Scarlett Witch

Between the Cellist rumors and The Super Hero Squad Show, I've been falling for Scarlett Witch.

She's awesome...
and nearly impossible to find.

However, we do have this awesome antiques store in town, B's Antiques. Actually, it's the ONLY store antiques store in town but it does have a vendor who does comic stuff. They have two baskets full of buttons from 1985. I got a funny one with Thor, one with Hawkeye and one with Scarlett Witch. Yay!

They also had a numbered Loki figure/sculpture/whatever you call it.

Aren't parents supposed to encourage you NOT to spend money?

My Mom: You should ask how much it is.

Me: It's numbered and 15 years old.

My Mom: It's probably not that much.

Me: Where would I even put it?

I resisted, but I want to go back and get more pins. It's also amusing how well she's learned the different Avengers by sight but my mom has forgotten most of the X-Men.

Is that the picture there? Or did you post a comic and a link? Because the link isn't working.
However, I love the comic, it's hilarious.

Do you watch The Super Hero Squad Show?

Sorry, if I've asked that before.

Scarlet Witch is my favorite Avenger. By far. Seriously, she's the reason I started reading the Avengers an uncomfortable amount of years to mention ago.

I love her brother too. They've got such a rich, interesting history in the Marvel Universe and ungh. I love Wanda.

I need them in a live action capacity so much...but I don't know how they were divvied, whether she counts as an Avenger or part of X-Men...

She's just so awesome!

Yay! Scarlet Witch is my favorite marvel character, hands down, EVER. I'm glad to see more fans of hers!

Yay! Any recommendations for reading?

Yes! I'll be glad to:

Avengers Disassembled (where Wanda goes crazy)
House of M (I recommend this SFM)
Mystic Arcana (she has a short origin story in there, and if you like Magik and Sister Grimm (Nico from the Runaways) that's a great book to have too.
Also they reissued her first appearance in the Avengers, which wasn't bad called Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
I'd also look into finding the story where Clint Barton finds an amnesiac Wanda in Wundagor in the New Avengers #26. Beautiful tale and pretty art... and there's an interesting tie in about that story in Children's Crusade which I won't spoil.

I'm getting into the Ultimates right now, which has a more "ahem" affectionate relationship between Pietro and Wanda, something I ship like crazy. Ultimates 3 though, was kind of emotional, but loved the star-crossed quality to it.

My next goal is to hunt down the series where Loki disguises himself as Wanda but I haven't gotten into looking for that yet...

I hope that helps.I know there's more but that's what I think off my head.

I love the Scarlet Witch. She has a great degree of devotion and that hint of madness with her power that captures me.
