@God:
Wow, way to oversimplify and overstate. First off, it's not just everyone good is evil and everyone good is evil. Characters such as Hobgoblin have had almost no change at all. Hobby has decided to profit now by selling old hero identities and costumes instead of that of villains he's still the same person otherwise. Then there's Carnage, he wants to be good, but his homicidal tendencies are still there and he needs someone to show him how to be good. This is without going into people like Deadpool and Kluh.
lol it's not my fault that Marvel never properly went into detail about what an inversion does to certain characters. It's different for everyone else and the shitty event never properly laid down the rules. Plus Tom Brevoort himself said in an interview that they become the opposite of the D&D moral alignment spectrum. So from the editor's mouth: good guys become bad and bad guys become good.
Second off, Decimation was retconned into not being Wanda's fault it was Doom's which you know about because it was referenced in AXIS #7 and previous Axis issues.
Even when that retcon first came up in Chidren's Crusade, the characters IN the story where questioning if Doom was speaking the truth when he took the blame. Plus, Wanda sought out Doom to bring back her babbies and she knew the risk when she took the Life Force. The entire retcon was poorly handled (so it's no surprise Remender fully embraced it) considering it was Quicksilver who convinced Wanda to create the HoM world and there'd be no way for Doom to influence him, nor would it be possible for him to influence the actual HoM events, since he would not have his real memories.
Has Wanda still been acting as a cunt following Decimation? Yes. Did Remender make her and Havok his mouthpieces in Uncanny Avengers? Yes. Though saying she's a bad person is completely false.
She has done NOTHING to redeem herself after she was reinstated as an Avenger. She didn't attempt to reconcile with lthe people whose lives she's ruined, regularly complained about the mutants being mean to her, took the mutant population's agency away AGAIN when she wanted them to fight against the Apocalypse Twins. She is not intended to be a bad person, but she comes off as a terrifyingly, horrible selfish bitch.
The "No more mutants" thing only happened under Bendis because he doesn't like Scarlet Witch.
Bendis just made her a nutter because of her growing innate power, who BTW, already was willing to sacrifice herself before Pietro convinced her to create HoM
Heinberg retconned it so that she selfishly sought out the Life Force by going to DOOM of all people and she went nuts because of it.
Remender retconned her into being an uncaring brat who blamed mutants for her pariah status and thinks they should just get over their petty persecution complexes. Who cares that they had to bury their friends and students on a daily basis and were hounded off American soil after her little spell? SHE had it pretty rough too!!!
Now which one of these writers treated her worse? Bendis' intial retcon could have easily been done away with as her being crazy, instead Marvel just kept piling on the idiocy, while at the same time starting her redemption arc.
She was a respected Avenger long before he wrote her, so she was already a hero before that. Also, fans already despise her due to Decimation and she was missing in comics for around 5 years.
She has a history of being a nutter and even in the popular runs there are constant references to her dangerous magic.
I don't mean to sound patronizing when I say this, but are you even following Axis?
Um, yes. I've written reviews on every single issue. Obviously the main series is a piece of crap, so I'm sorry if you don't agree with that. Even the comic book sites who often give Marvel favourable reviews (CBR, Newsarama, Comicbook.com) have been extremely critical of this turd.
Yes, editorial is still not that fond of her. At a recent convention, one of the fans asked if Wanda would get a push. The editor replied that she still wasn't over the whole "No more mutants" thing. Though she's hardly irredeemable considering this event in oversimplified terms "Makes the good guys bad."
The entire point of AvX and Uncanny Avengers was to redeem Wanda. The fact that it failed so bad was because of bad writing. We were supposed to sympathise with her when she took the high ground against Rogue (who was rightfully angry, but was depicted as deluded and childish) and when she "owned" her in their debates about minority politics. Marvel has essentially thrown the entire right of the X-Men (and their fans) to be angry out of the window in time for Wanda to be their angel again, which was perfectly encapsulated when Rogue BEGGED Wanda for forgiveness for being so mean to her and not understanding that she had it way worse than the muties she maimed.
The editor who made those comments was an X-Men editor who is now a talent scout, so her opinion doesn't matter in the offices anymore. Brevoort, the second in command afer the EiC, has often said that Wanda's redemption is complete and that Marvel believes she's a hero again. Remender has said in interviews that she's heroic and selfless.
If you feel Marvel hates Wanda, that's fine, but do know there's a difference between intent and execution.
