Indeed, the level of how hard the flexing Pichelli did with her artwork here keeping going to a New Level with each issue, when you think you seen the best of her, she just upgrades it by next Issue, We are truly blessed as Wanda Fans to have this Masterpiece of a Team both Pichelli & her ink team heading this book, we are at classic levels already!
As for the Full page panels, this is like classic Folklore/Questing storytelling out of any high fantasy game or classic folklore tale.
It is like we are be woven a New-Age Folklore and Mythos with this book alone, that the team is trying to create something truly special that will stand out for the test of time while being comparable to the classics we have see in classis Folklore and Fair Tale books as well as High Fantasy Adventure storytelling like in D&D and Warcraft!
Truly we need to Stop to realize just how lucky we are as fans and luck for our Wanda getting something THIS Special for her! ;_;

I am glad you are here PolarIceFire, I always love the highly detailed work & clear love you put into each of you posts with great vibrant colors, it is truly special especially for a book like this we as fans have SO Needed for So Long!
The level of Amazing these issues keep getting in ratings is remarkable, BUT at the same time is not either. We knew if we got the right team and it was a labor of love, Wanda would smash the world with her character and with the characters that mean the most to her.
Seeing the Sisters at something of this level shows they get what needed to be written and what fans have longed to behold.

Indeed, well said, I think that has been some of the greatest things about this book.
It 1st most is about a humanistic approach to storytelling and character development, it is about people and caring for people when they need it the most, that is power storytelling cause you now have a deep human element that matters to many people in the story on a personal level.
Then you put into that context with upping it with the context of Wanda’s biggest care and love in the world, her family and friends with the depth and beauty of character Wanda can show in her action in her heroics, Orlando is truly hitting this out of the park.
Beautiful still, the story is both episodic but has clearly been leading to bigger over-arcing story arcs that will test Wanda Bigger and Deeper with each issue and they bar has already been shattered so majorly, this is truly a special book Indeed!

Ooh, that is interesting & okay, I will. Thank you.
Thank you too, CJ, that's very kind of you to say. Yes, it's been a long wait & we're finally gettin' movement on the fam after all this time, and the troubles that prevented it before. It sure does feel good, now we just need more of it, A LOT MORE!!!
Speaking of that great critical response the series has received,
here's another:I AGREE that this series seems very promising for the HoMagnus Fam's future, so HOPEFULLY we're reading things right, and THIS IS...
JUST THE BEGINNING!!!
Are you also on Reddit? I swear I read a similar opinion to yours on there.
But yeah that's a really good way of going about it. She will help you not getting stomped by giant space robots or stuff like that but more personal problems are still up to the individual to solve. It's also a good explanation for the age-old "why don't all these heroes simply solve every single problem imaginable?"

Definitely really loved getting to see Wanda and Lorna getting some sisterly time together for the first time since All-New X-Factor. If I had to have one complaint when it came to the art though, it’s that Lorna felt a bit too stone faced once the adventure started. Due to her constantly wearing the sunglasses, emotions that would normally be conveyed through the eyes couldn’t be seen and really only in the beginning and at the end in her moments with Wanda did she lower her sunglasses to be more expressive. Not really a big knock against the issue, just a minor nitpick.
That is an interesting topic because it applies to much more than just this specific comic. There are people who complain about how often characters take off their helmets in the MCU for example.
The reason is of course obvious. Actors want to act so seeing their face is preferable. But that is often times contrary to what the actual character would do. There is no in-universe reason to constantly take off your helmet. Especially on a battlefield.
Now Lorna just wanted to wear sunglasses and there is nothing strange about it either. A lot of people wear them but it leads to the problem that you described.
What's the solution for it? I honestly don't know.

I just found out about this issue and I am so hyped! Wanda brought back The Sword in the Star! The mystical blade wielded by the time-traveling Prince Wayfinder that turned him into The Enigma Force, created The Microverse and gave rise to Captain Universe! If anyone has ever read X-23, it goes into the basics about Wayfinder and the Sword but if you guys ever want to know more you'll have to seek out The Micronauts comics.

Oh yeah, it's been around since...the mid-70's, I think? Well...Prince Wayfinder was in a series called The Sword in the Star that was never completed until the writer, Bill Mantlo, incorporated the story elements such as the Sword in the Star and Prince Wayfinder into his Micronauts run as part of the mythology surrounding Arcturus Rann of the Micronauts, Captain Universe and The Enigma Force.
