Marvel Unveils a Hidden Romance Between Two MCU Icons – And Why They’ll Never Experience It

Marvel has produced some of the most iconic comic book romances of all time. From Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson to Reed Richards and Sue Storm, there seems to be a power couple for every corner of the Marvel Universe. While Dr. Strange and his wife Clea stand as the most powerful mystical couple, there is another potential (and surprising) couple that could give them a serious run for their money: Scarlet Witch and Loki.After a Mountain Giant known as Arkin the Weak steps through the Last Door in Scarlet Witch #8 (by Steve Orlando, Lorenzo Tammetta, Sara Pichelli, Frank William, and VC’s Cory Petit) the titular character embarks on a quest to speak to the ruler of Jotunheim on his behalf. However, said ruler just so happens to be Loki, who isn’t particularly interested in hearing Arkin out. What Loki is interested in, however, is dueling Wanda in a battle of truths. With a simple hex in place, both the Scarlet Witch and the God of Stories are rendered incapable of speaking anything but the truth – and this not only uncovers a hidden romance between them, but that Loki’s own issues are the reason why they will never experience it. Although they might not seem like it on the surface, the Scarlet Witch and Loki have quite a bit in common. Both started out as villains in their earliest appearances, with Wanda making her introduction as a member of Magneto’s original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants back in 1964’s X-Men #4 (by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby). Similarly, Loki spent decades terrorizing Thor and other Marvel heroes, so much so that they were ultimately the one responsible for the formation of the Avengers. In the years since, Wanda and Loki have each shed their villainous personas, although their reputations continue to reap the repercussions of their former ways.
