Thirteen]

Who's that having a very late in life surge in popularity due to a charismatic portrayal in other media?
It was AGATHA, ALL ALONG...

Who is Agatha Harkness?




Thank you WandaVision and Kathryn Hahn for giving her an EMMY award winning theme song too!

SHE DESERVES IT!

Not sure how I feel about the Youthful Agatha flashback design for MIDNIGHT SUNS. As others have mentioned, she looks a bit more like an Eternal than a Witch (maybe she inspired the Eternals fashions!?), but also NO BROOCH! Unless maybe this will give us the origin of the brooch...

There's not much to make this redesign by Luigi Zagaria recognizable as Agatha Harkness vs it being a new character...

She definitely does!

Yeah, I love the "OLD" Agatha, lol, and she should have blonde hair if really made young again.

But this new image with dark hair is quite attractive and may allow for Agatha to do battle with others since her age will not be a factor against it.

After I watched Wandavision I did so much research on Agatha. I was so surprised to learn she was Franklin Richards nanny and Wanda's magical teacher in the comics. That's pretty cool. I wonder if she ever ran into Illyana and her dimension of limbo before?

I enjoyed those old stories where Agatha was governess and magical teacher.

Not one on one to my knowledge; but as someone at Wanda's thread showed, Illyana was at the trial of Carol Danvers which Agatha presided over. Also they could have interacted in Strange Academy.

I always here The Nanny theme tune playing in my head whenever I come across Harkness in comic or tv even before I start thinking about her being a witch. So The Nanny, the First of Her Name is a good title
