With as many complicated characters and complex storylines as the Marvel Universe has produced over the years, it is no surprise that many of its most iconic figures happen to be a part of exceptionally convoluted families. While this is completely expected for the likes of Thor and other immortal beings who have lived for eons, even the personal histories of Marvel’s gods pale in comparison to that of the Scarlet Witch.Although Wanda Maximoff seemed to be a simple enough character upon her introduction in 1964’s X-Men #4 (by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby), it later became apparent that this was not the case. As the years went on, the truth behind not only Wanda’s parentage, but her ancestry as a whole and even the validity of her children would be called into question. As such, the Scarlet Witch has one of the most complex family trees in the Marvel Universe, and it is likely only going to get stranger as time goes on.While Wanda’s ancestry can be tracked back as far as Red Lucy, the infamous 16th century pirate who occasionally traded places with her descendant’s consciousness, the Scarlet Witch of today knew little of her true lineage as a mage until after the introduction of her mother Natalya’s spirit in 2016’s Scarlet Witch #3 (by James Robinson, Steve Dillon, and Chris Visions). Not only was Natalya herself also known as the Scarlet Witch, but that particular moniker was revealed to be one that had been passed down through their family for generations.The X-Men’s Latest Ally Also Killed Their Greatest Leader
