>>152859497Surprised Orlando didn't draw more direct comparison between Wanda and Madelyne, there are some interesting similarities between them after all.
>>152859546
>>152859253Partially? It would be completely her fault.
>>152859557
>>152859564She wouldn't be the one tormenting the countless souls for eons though. That's still on Chthon but Wanda should know he's going to perform horrors beyond imagination in that pocket universe.

don't know who decided naming the book with no indications about wanda or scarlet witch was a good idea
>>152860172Yeah its her.
>>152860172Yeah, but I think she was aged up in MacKay’s run and not this. Either way, it barely matters. The Dark Dimension has always been kind of fucky with time and aging, it used to be heavily implied that this kind of stuff is the norm
>>152860393to get people who weren't buying Orlando's Scarlet Witch book to buy the book
>>152860738Yes the Scarlet Witch title wasn't working out
>>152860318These are all nice. That's good.
>>152860076Dormammu, Dormammu, it's always Dormammu. There are other evil wizards making a mess of the multiverse.
>>152859551Wanda at least came out of a uterus.
Thanks for this. I hope this book doesn't end at number ten. I saw the ad for the 1 - 10 trade and I'm just hoping it's a first volume trade ad and they take it to number 20.
>>152859825Turning into a wasp feels like it is more symbolic than it should be.
>>152861355They might relaunch it even if it sells well. There's like five or six different Wanda runs written by Orlando just because the execs keep relaunching the series under a new title.
>>152860065It's Clea! Hi, Clea!
I'm a little disappointed in her cabinet picks. Clea and Somnus are appreciated, and Chthon might as well be mandatory because of how he's tied to Wanda now, but three kids in the lineup is two too many. Speed should be dumped and then a choice should be made between Amethyst and Wiccan.
>>152861001Speed is the token Magically Disabled rep
>>152860174Such is the fate of every post-90s appearance of his.
>>152860010How did she do that? I feel like across all these runs everyone besides Agatha gets one shotted by wanda. Jean didn't feel this OP in the phoenix book
>>152862952It was Oshtar, she's an eldar god, so the same power level as the main villains in Immortal Thor, which probably explains why shewas able to partly defend herself
>>152861001What has Mordo been up to, or Dr.Druid did he face turn again after that Iron Man book
>>152861001It's conveniently ignored that Umar and Tiboro made landgrabs on Earth during Death of Doctor Strange.
>>152864020To be fair, Umar and Tiboro ran away to Earth for sanctuary because of the threat of the Three Mothers. But after Strange died, I think they stopped themAnd then Umar and Tiboro got married and cemented that union with a kidAnd Dormammu has died a few times since thenSo there's no reason Umar shouldn't go back to the Dark Dimension and try to take over again now that she's built up her power base again
>>152864072yeah but Umar didn’t show up in a movie so she doesn’t get squat
>>152863939He was on a Masters of Evil team that fought against Doctor Doom and didn't succeed. Presumably Maddy and Wanda were referencing that time earlier. I think everyone's second-favorite Anthony is still stuck in infernal bondage since the story ended with him there. Tony said he would get him out somehow, but I don't think the next writer is going to pick that up.
>>152864433Maybe to tie it into Magik? If it’s infernal, they could have her saving him, dunnoMakes sense to me since they seem to want to push her now
bump
>>152859039reading bump
>>152860738The issue isn't that Wanda's name is on the cover the issue is that Orlando's name is
>>152862952Agatha gets treated as a rival and pseudo equal for wanda so she inexplicably gets multipage and sometimes multi-chapter fights. He even had her rip out cthon's heart. Meanwhile, Cthon, Dormmamu, Moridun, Oshtur, nightmare, and others get easily beaten beaten by Wanda.
>>152860065Looks like a shrunken X97 Magneto
>>152868001Imagine telling this to someone in the 20th century. Of course you need to explain who Moridun was.
>>152859038The fact that this isn't called "Sorceress Supreme" is enough to make me judge it as garbage without reading it.Gender language or fuck off!
>>152860033>Prospero>The IdeaverseOh wow, they're bringing THAT back?
>>152859038I want them both to stomp on my dick.
>>152862952That's because she one shots everyone minus Agatha and this fight is the only one Agatha put up a fight. She'd stomp her any other time. Every time Orlando gives Wanda a decent fight he then ruins it by making it clear it was never really a problem for her.
>>152868001>>152868084Moridun is BASED and so cool anon
How much longer is Orlando going to be allowed to ruin this character for?
>>152870257Probably at least one more relaunch, Marvel wants this book for some reason and he seems to be the only one who wants to write her
>>152860318>the Dark DimensionIt's still fucked up that the Dark Dimension is completely unrelated to the Darkforce Dimension.
>>152868001Nightmare is easily beaten by everybody.
>>152861912Come to think of it, I don't recall that any of Marvel's magical heroes tried to form a witch coven or something. Villains may have done it on occasion. The science heroes have come together in think tanks and stuff like the Future Foundation. But the magic crowd has never tried to form covens despite that being a classic trope for witches.
