MarvelsDisney+commercial from the Super Bowl is a loaded few seconds.
The stuff shown fromFalcon and the Winter Soldieris relatively the most straightforward.
The brief stinger forLokiasks a lot of questions.
But the true highlight of the ad isWandaVision, starring Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany.
Of course, if you havent seen it already, watch the trailer.
It isnt enough that Vision is alive or thatScarlet Witch and Vision are living in various sitcom-like realities.
This could very well be the next step in something bad hitting the MCU.
Now, in the movies, Wandas powers have ranged from telekinesis to mind-manipulation.
In the comics, its a bit more complex.
She started out able to control probability.
Just how much depended on the writer and that led to some interesting questions and directions about her powers.
Comic book superhero stories make the impossible possible, but how much istooimpossible?
More specifically, can he procreate?
Does Vision have sperm?
Wanda and Vision settled down and started raising their twin sons Thomas and William.
Things were happy…for a brief time.
He was stopped and in doing so, was broken down and rebuilt without his previous personality.

So then…what were her children?
These soul shards belonged to the villain Master Pandemonium.
Guys, the MCU in 2020 might actually give us demonic baby hands.
That too lasted a while and she even rekindled her relationship with Vision for a time.
Then the shit hit the fan.
A casual discussion with an intoxicated Wasp unlocked the memories of the whole baby episode.
Having the ability to change reality while not being mentally well were not a great combination.

This included her sons, rumored to be the children of Wonder Man.
During the climax, she acted out against her father Magneto and tearfully wished for, No more mutants.
Something to keep in mind when its time to introduce mutants into the MCU.
Maybe Wandas breakdown will somehow bring us opposite results.
Over time, Marvel loosened up on Wandas villainy and returned her to the status quo.
Well, except for getting back with Vision.
Although he was brought back, he didnt take kindly to herDisassembledactions and wanted nothing to do with her.
The real interesting development was the return of their children.
One member was the magic-using Billy Kaplan, known as Wiccan (formerly called Asgardian).
During the teams adventures, they came across Tommy Shepard, codename Speed.
I…dont have answers for how that works.
Even Wanda isnt sure.
Did her powers cause them to be born in the past?
Did their souls take over existing bodies?
But hey, her kids are real and aged a decade and a half.
The MCU borrows ideas from major events, but rarely ever goes word-for-word.
Will we really get demon baby hands and a couple Young Avengers out of it?
But thematically, the pieces are starting to land.
Now the Avenger with ill-explained powers is living with him in a reality that doesnt seem stable.
The same Avenger who will star inDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnessshortly afterWandaVisionwraps up.
Shes one of the few heroes who could take on Thanos one-on-one.
God save the rest from what shes about to unleash.
