Zatanna and The Scarlet Witch



Here are a couple of great characters, both spell-casters with daddy issues .  Zatanna spent years searching for her Father Zatara and then struggled to live up to his example.  Wanda Maximoff's father is Magneto, so you know that's gotta be a dysfunctional relationship.  She has been out of the spotlight for a bit, but something tells me that she will play a role in the upcoming Avengers Vs. X-Men event, as she has a history with both teams.  Plus it is Brian Michael Bendis' final big storyline with The Avengers, and maybe he will use the opportunity to redeem her - after all he was the one who decided to make her insane and homicidal in his first Avengers arc. Zatanna is back with a JLA team in Justice League Dark, which is cool - but I have to wonder what DC was thinking with her new costume design.  Did they really think that moving the fishnets from her legs to her arms was a good idea?

Dave sez,

tahT skcor!

I think Scarlet Witch should join Zatanna in a guest-appearance in Birds of Prey.

That is awesome!

I wish I had waited a week on my Zatanna/Scarlet Witch post this last Saturday.

With Zatanna's new costume DC probably wanted her to stand out less - stage magician costume would probably look odd in title called Justice League DARK. They failed miserably, because that new design is ridiculous, but I can see where were they coming from.

So far Super-Team Family run has only team-ups of DC and Marvel heroes - any plans for other guys to show up? I would love to see who would you pair Invincible with (my bet is on Supergirl).

Hellboy has appeared and is from Dark Horse. There will be plenty of Non-DC/Marvel characters featured, have no fear.
