Agatha All Along has ended with an exciting two-part finale. The show has given careful attention to its characters while leaving room for future stories in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Kathryn Hahn plays the main character, Agatha Harkness. She creates a disorganized coven.
A cheerful teenager named Billy (Joe Locke), who is later known as Wiccan, pushes Agatha to gather a group to travel the Witches’ Road. The coven includes Sharon Davis (Debra Jo Rupp), Alice Wu-Gulliver (Ali Ahn), Lilia Calderu (Patti LuPone), and Jennifer Kale (Sasheer Zamata). They face many challenges and dangers.
The Road, however, is not what it seems. It is a creation from the mind of Billy, the son of Wanda Maximoff, also known as the Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen). Billy’s mind creates a hex based on the magic that Agatha has crafted over many years.
The Witches’ Road is a trick meant to attract witches so they can lose their magic and provide Agatha with more power. However, death is inevitable. Rio Vidal, also known as Lady Death (Aubrey Plaza), plays a big part in this story.
All the witches, except Billy and Jennifer, meet their end along the Road, and soon Agatha joins them. In the end, she becomes a ghost. This finale offers a beautiful conclusion to Agatha’s story, thanks to showrunner Jac Schaeffer. Yet, this is the MCU, a world always ready for new stories. After the finale, many important questions remain.
What Happened to Tommy Maximoff’s Soul?
In WandaVision, Billy and Tommy Maximoff, played by Julian Hilliard and Jett Klyne, show up as young boys created by Wanda. They are spontaneous creations. When Wanda’s Hex collapses, both boys vanish. The last time we see them, they are saying goodnight to Wanda and Vision (Paul Bettany). Fans are curious about what happens to Tommy. While Billy is able to escape death and find a new body, Tommy does not share the same fate.
Billy grows up fast. He finds himself in the body of William Kaplan. He has visions and memories of his brother, Tommy, focusing on their final moments in Westview. Billy and Agatha, now in ghost form, have a new mission. They want to find Tommy. In the comics, Tommy is reborn in the body of Tommy Shepherd. Fans wonder if they will have to wait a long time for this to happen in the MCU.
Where Is Vision? Was S.W.O.R.D. Aware of Billy’s Hex?
The story of WandaVision heavily involves S.W.O.R.D. and their monitoring of Westview. S.W.O.R.D. quickly begins to investigate after they notice the strange happenings in the town.
They watch Wanda’s sitcom-style broadcasts and try to understand what is going on. When Billy leaves the Witches’ Road, his experiences echo Wanda’s final moments in WandaVision. The people of Westview witness the last battle between Agatha and Death and see Billy’s departure.
If Billy’s hex works like his mother’s, then S.W.O.R.D. and S.H.I.E.L.D. might have detected the events in Agatha All Along. There are also many questions surrounding Vision. He is still missing, and with the upcoming Disney+ series Vision Quest, fans are eager for answers. The White Vision, who has Vision’s memories, is still out there. What will it mean for him to discover that his children are reborn?
How Did Agatha & Death’s Romance Begin?
The finale of Agatha All Along gives us some background on Agatha and her connection to Death. We see Agatha in labor, and Death comes for her child. Agatha pleads with Death, saying she will hate her forever if she takes her son.
Death agrees to give Agatha more time, but it is clear that there is a complicated romantic history between them. Agatha tells her coven that she is a scar for Death, showing how deep their connection is. It is hard to make Death cry, which suggests their relationship has many layers. Fans are curious to know more about their story and how it has developed.
How Did Agatha Get the Darkhold?
In the earlier episodes, many believe Agatha made terrible sacrifices, including offering her son’s soul to Mephisto, to gain the Darkhold. However, the finale reveals a much sadder truth. Agatha had a son named Nicholas (Abel Lysenko). Death offers him a few more years of life, but in the end, Agatha cannot save him. Fans wonder why she allowed the lies about her sacrifice to continue. How did she truly come into possession of the Darkhold?
