--Previous Message-- : I actully disagree, I hated the art but I : thought this was a good issue. I don't : think they've destroyed Wanda at all (if : anything, Bendis has actually made it easier : to bring Wanda back as a heroine). : : I enjoyed seeing hawkeye again and I'm going : to be very interested to see what happens to : both characters post-Civil War. : : The art really didn't appeal to me, but the : story did a lot to bring clint back to the : forefront (and it's already been revealed : that there are plans for him in one of the : Avengers titles). : : I don't see this issue did any more damage : to Wanda as a character though, and if : anything it made her more repairable : following "DisAssembled" (here I : actually felt sorry for her, I didn't in : "DisAssembled" though) : : Cheers. : : James. : : --Previous Message-- : Scarlet Witch has been destoryed and the : writers aren't going to bring her back. : Instead of trying to rehabilitate her : character the writers are starting the : character over from scratch without memories : and without her powers, basically as a empty : shell that the writers can fill in. : : : I agree here. I didn't think this issue was a great story....just filler. It does leave them some wiggle room to bring Wanda back. Is it me though, or are artists taking too much liberty in interpreting Wanda's look. I do realize people change their looks over the years, but it seems Wanda's look has changed from she looked like to something that resembles Jean Grey. I had to flip back and forth a few times before I realized Hawkeye was talking to Wanda and not a new side character. As for the Avengers Disassembled storyline, not only was Wanda's character totally ruined, but so was Quicksilver's. Now niether character is admirable or likeable. Yes, Quicksilver was rude and abrasive, but you always admired him for his family loyalty to his sister. Now there's very little left to admire. Sad.
