    Wandavision was the best series on Disney Plus. It was well written, directed, exciting, intriguing and fun. Loki was a dark, mad mess, like most of the Marvel project of the last few years. Then James Gunn comes along and gives us a Marvel movie (GOTG3) with animal cruelty, torture, mutilation and murder. So Disney is going to double down with Gunn, and Raimi who have really delivered dark, non-family oriented movies and series. Gunn just cancelled Wonder Woman 3 too. He also shelved Batgirl – in favor of Flash – so glad that tanked. The reviews were awful. Marvel is done as is DC. They were great years ago.

      GOTG vol 3 was actually one of the brighter spots of a saga that’s otherwise felt largely bland directionless. FYI the shelving of Batgirl was not Gunn’s decision, it was made way before he was given the job. Don’t know where you got in your skull that Disney are supposedly “doubling down” on him and Rami.

        She is my favorite character. If they remove her then I don’t know if I would really have much faith in MCU. Why can’t they listen to fans. We put the money in their pockets.

        1. Christopher Baker

          But with the woke wave happening they are expecting us to like what they want not what we want.

          Good thing Batgirl is dc and not in the mcu

    2. Imagine thinking “Dark” translates to “bad”. Sorry, but since when has superhero stories ever been “light” and “family friendly?” Their origins literally usually revolves around death, chaos, sacrifice, and destruction. People made superheros to encapture the world wars. Superheros as a genre has always BEEN dark.

      So go watch Barbie or The Little Mermaid. Those seem more your speed. Don’t try to review or comment on something you clearly have no good perspective on

      1. Miguel

        If you fail to see the satirical aspect of Barbie, it could be because you have a basic understanding and are not familiar with the concept of satire.

      You must lack common sense if you think WandaVision is better than Loki, you need to understand Loki in order to enjoy it, but I can already tell you lack understanding. Loki is the best MCU Disney+ series. WandaVision was good but not a good as Loki.

      I agree with you 100 percent…guardians 3 was a hard 1 to watch, I haven’t finished it yet because of the animal cruelty…I think Gunn went a bit hard on that topic…I have no respect for him now…

      1. James

        If you understand that the idea was to show the pain of Rocket and the cruelty man has to all things. You take all this cause you want to avoid seeing the truth cause you feel helpless to stop it

    5. Jay

      Batgirl was canceled before Gunn got there also Raimi is an amazing filmmaker

    6. Kelley B.

      Absolutely right Endgame was the hit it was because of many years of character development, humor, good writing, and happy actors. The Mouse and Warner Brothers don’t seem to understand that.

    7. Christopher Baker

      Amen to that. You are so right about that

  2. Map

    She’ll be back when the x-men are introduced. She’s magnetos kid and jean greys phoenix is going to need a match

    1. David Von Raesfeld

      Her being Magnetos kid was retoconned by Marvel years ago. (Back in 2014) I doubt Marvel/Disney would continue to use that storyline.

  3. Becky

    Was it Elizabeth Olsen (Arnette) who decided not to make a reappearance or was it Marvel in general

  4. E. Ocasio

    Olsen and Bethany had great chemistry as the characters, they should not be replaced! Olsen deserves her own movie as Scarlet Witch.

  5. Matthew

    This has got to be a made up rumor cause I’m not buying that she’s fired from marvel not yet and just because the book cover is changed doesn’t mean she’s fired

    1. USAgent Black

      True.

  6. Rocky

    No one could replace Elizabeth as Wanda. She was beyond compare in terms of giving Wanda’s arc in WandaVision life, sadness, and depth. I really doubt that we’ll see someone else take the role when she’s left such an impact as the character. They can take their time bringing her back but they’ll do it eventually.

  7. Westie

    MARVEL is removing more and more fan favorites…this is sad news for me. I loved seeing her in her roles from Iron Man to Wandavision

  8. Craig

    Seriously? Is Matvel gonna be as bad as DC now? Dumping their big stars?

    1. Craig

      Sorry. MARVEL.

    2. Bro can’t spell marvel

  9. Mac Duncan

    Yes. Continue the roll.
    And if there is another film she would like to do. Let her and work with her schedule.

  10. Jake

    James Brolin? Smh

  11. Cw

    Just wanna ask…. Thor isn’t on the cover?????

    1. Suguler

      The character is at a dead end because they have made her too powerful and made her into a cartoon villain. Not introducing her arch nemesis Chthon in MoM screwed Wanda’s character arc.

      They would need a solo movie with Chthon as the villain to make Wanda viable again.

      Bur they have decided just want to use her as a plot device on Deadpool 3 and Kang Dynasty.

  12. Casey

    Book covers get changed all the time. Wanda is probably still in the book. It says timeline.

  13. Casey

    Looked on Amazon of the book Wanda’s picture is on the back cover

  14. Danielle

    They better not get rid of Wanda! It seems like they’re getting rid of all the good characters! She is one of the best.

  15. Duncan

    Half the reason I kept watching MCU stuff recently was hoping they’d bring her back.

  16. Mister

    Elizabeth Olsen Arnett irreplaceable Forever Wanda maximoff

  17. MP

    MCU is trying to drive loyal fans to DC. Everything they are giving us now has been crap. The newer stuff is weak. The next ‘big’ villain Kang may be getting fired. The newer heroes are about as exciting as watching paint dry. The stories are bad. If you wanna keep fans bring back Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen not someone new) or else your product is gonna become Batman v Superman.

    Elizabeth Olsen “IS” Scarlet Witch…End Of Discussion

  19. Vee

  20. Adam

    Definitely need to keep her as the Scarlet Witch. She has been a great addition to the mcu.