Who Gets to Become a Ghost & Why?
When Billy tries to send Agatha’s spirit away, he asks her why she won’t leave. Agatha explains that she cannot face her son. The guilt she feels is too great. Even with the witches she killed and the magic she took, she could not save Nicholas.
This raises a question: is personal motivation enough to remain as a ghost? Why could Agatha’s mother, Evanora Harkness (Kate Forbes), return? Was that just due to the Ouija board? As Agatha points out, the rules for being a ghost are not clear-cut.
What’s Next For Jennifer Kale?
After learning that Agatha was responsible for her being bound for 100 years, Jennifer Kale performs an unbinding ritual. With her powers restored, she escapes the Witches’ Road. As the only witch left alive from the coven, fans wonder what lies ahead for Jennifer.
In the comics, she is related to Johnny Blaze, also known as Ghost Rider. This connection could open the door for many interesting stories in the future. Agatha Harkness is known to be a witch without a coven, so Jennifer will need to find her place.
Did Death Come For Wanda Maximoff?
Every viewer, whether they are devoted fans or casual watchers of the MCU, is curious about Wanda Maximoff’s fate. Is she still alive? In Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Wanda seems to sacrifice herself to destroy the Darkhold. She lifts a massive temple at Wundagore and crushes herself beneath it.
Did Death visit Wanda to lead her away from life? This mirrors the scene we see with Alice. Is there a chance that Wanda could be reincarnated, like Tommy was? She has only been the Scarlet Witch for one film and the finale of WandaVision. Surely, her story is far from over.
Exactly How Powerful Is Wiccan / Billy Maximoff?
Billy Maximoff, also known as Wiccan, shows his immense power throughout Agatha All Along. Death herself recognizes Billy’s ability to avoid her. If he does not willingly give himself to her, he could continue to reincarnate and escape Death.
Billy has just started his journey as Wiccan, but he has already shown great strength. He can read minds and communicate telepathically. He can possess others and control their actions. He also has the ability to fly, cast blue magic, and use telekinesis. Fans wonder how far the MCU’s Wiccan can go with his powers.
Will We Get an MCU Adaptation of The Children’s Crusade?
Many fans think that Tommy’s soul will eventually be found and that he will have a new body waiting for him. The vision Billy experienced—a boy drowning after a prank—must lead somewhere. The thought of Agatha helping Billy find Tommy is exciting, but what happens after that?
There is a Marvel Comics story called Avengers: The Children’s Crusade that many hope to see adapted. In this story, “Young Avenger Wiccan sets out to find the one person who may be able to help him—the Scarlet Witch, the woman purported to be his mother,” as Marvel describes.
The Billy in the MCU seems hesitant to see Wanda as his mother, who may be dead or missing. The Young Avengers have been introduced since Avengers: Endgame and are ready to take on the narrative of The Children’s Crusade.
What Are the Themes in Agatha All Along?
Agatha All Along touches on several important themes throughout its episodes. One significant theme is family. The bond between Billy and Tommy shows the importance of family ties, even beyond death. The search for Tommy’s soul reveals how strong the connection between brothers can be.
Additionally, the relationship between Agatha and Death highlights how love can lead to both happiness and pain. Agatha’s struggle with her past decisions and her love for her son emphasizes the theme of sacrifice.
Another theme is power. Throughout the series, characters seek power for different reasons. Agatha seeks power to survive, while Billy’s powers develop as he grows into his role as Wiccan. The Darkhold represents the dark side of power, showing how it can corrupt those who seek it for selfish reasons. The consequences of pursuing power without understanding its cost are made clear through Agatha’s story.
Finally, identity plays a crucial role in the narrative. Billy struggles with his identity as Wiccan and his relationship to Wanda. He tries to find his place in the world while understanding the legacy of his mother and father. Agatha’s journey reflects her own struggles with identity and her past, revealing how past choices shape who we become.
