This is kind of a reach. If we use this logic then Spider-man and Cross Bones are also “teased” to make an appearance in this.

Apologies for reposting this, but I was late to the last discussion.... Okay, since the show has already referenced the Grim Reaper, Glamor and Illusion and Bova the cow lady, I figured I’d list some other obscure characters/events from Vision and Wanda comics history that people might want to look out for:

Norman Webster - Vizh and Wanda’s real estate agent in the comics who found them their house in the suburbs. He meets Pietro’s wife, Crystal of the Inhumans, at their housewarming party and the two eventually have an affair. I’m expecting some kind of reference to this... it’s too absurd not to get one. And since Vizh’s (possibly communist) coworker is named Norm...

Holly LaDonna - a teenage girl that Wanda took on as an apprentice in witchcraft while she was pregnant.

Salem’s Seven - a team of magic villains, children of Nicholaus Scratch, grandchildren of Agatha Harkness. The main antagonists behind the adventure that led to Wanda’s pregnancy.

Samhain - The spirit of Halloween bound to the Druidic tome, he was an antagonist in both Vision and the Scarlet Witch limited series. He transformed various trick-or-treaters into actual monsters on their first Halloween in the suburbs.

Isbisa/ Dr. I.S. Bishoff/ Simon Meke - A golden age villain, I don’t know how he’d be involved (unless working for SWORD). However, the events that he caused may be referenced/replicated... mainly, the Vision melted his arm when he tried to reach inside of him, and then had to amputate the remains himself in order to snap out of shock and help save Wanda. The remainder of the original V&tSW involved trying to repair him.

Henry Gyrich/ Raymond Sikorski- Gyrich was the main thorn in the side of the Avengers for years as their government liaison. He was apparently a character in Fox’s stable, however, since he was used in the first X-men movie there... but obviously, that’s no longer an issue. Sikorski followed him and was more supportive of the Avengers, and Wanda and Vizh, going to bat for them when the government wanted Vision in custody (for taking over Earth’s computer systems.)

Nekra Sinclair - a repeating antagonist in V&tSW vol 2., and the love interest of the Grim Reaper. The stronger her hate, the more powerful/invulnerable she becomes.

The Black Talon / Samuel David Barone - Voodoo master. Raises the dead a lot, and works with the Grim Reaper multiple times (was the one who originally brought Wonder Man back from the dead.)

When are we expecting the show to start actually revealing stuff? Hopefully it doesn't wait so long it can't have fun with it - but I doubt that from Marvel.

Watched the first two again with the family and they are much better without expectations of getting more than you get. I think they will be great to rewatch in the context of the whole show too.

I remember Grim Reaper in Earths Mightiest Heroes. One of the coolest characters for sure

Just spitballing and pure speculating, but I guess if they were to introduce a Simon Williams Wonder Man, it stands to reason they'd introduce his brother as well, and they could mix it into the greater universe by sprinkling in the corporate and Maggia aspects of their origin story with Stark Industries and Baron Zemo's powering and poisoning Simon into the Avengers, and ultimately use Simon's brainwaves to reboot Vision.

Meh, I just really wanted to post this splashpage.

I just wanna see Wonder Man be introduced in this.

I’m not ready to rule anything out but the fact Grim Reapers back story is so convoluted and would need to be retconned to fit in the MCU I think this might just be a metaphorical/symbolic Easter egg instead of a tease of what’s to come. For one you’d have to retcon his brother from being Visions brain model and in doing so you take away his motivation to hate Vision. Also I don’t think they’d introduce and kill him off offscreen. In the comics Visions wife Virginia beats Grim Reaper to death and then buried him in the backyard to try to maintain the idealistic suburban lifestyle Vision so badly wanted. I can see them using it as Wanda didn’t physically beat Grim Reaper but she did metaphorically beat death by bringing Vision back. The fact that the helmet is hidden can be a clue that Vision has no memory of dying and Wanda is hiding the fact from him. Also in a trailer from a later episode we see a clip where Agnes asks Vision if she’s dead and when he asks why she would think that she responds with because you are. So I do think he has no recollection of his death. The concept is roughly the same and they can still have it come back and bite them in the ass like in the comic.
