Wanda’s powers in WandaVision match her abilities in Avengers #185–187 from 1979. The show explores her ability to bend reality, which mirrors the chaotic magic she uses in the comics. Her grief plays a key role in how her powers spiral out of control, just like in her comic book arcs. The events of the show also draw comparisons to House of M, where she changes reality on a much larger scale. Wanda’s powers make her one of the most unpredictable characters in the MCU. Her story highlights how staying close to the source material can make a character more layered and complex. The adaptation sticks to what worked in the comics while giving Wanda a modern twist that fits the MCU’s larger story.
