WandaVision is such a weird vibe because it's like "the character who did nothing interesting and you didn't care about for like seven movies is now the best"

For the longest time, she really was just a relic of the 60s, when female superheroes only had powers that would let them stand away from combat and point at things.

I like how they gave Sue Storm powers in this genre ("invisible force fields") after belatedly realizing the original power they gave her didn't let her participate in combat AT ALL

Aside from sneaking up on people and hitting them with a frying pan, I suppose.

Lol yeah they could've gone the "perfect assassin" route with her but at the time that did not fit the personality they wanted her to have

Oh man, that would’ve been so cool. Though her first victim would probably have been Reed.

Warren Ellis' edgelord take on an evil version of the Fantastic Four in Planetary went right there The evil Sue Storm just is the Invisible Man as imagined by HG Wells and Plato You know, if invisibility is this ultimate sociopath superpower why would women be immune to that

Especially a woman as frustrated as Sue Storm. I still have hope that we’ll get a 60s period piece about F4 that’s basically Mad Men with superpowers.

I really liked the one part of the Fantastic Four running gag in Arrested Development where Lucille discovers her kinship to Sue in therapy "Everyone thinks I'm the villain... But I'm the Invisible Woman"

C'mon she's literally called "Invisible Woman" it's such a fucking gimme for a feminist take

Edgelord Sue Storm as a second wave feminist becomes even better when you factor Namor into things.
