Avengers: Age Of Ultron - 10 Incredibly Disturbing Comic Moments That Won't Be In The Film

3. Scarlet Witch Goes Crazy Because Her Kids Never Existed Because She Was Already Crazy

For years, the Scarlet Witch's powers where explained as being "chaos magic", a highly volatile and predictable type of magic that creates the least likely best probability occurrence. It was used for decades as a MacGuffin for the Avengers to get out of otherwise sticky scenarios and to explain, among other things, how Wanda was able to bear children with her robo-husband, The Vision. However following the events of Avengers Disassembled and preceding House of M, it started to become clear that something was amiss with Scarlet Witch. As her friends and teammates began searching for her and trying to assist her, years of dillusion began to unravel. The first thing to go was chaos magic: when directly confronted, the sorcerer supreme, Dr. Strange asserted there was no such thing and Wanda had simply been using very powerful magic in an unrestricted and dangerously natural way. The next was the revelation that there never had been any children. Years of their existence had been retconned away as a fantasy that only the Scarlet Witch was aware of - a frightening thought and a simple solution all rolled into one brushstroke. Understandably when confronted with the truth, Wanda went a little bonkers and changed the entire world to her image of perfection (House Of M), by granting everyone their deepest desire. When that didnt work she tried to erase all mutants. It's been an uphill battle for credibility since then. While people are still arguing about the end of Inception, this probably is too surreal for a movie and additionally the fact that her kids never existed is pretty off-putting because they were central to several story lines that can now only be perceived through the Scarlet Witch's perspective.
