Anti-hero is the best term to use here, as Agatha is far from a conventional, likable protagonist.
She’s cruel, manipulative, vindictive, and still very close to the villain that she was inWandaVision.
Speaking ofWandaVision, the show still remains as one of the MCU’s best…until it’s not.
Agatha Harkness, following the events of “WandaVision,” embarks on a quest to reclaim her lost powers. Teaming up with unlikely allies, including the son of her former enemy, she faces new mystical threats while navigating a complex world of magic and intrigue.
Whether Wanda intended to use her magic in this way or not is irrelevant.
The only thing Wanda sacrificed was a world she imagined for herself, which is hardly heroic.
The tonally inconsistent ending ofWandaVisiongets even more perplexing givenWanda’s next appearance inDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Among those citizens is Agatha, who seems more than okay withWanda’s alleged death.
She may be the protagonist, but to quote another unorthodox Marvel lead, she is no hero.
So if Agatha is such a cruel person, why do we all still like her so much?
