Good News: Comic Scarlet Witch Is Still A Hero

[Peter Paltridge]

I’ve mouthed off before about Sam Raimi throwing the character of Scarlet Witch under the bus in Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness. Not only does Wanda Maximoff suddenly turning murderous and crazy clash with all previous cinematic portrayals of her, the character is now damaged so badly it makes all future potential storylines impossible (assuming she even lived). My biggest problem is the fact that the MCU versions of these characters are the ones Average Joes will be most familiar with.

She is going to have a solo movie so I am sure that MCU will try to fix her.

I have not been keeping up with the Marvel Universe so this all new news to me. But I am all for supporting female heroes and super heroes. So Scarlet Witch gets 2 thumbs up from me.