>>152871012The Dark Dimension is called like that to make you know it's a bad place, the Darkforce Dimension is called like that because that's where the Darkforce Energy came from

this book does NOT understand marvel magicyou are NOT Ditko, you cannot write marvel magic
>>152868418In-story she uses Sorceress. Might be a trademark thing.
>>152874171Impressive DSLs
>>152874171Guy Gardner but magic? Why?
>>152874314How do you feel about The Marvel Tarot?
>>152870257How is Orlando ruining her? It's been a low stakes run that isn't for everyone, but he seems to be consistently repairing her relationships with her family members and ex-boyfriend (as much as Marvel will allow). We could only dream of Hank Pym getting a run like this.
>>152874571he's asian, ugly, and not cool, which makes him wildly different from Guy Gardner
>>152875035He’s Asian? I honestly thought he was half-black. Is there some kind of Asians with hugely pronounced lips like that
>>152874905>but he seems to be consistently repairing her relationships with her family members and ex-boyfriend (as much as Marvel will allow).Orlando wrote a Wanda/Vision mini which showcased why they work together so well, got them back together for a while, only for it to end with a status quo reset and Vision doesn't remember any of it. Like that's all Marvel editorial would allow because they're still full of people who hate the pairing and have been for decades.Then within the last few weeks, he did an interview where he talked about them as one of those ex-couples who stayed friends but "don't work as a couple", in direct contradiction to what he just wrote, but very much like he's following the party line.Either he has to go or whoever's telling him it has to be like this has to go.
>>152859038i dont read doctor strange but why does marvel refuse to let him be the supreme these days? like last i checked he had died or something and clea was sorceror supreme ?
>>152877910The Clea run didn't even make it an arc before they brought him back And by the end of that run they made him Sorcerer Supreme againDoom stole the job from himBut he currently has his own solo where he has become Sorcerer Supreme of Asgard
>>152877910It's like Tony losing his wealth and/or armor. It's just a thing that happens every few years.
>>1528779101. Wong is Sorcerer Supreme in the MCU so they might legitimately be keeping the title from him for synergy reasons2. >>152877971, but for some reason Strange also loses the house, the artifacts, half his costume, and his powers for some reason (even though SS is a job title that only comes with a (permanent) “power boost” if you pass a bunch of ridiculously hard trials)3. All-in-one way to “solve” multiple problems: nobody knowing how to write a Classical Dr. Strange anymore, Strange being so OP that he fucks up the stakes when tied into the larger universe, white man being the master of very oriental magic if you’re going the idpol route, etc.4. Cheap way to give him “stakes” and “see him at his lowest” It might actually be worse than Tony losing his armor and business, because at least that didn’t have a super great example of it being done right to compare all the shitty modern attempts toStrange has the Dark Magic saga by Gillis, nobody who came after him has any excuse
>>152859965>Agatha says I'm stubborn but I'd die before admitting itIn one of his interviews promoting this book, Orlando said Wanda was someone who'd "die before doing things the way they've always been done just because that's how they've always been done". He's been writing her relatively normally for years, why is he suddenly treating her like someone who'd throw her life away over pretty trivial things like admitting to a character flaw or following tradition?I haven't been following Strange's book or the Doom event, but as far as I knew, Wanda had been on positive terms with most of the other mystic characters for years, outside of with Strange in one Hickman X-Men story about 6 years ago. So why is everyone acting like she's an absolutely unacceptable person to take over the SS role? I get why they think she's claimed the title without right to it, but suddenly everyone's talking like Wanda's a dangerous loose cannon that can't be trusted like it's 2005 or something.Similarly, the series starts with Wanda talking a lot about how the very system of magic is broken and needs to be changed, but we didn't really get much specifics on what's wrong with it all, so it all looks like empty talk about change for the sake of forced conflict and drama.
>>152860010Have to say, they raised some good points on her causing too much potential harm if she can just palm a galaxy without magical wellsprings being unable to feel it coming. They're still acting pretty dumb with this fight though.
>>152860987>These are all nice. That's good.Internal art still has a long way to go, and there's the big problem we're all avoiding mentioning, but allowing this volume of the book to have sexier covers may be a sign Marvel is slowly healing.
>>152874354That's a very rational take....Which I why I know it's wrong. I imagine Disney Marvel already has "Sorceress Supreme" trademarked.Marvel Disney is not a rational thing.
>>152878732>It might actually be worse than Tony losing his armor and business, because at least that didn’t have a super great example of it being done right to compare all the shitty modern attempts toO'Neil?
>>152879224it's an anti-DEI story written under the editorial mandate of writing a pro-DEI story
>>152877910Peter isn't the only Spider-Man, Cap isn't Cap, Tony loses his armor, Thor is not allowed to be Thor, there are multiple Hulks, do you get the picture yet?
