![]() And then the next time that we see Hayward, he’s being arrest by Woo and the FBI. Hayward then attempts to make his getaway in a car, but is then t-boned by Darcy in her circus van. Hayward draws his gun and attempts to shoot both Billy and Tommy in the middle of the street, but Monica jumps into action and uses her phasing powers to protect them from gunfire. Something that I wasn’t fond of with ‘The Series Finale’ was Hayward’s plan and fate. Wanda takes on Agatha, Vision takes on White Vision, and Billy and Tommy take on the S.W.O.R.D agents. We get an awesome Incredibles-type scene where each character takes on their own opponent. White Vision, Agatha, and Hayward with his hoard of angry S.W.O.R.D agents that still want to take her down. They regroup and confront their new threats. Naturally, Wanda reforms the Hex in an effort to keep her family alive. So just as soon as she opens everything up, Vision, Billy, and Tommy begin to disintegrate. However, none of Wanda’s creations can exist outside the barrier of the Hex. This leads Wanda to make the decision to open the “hex” and let everybody free. But rather, they were being tortured by Wanda’s own nightmares and unable to break free from her control. Wanda learns that while everybody was under her control, they were not living pleasant lives. She brings the residents of Westview out from under Wanda’s control, allowing them to finally speak freely. Agatha Harkness battles with Wanda inside The Hex.Īgatha is determined throughout the episode to make Wanda see the errors of her ways and understand that she is unfit to be the Scarlet Witch. Instead, it seems like they’re doing something similar, yet unique, with this whole “Scarlet Witch” business. Both of those films are generally regarded as horrendous misinterpretations of the comic story, so I’m willing to bet that the MCU won’t be touching that story for quite some time. Now, we’ve seen the “Phoenix” used twice in FOX’s interpretations of The Dark Phoenix Saga from the comics, once in 2006’s X-Men: The Last Stand and more recently in 2019’s Dark Phoenix. This will be interesting because it seems as though the MCU is setting Scarlet Witch up to be something akin to the Phoenix Force from the X-Men comics. Agatha wants that power for herself, because she believes that Wanda is not equipped enough to handle it. ![]() We find out that the Scarlet Witch (as an entity) is more powerful than the Sorcerer Supreme (Doctor Strange) and that it is meant to destroy the world. The MCU is doing something cool with this mythos, turning the concept of “The Scarlet Witch” into a mythical being as described in the Darkhold. As it turns out, Agatha didn’t just call Wanda “The Scarlet Witch” for a cool little name drop. Quickly, Agatha reveals her true intentions. And then not even more than a few seconds later, White Vision and Vision face off in the skies. They throw magical attacks at one another and Wanda even goes as far as to toss a whole car at Agatha to stop her from attacking the twins. In fact, right off the bat, Wanda and Agatha begin to duel in the streets of Westview. I would say that a majority of the 50-minute runtime was fight scenes and large explosive displays of power. One thing that I absolutely loved about ‘The Series Finale’ was that it was full of action. The episode picks up right where we left off-with Agatha holding Billy and Tommy hostage. This episode was the resolution of everything, which is why it got a slightly longer runtime than the other episodes of the show. Much of the penultimate episode from last week was spent getting the audience up to speed as to what exactly pushed Wanda over the edge and made her form her “hex” over the city of Westview. WandaVision’s final episode, ‘The Series Finale’ gave us the final showdown between Wanda and Agatha. ![]() The rest of Wanda’s adventure will carry on in the MCU movies, like Doctor Strange: The Multiverse of Madness. So the finale of WandaVision’s first season is quite literally the series finale. ![]() It’s not like the Netflix Marvel shows that can get ordered for multiple seasons. For those of you that might be confused as to what I’m talking about, WandaVision was a limited series. But now it’s over and we’re faced with the very real reality that we’ll never see a Marvel series quite like this one. It breaks my heart to have to say goodbye to WandaVision, mainly because it feels like just yesterday the series began. The final episode of WandaVision, ‘The Series Finale’, reveals the fate of Westview and The Scarlet Witch! ‘The Series Finale’ – Wanda infiltrates Agatha’s mind. ![]()
