Scarlet Witch is once again casting spells and mischief in Marvel’s intriguing new arc. Hot on the heels of “Agatha All Along,” fans eager for a bewitching reunion will find their cravings satisfied. Agatha Harkness and Wanda Maximoff reconvene in Marvel’s Scarlet Witch series.

Amaranth: A Mysterious Introduction

The comic delightfully reshuffles Scarlet Witch’s realm. By introducing a youthful Agatha, it breathes life into Wanda’s world. But here’s the kicker: Agatha introduces a protege named Amaranth. The plot thickens as Amaranth’s past remains a riddle, much like Agatha’s true intentions. The latest Scarlet Witch issue offers a peek into Amaranth’s Marvel debut.

This sneak-peak, courtesy of ComicBook’s exclusive preview of Scarlet Witch #6, is written by Steve Orlando with art by Lorenzo Tammetta and company. The scene unfolds with Wanda and Agatha mulling over the last encounter. Agatha rid Wanda of the elder god Chthon, a feat revealed in Scarlet Witch Annual #1. Yet now, Agatha claims to come in peace, bearing a student, Amaranth. Wanda’s senses detect a catch. So, she probes into why Agatha won’t teach Amaranth herself. Agatha’s cryptic reply? Not every mentor gets through to every student.

Upstairs, Amaranth’s Story Unravels

Upstairs, Amaranth converses with Darcy Lewis. She spills some beans: Agatha saved her life and found her a home. Her father, who adopted her at ten, tried delving into her past. Instead, his mind unravelled. On the run, Amaranth discovered refuge under Agatha’s wing, albeit temporarily. Now, Wanda faces the complexity of Amaranth’s predicament.

Who is Amaranth, Scarlet Witch’s New Protege?

Amaranth, conceived by artist Jen Bartel, debuts through Marvel’s New Champions variant cover venture. Her story, still shrouded in mystery, promises to add an electrifying layer to Scarlet Witch #6. Wanda must navigate the complexities of Amaranth’s enigmatic history.

“Ever since she graced Jen Bartel’s striking cover, Amaranth captivated me,” reveals Orlando. He muses about her narrative, tinged with intrigue. When offered the chance to explore her story, Orlando grabbed it. Amaranth enters through the Last Door, flipping Wanda’s reality. This dynamic sees Wanda engaging with a potent, enigmatic being mirroring her own past battles.

Amaranth’s powers hint at a prodigious lineage, yet her life drips with sorrow. Scarlet Witch might be the key to unlocking her true potential. Marvel fans won’t have long to wait as Scarlet Witch #6 releases on Wednesday, November 20th.

The issue, complete with vivid imagery and enchanting storytelling, promises an enchanting adventure. You won’t want to miss this evolution in the tales of Marvel’s mystical heroines.
