The Witches Road
The major plot for Agatha All Along seems to be about Agatha and her new coven traveling the witches road. Some fans were, rightfully, upset by this realization because this is one of Scarlet Witch’s major storylines from one of her few solo titles. Those of us that have been in the trenches of the internet for the last few years have heard things like, “Wanda can’t carry her own movie” and “there isn’t enough to her character for a whole trilogy”. Now both of these statements are blatantly wrong and show a distinct lack of comic book knowledge and common sense. But the idea that there is a lack of substance to her character is present in the fandom. So to take one of her major storylines and give it to Agatha is wildly insulting. That said, I have faith in Jac Shaeffer as she is the only one to handle my Wanda with care and respect. So what exactly is the witches road storyline and what parts of it will we actually see in the show?

'Agatha All Along': Whose Hair Is Inside Agatha's Locket?
WARNING: SPOILERS for Agatha All Along, episodes 1 and 2. The first two episodes of Agatha All Along, the first spin-off of the popular, critically acclaimed WandaVision, has arrived on Disney Plus, and already, the series is bringing levels of theories and speculation not seen with a small screen Marvel project since it's parent series first aired. Much of the speculation has involved the true identity of Joe Locke's mysterious 'Teen' character, and what prize each Coven member actually wants if they successfully reach the end of the Witches' Road. However, the first two episodes of the series have raised a new question.

Agatha Harkness
With Agatha All Along coming out and being a pretty stand alone show I think it is necessary to give some comic book context for the character. Though she played a fairly major role in WandaVision, not everyone has seen the show. And though it was fairly comic book accurate there is so much more to Agatha Harkness then we have seen. So as your local comic book historian I think it is important that we talk about her on the page counterpart as this show unfolds.

The Salem Seven
Agatha All Along has name dropped the Salem Seven and as your resident comic book expert I am here to answer all those burning comic book questions. I think context is really important for a lot of these Marvel shows. But more important than that, this is how I chronicle how comic book accurate these shows are. Not that they need to be, but the best MCU films and TV shows are truer to the source material. So whether or not you read or care about the comics it is in everyone's best interest if the creators care about them.

I Said "LUNCH", Not "LAUNCH"
Last November saw the death of legendary kids TV producer Marty Krofft at age 86. Marty along with his brother Sid, were to praise (or blame) for some of the most outrageous, crazy, and subversive children’s television of the 1970s and 1980s. Before Pee Wee’s Playhouse and before SpongeBob SquarePants, there was H.R Pufnstuf, Land of The Lost, Electra Woman & Dyno Girl, The Lost Saucer (with Jim Nabors) D.C. Follies, and much more. The Krofft brothers were probably the only people in the 1980s who imagined that Richard Pryor could headline a Saturday morning kids show (Pryor’s Place) in the style of Sesame Street.

Agatha All Along
The first episode of Agatha All Along was undeniably captivating. The mystery, the pacing, the way that all the characters played off of each other was brilliantly crafted. Jac Shaeffer has proven that she knows these characters, and more than that, that she cares for them. She is in fact the only writer in the MCU that I trust with my favorite characters. I have quite a few predictions based off this first episode but they gave us the first two so let's get into it.

Agatha All Along
Agatha All Along released its first 2 episodes at once this week. The first people to review it sang its praises, save for a few butthurt internet fanboys who can’t stand the sight of women on their TV screens. I for one am very skeptical about the series if for no other reason then they are adapting The Witches Road which is a very prominent WANDA storyline. And as she is my favorite character, and has yet to have her own solo movie, it very much feels like a slap in the face to take one of her biggest comic book moments and give it to someone else. That said, the promise of a future Scarlet Witch project hangs in the air so I am excited to see how Agatha can help us get there.

Villainess Review: Dee Baxter (The Wayans Bros.)
Who remembers The WB? The original WB Network? Hard to believe that it's been almost 30 years since that network launched, and would go on to become this big thing--keeping up with what was now the Big Four networks (CBS, NBC, ABC, and Fox). The whole thing started in early 1995, and it ended up leading to the launch of Kids' WB that fall (that's another story). The network had their trademark shows, and among their earliest hits was The Wayans Bros., the memorable sitcom that officially put Shawn and Marlon Wayans on the spotlight.
