I mean... why not both?

Maybe it's because I don't read the comics so I don't know much about her, but for a character that SEEMED to have so much coolness and potential, the MCU did very little with her, so it would be neat IMO to delve into the potential she seems to have.

[tabaqui]

In the comics, she can and does literally change the entire universe, and she has brought someone back from the dead. They've changed her powers around of course, as comic writers always seem to do, but she has a *lot* of power.

I suspect that she, like many other very powerful characters, is a huge challenge to be written well and/or interestingly, because they always seem to either radically alter, or somehow 'cripple' super-powerful characters, because otherwise they could solve all the issues without all the crazy super-heroing.

"either radically alter, or somehow 'cripple' super-powerful characters"

This is exactly how I've felt about Wanda in the MCU. And seeing as the secret mentions him, MCU Loki has basically been reduced to "lol knives" by this point.

This is why I struggle to be on board with the "wow the writers are genius!" narrative in the MCU fandom. They're taking the easier way out a lot of the time, such as removing characters from the plot at certain points or neutering their powers.

[tabaqui]

Oh, man, so much this. Who in hell thinks they're genius? I mean, i get they have to kind of follow the comic canon to a point but...yeah. I've read a half-dozen fanfics that do a HUGELY better job of the Infinity War stuff and the dreadful, dreadful Age of Ultron Stuff.

And hell, just - a lot of stuff in general, stop being so *predictable*.....

Does... does anyone in the MCU fandom actually think they're genius? Bc that's not a sentiment I've ever seen from the Stucky or the Thorki side of things. In my corners of the fandom people are pretty critical.

Can you blame them for neutering or removing those characters, though? Even the comics don't stay true to their powers. It wouldn't be a very interesting movie if Wanda could just show up and *~+magic+~* all the problems away.
