this queen here was never wrong

Those aren't retcons; those are power-ups. (in comics) It's the failure of MCU that they couldn't visibly distinguish her powers from what a normie would assume is telekinesis.

visibly only?

Gotta love when comic fans know EXACTLY what they’re talking about wotb evidence to back it up😭🙏🙏🙏

I think She made this video like 5 years ago 😭😭

i really miss comicbookgirl19's production back in the day. it was like peewee's play house.

well no she still played she oversimplified wanda to hell but by the time this came out the 2015 book had already been out so she couldn’t even do basic research to know that chaos magic and wanda’s reality warping are the same thing and wanda’s had access to magic since like the 80s too

What’s funny is that Wanda and Jean fans famously hate each other. Also in the comics (rn at least) the Twins aren’t mutants just genetically altered and disguised as mutants, but Billy and Tommy are still mutants. It’s very stupid and very funny.

MCU Wanda does not have telepathy? The other things I agree with but thats not how her powers work.

she does 😭 also, initially, some concept arts suggested that her powers would emanate from her forehead. out of that, i think you forgot both telepathy and telekinesis are essential in mcu wanda.

Telepathy is reading peoples minds. Here Wanda is physically enetring their minds. Hell in Age of Ultron she just puts a spell on them so they see their nightmares which also is not telepathy

Telepathy is a LOT of things, not just reading peoples minds. There's mind controls and everything. Also, until 2021 MCU Wanda was NOT a witch for the audience and the lore. She was just a telepath+telekinetic. I was there, I remember it all too well.

I was also there and to me it never really reads like the things Jean or Emma Frosts does. I know that the difference is minimal but Scarlet Witch does not control them, she makes them see things. Could Jean do that? probably

@imtheendofall Maybe you weren’t there at all.

@TerrorDragn @imtheendofall he WASN'T THERE LMAOOOOOOOOO

@summerbmmer @imtheendofall I was 14 years old when this came out. I watched it the week it came out. I was there

People need to accept that Wanda’s comics history and lore is kinda all over the place and was constantly being rewritten, retconned and reimagined. The mcu needed to straighten it out and initially simplifying her powers for AoU was the right move

idk who this person is but…they look almost exactly how i picture rachel summers would look irl

omg real lmao i knew she reminded me of someone

I love seeing MCU Wanda hate, tear her fraud ass apart

The fact that Comic Wanda’s powers are more realistic to witchcraft than Live Action Wanda’s powers like wth

Especially the fact she had to study magic with Agatha Harkness and not only use it out of nothing with no understanding

Haven’t seen ComicBookGirl19 in years.

Idk if it was intentional or nah but… she looks kinda like Scarlet Witch in X Men: Evolution.

im genuinely confused here, mainly bcuz MCU Wanda does NOT have actual telekinesis nor telepathy, Jean Grey’s telekinesis is her controlling and manipulating atoms or molecules, while Wanda on the other hand is completely different as she can ONLY do this thru her Chaos Magic.

In MCU, "Chaos Magic" shit only came out later. Until 2021 Wanda was sold to us as a 'Telekinetic + Telepathic' character who got her powers through Hydra experiments.

as with all things there is a lot of nuance. Like, if you are dumb then yes, they are the same. lol

While telepathy and telekinesis is Jeans main power Wanda is a witch with a wider spectrum of powers that include reality manipulation, telekinesis, telepathy, mind control, hex manipulation, probability manipulation, etc. so I can see the confusion but these are things she does

I think it’s because they just overdone it having her “main” usage of power being telekinesis instead of probability. Like when you look at the Avenger stuff it’s mostly that over causing a final destination scenario for her win.

but that was the whole point of early wanda in the mcu, they didn’t have the xmen and (specially on age of ultro) wanda was basically jean heading into the phoenix saga, i still remember how people were talking about the mcu doing the PS with wanda

I’ve always considered her powers to be as OP as the writers needed them to be

Why not make Wanda be a witch with magic? Her mutant power is just harnassing that amount of magic.

@sinkgrey Mds o hit

@sinkgrey eu não esperava

@_Darlingh_ @sinkgrey 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 take it 👑 Also, I’m glad most people that are causal or just like somehow comics and the characters; knows and like Jean so they know the MCU fcked up part of her lore. This just proves Jean is well known for the gp even without having the MCU support.

@_Darlingh_ @sinkgrey Thank You fren 🫂 Yess!!! me too!

i haven’t seen comicbookgirl19 in so long oh my goodness

You can literally tell the difference between between jean and wanda 🤣🤣 literally one is the phoenix force and Wanda is the SCARLET WITCH her powers are based on hexes

She is a witch, witches have telekinesis too…..

True. And on the topic of Marvel Heroes stealing identities, I take issue with Spider-Man Noir just going by The Spider and taking Dick Wentworth's whole 1930s schtick.

not you getting a hit tweet 😭😭😭

I- 😭😭😭

Haven’t seen her in a hot minute since she went by CG19. What’s her new name?

I’m always down for some MCU Wanda slander

You people don’t get it. The general public is not gonna know about Wanda’s chaos magic or Wandavision. The last time they probably saw her was ENDGAME. This is the mess we are at now because of what the MCU did with making Wanda so much like Jean when she first came out.

CBG19?! I haven’t heard that name in years

@hneybears Fox being at the scene of the crime

If Marvel wanted to be more original with Wanda, they should’ve leaned into her probability manipulation and hexes instead of presenting most of her powers as telekinesis for like a decade. A portrayal closer to Jinx from TT would’ve made her feel more distinct from Jean.

They should also cast a Romani actress to play her! Wanda has a lot of depth in the comics because of her origins and powers, but the MCU chose to make her a living foreshadow to Storm and Jean.

Yes! Representation matters, and Wanda’s Romani heritage is a core part of her character. It’s not just about appearance. But despite all these setbacks, I will admit I took every Wanda crumb I could get. Only watched for her lol.

Yes!! Exactly! And oh lol, it happens, i also did it before finding out about all the problems she represented. Mcu is a shame, sadly 🕊️

In Wanda's defense, her powers are displayed as very noticeably red. Jean in Wolverine is purple

this is why they should have left jean grey alone until the X-Men project - and they didn't even need to use her for that. Now it's gonna wash out all of the good wanda stories we've had because zoomers and sadie sink becomes a blinding mania
