(This review may contain spoilers).
Although I couldn’t really afford it, I was still really desperate to read this book, considering how much I like the Scarlet Witch… and that I really like her relationship with the Vision (even though my niece doesn’t think they should be together).
I liked the nice variety of different storylines in the comics in this set. It was good to see Wanda as a strong character and also have a really good relationship with the Vision. They had some really nice interactions together and it was also good to see them gain more family and friends… though I wasn’t sure I really liked the other couple they made as friends. I thought they were good characters at first… but I did feel that they weren’t as ‘good’ as they could have been.
I liked being able to see the Vision’s interactions with Simon and how the two of them had accepted each other as brothers. It was a bit sad about what had happened with the third brother… but I think it was still good to see the way the family dynamic changed.
It was nice to see Wanda have the opportunity to experience motherhood. I really didn’t like the people from their neighbourhood. While I could understand not wanting to let themselves get chased away, I thought they’d placed themselves in unnecessary danger.
I liked being able to see the Vision trying to learn more about who he is… and how he came to accept himself and his place with Wanda. There were a lot of times I forgot that he wasn’t entirely human… and it was particularly good to see him interacting with some of the other Avengers. And i was especially good to be able to see Clint; and I really liked the fact that Mockingbird put in an appearance, even though she didn’t appear for very long.
It was also good to see that Pietro was happy… but the way things were with him and Crystal was difficult to see. And I couldn’t help feeling sorry for their daughter… and really disliking Crystal.
I did enjoy reading these comics and it was good to see more of the romance between Wanda and the Vision. I plan to read more in the Marvel universe in the near future.
