Look, I understand that this is a hugely dramatic story about Wanda. But after hearing Byrne’s personal opinions about Wanda and Vision, it’s hard to see this as anything other than Byrne systematically dismantling their marriage and their family. #marvel #westcoastavengers

While Wanda is unconscious, Agatha explains again how William and Thomas were created. The general upshot is that they weren’t ever real, and now they’re gone forever. And Wanda’s memory of them has been closed off, so she will never remember. Ever. #marvel #westcoastavengers

This story wraps up in the typical way: Agatha’s cat Ebony fights Mephisto, while Agatha takes over Wanda’s mind and transported them all out of Hell and back home. It’s a tale as old as time. #marvel #westcoastavengers

In the time it takes to script and draw six people observing a battle, you could have just drawn the battle itself. This feels like lazy storytelling. #marvel #westcoastavengers

There is a long and convoluted explanation about William and Thomas, but here’s the very short version: William and Thomas were parts of Mephisto’s soul brought to life, and now they have been reabsorbed back into him. They’re gone. #marvel #westcoastavengers

Wonder Man is getting eaten by a demon baby. That’s gotta be humiliating! #marvel #westcoastavengers

Agatha Harkness explains that William and Thomas aren’t actually real, but are just manifestations of Wanda’s desire to have children. More than illusions, but less than…well, less than human. #marvel #westcoastavengers

Master Pandemonium has been searching for the lost pieces of his soul—it’s a long story—and he has discovered that Thomas and William are actually two of those pieces! Or at least that’s what he thinks.… The story isn’t over yet. #marvel #westcoastavengers

I have to say that this is the cutest baby on fire that I’ve ever seen! He looks like he’s having a good time! #marvel #westcoastavengers
