"HERO of The HOPELESS!" The Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff Appreciation 2023!

[gurkle]

Any word on whether or not we’re getting an 11th issue?

Not yet. The first trade paperback came out last week and the 8th issue is this week so I imagine those will factor in.

I wish we had a source to know how well or poorly comics are selling, so we could at least have an idea of what the future might hold. But there's no credible sales figures any more.

Glad to know I’m not the only one. I imagine Wanda either curled up or asleep with a sinister looking book that whispers endless madness while she smiles contentedly.

No I mean the "fall asleep while reading" look, like the book is just covering her face.

No recap or big spoilers but Scarlet Witch #8 was so good. I loved Wandas and Lokis duel of honesty. Some of these statements really made me go "oh damn". I also love the small hints that were sprinkled throughout. spoilers:

Like how Wanda might regret the exact wording of the Last Door soon because it's now established her portal is known throughout the realms and you have now people actively seeking it out.

end of spoilers

And I definitely didn't see that ending coming. Damn. I really thought we had something good going on but alas it looks like it was not meant to be.

That would be cool to see. Wanda asleep doing research

Wanda falling a sleep like that never crossed my mind for some reason, but I’d giggle if a saw it

Three things you’d like to see in future issues....for me:

1) More Quicksilver!
2) A story involving Crystal and Luna.
3) An issue ~ or two! ~ where Wanda goes head to head with the Enchantress.

I just need to see Marya and maybe other Darkhold-related characters before the run ends.

[SilverScarlet]

In #8’s letter column, Steve says a future issue will feature a story where Wanda travels across the Marvel Universe, teaming up with various characters.
Since that doesn’t even remotely sound like the solicitations for either #9 or 10, I think it looks like we’re good to go for 11-15!

[leokearon]

I would love to see Marya, Speed and Luna, the forgotten members of Wanda's family.

[Cruelrain]

Not feeling these three recent issues tbh.

Looks like Pietro is bound to meet up with his sister again





This wip is also a mystery since we have yet to see it.

[the illustrious mr. kenway]

I'm digging the episodic structure of the series. I guess Orlando's pitch for Wanda is a magical superhero mediator and it's working so far for me. I wonder if hexfinder's plan would challenge that angle.

[Devaishwarya]

Same here. It's a satisfying change of pace and scale from what's happening in the Avengers.

[Frontier]

I'm glad Pietro is appearing more.

[Galerion]

Hexfinder is in for a well deserved ass whooping after making it personal like that.
