My first thought was Bova lol. Female Chthon/Nightmare?
It's probably a small role like an AI or something.
Yeah I just don't get why they'd go for something else first... WandaVision will be ending in march so they could get at least a liiiittle matching time. Like is Man-Thing really such a high priority? Yikes.
Someone just asked about Darkhold Alpha almost an hour ago on Twitter: Any news on possible release of Darkhold Alpha ?

“Later this year” is all I can say for now.
While it may seem like a minor thing, what makes me most optimistic that there might be future plans for Wanda in the MCU (I mean post Doctor Strange 2) is the she is finally getting a costume. Just that she had three movies in a row the exact same outfit bugged me to no end, and on top of that I found it to be so lame that I wouldn’t even call it a costume and preferred her in street clothes over that.
The only reason I can think of as to why Darkhold was delayed that much is that they changed the direction they wanted to take the story on, so Orlando might've had to rewrite it.

The more cynical reasoning might be that they are pretending to have a book out for WandaVision, and then will quietly cancel it a couple of months after WandaVision. The artist for Darkhold is moving onto other projects.
I am now going to be even more cynical and speculate that if Vision dies/becomes one with the mind stone, at the end of WandaVision, we will find out, most likely in a speech bubble by another character, that Wanda and Jericho have "separated".
The more I look at Wanda's new costume, the more is looks to be like a more elobrate version of her brief AOU costume:
That'd be a waste. I don't think they've been concerned with bringing back Wanda and Vision's relationship. They are hardly interested in even having them in comics. I remember Brevoort saying that they were just done with that and not wanting to revisit it. And I can understand that. Unlike the MCU, that relationship has gone through everything. There probably isn't much new ground to cover.
