Wanda’s Sons Are Back but They’re Not Here for a Hug – The Multiverse’s Most Dangerous Threat Just Arrived

For years, the tragedy of Wanda Maximoff has defined some of the most heartbreaking moments in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). From the death of her brother Pietro to the loss of Vision, Wanda’s pain has shaped her into one of the most powerful yet tragic figures in the franchise. But nothing has haunted her more than the loss of her children, Billy and Tommy. We last saw Wanda in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, seemingly sacrificing herself to destroy the Darkhold and put an end to its corrupting influence. However, the multiverse is far from done with her. In a terrifying twist of fate, Billy and Tommy have returned—not as the loving sons she once dreamed of, but as corrupted versions from another universe, seeking revenge on their own mother.

A Multiversal Distortion: How Billy and Tommy Returned

Since the introduction of the multiverse, anything has become possible in the MCU. While Wanda’s versions of Billy and Tommy from Earth-616 (the main MCU timeline) were mere fabrications of her magic in WandaVision, other realities had real versions of them.

But what if, somewhere out there, a darker version of Billy and Tommy existed? What if, in another reality, Wanda never lost them—but instead raised them with an iron fist, turning them into ruthless beings of unimaginable power? This is the nightmare that is now unfolding.

A ripple in the multiverse has opened a doorway, allowing these twisted versions of Billy and Tommy to find their way into the main MCU timeline. Unlike the innocent children Wanda once cradled in her arms, these versions are battle-hardened, filled with anger, and fueled by an unquenchable thirst for destruction.

The Evil Twins: A Darker Billy and Tommy Take Shape

The MCU has flirted with the idea of alternate versions of beloved characters before (Loki, What If…, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness), but never has there been a case where the heroes we mourned returned as pure villains. This is where Billy and Tommy’s reappearance takes a sinister turn.

Billy Maximoff, The Dark Sorcerer: In this alternate reality, Billy (a.k.a. Wiccan) never grew up to be the compassionate and wise sorcerer seen in Marvel Comics. Instead, he was trained by a corrupted version of Wanda who embraced the Darkhold’s power. His magic is raw, unhinged, and fueled by hatred. With abilities that rival even the Scarlet Witch, this Billy has one goal: punish the mother who abandoned him.

Tommy Maximoff, The Merciless Speedster: While the original Tommy (a.k.a. Speed) was an energetic and fun-loving spirit, this version is ruthless. His speed is unmatched, and his brutality knows no bounds. In his timeline, he learned that the strong survive and the weak perish. And in his mind, Wanda Maximoff is weak.

Together, these twisted twins seek not a reunion but total annihilation.

Wanda’s Struggle: Will She Fight or Fall?

For the first time, Wanda faces a threat unlike any before. She has battled Ultron, Thanos, and even Doctor Strange, but nothing could prepare her for the agony of fighting her own flesh and blood.

Would Wanda have the strength to destroy her own children if they truly posed a threat to the multiverse? Or would she let them consume her, believing that she can still save them?

This moral dilemma creates one of the most emotionally charged conflicts in MCU history. Wanda Maximoff, the most powerful sorceress alive, may finally meet her match—not from an external enemy, but from the very love that once defined her.

The Ultimate Showdown: Wanda vs. Her Own Creation

The battle that fans never expected is now inevitable. If the MCU follows this path, Wanda will have to face Billy and Tommy in an all-out war of magic, speed, and shattered emotions.

Imagine Wanda standing in the ruins of Kamar-Taj or even back in Westview, facing the twisted reflections of her lost sons.

Billy’s dark magic clashes against Wanda’s chaos energy, warping reality itself as their battle spills across dimensions. 🔹 Tommy moves faster than Wanda’s mind can process, attacking with a speed that even her magic struggles to counter. 🔹 Wanda, torn between motherly love and the need to protect the universe, hesitates. And that hesitation could cost her everything.

The Inevitable Tragedy: A Mother’s Worst Nightmare

No matter how this ends, there is no victory for Wanda. If she defeats her children, she will once again be forced to endure the pain of losing them—but this time, it will be by her own hands. If she hesitates, she risks allowing the greatest threat the multiverse has ever known to take control.

Could there be another way? Perhaps, but time is running out. The Billy and Tommy of this reality are long gone, and the ones that now stand before Wanda only know destruction.

What This Means for the MCU’s Future

The return of Wanda’s children as villains would shake the MCU to its core. It would redefine the stakes of the multiverse saga and cement Wanda’s place as the most tragic hero (or anti-hero) in Marvel history.

This storyline also opens up new possibilities:

A true Dark Scarlet Witch arc, where Wanda finally embraces her full, unchecked power. 🔹 The involvement of Doctor Strange, Wong, or even Kang the Conqueror in trying to stop the corrupted twins. 🔹 The possibility of Billy and Tommy finding redemption—or causing irreversible destruction.

Regardless of how it unfolds, one thing is certain: Wanda Maximoff’s story is far from over.

A Mother’s Love, A Universe at Risk

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has never shied away from pushing its heroes to their breaking points, forcing them to face impossible choices that test not only their strength but also the very core of their morality. But if Billy and Tommy were to return—not as the innocent children Wanda once knew, but as corrupted versions of themselves twisted by the horrors of another universe—it would mark the greatest emotional and psychological trial of Wanda Maximoff’s life.

Would she have the power to save them and undo whatever darkness had taken hold of their souls? Or would she be faced with the unthinkable—having to fight her own children to prevent them from unleashing chaos upon the multiverse? And if she hesitated for even a second, would the fabric of reality itself begin to collapse under the weight of a mother’s impossible dilemma?

No matter what fate awaits Wanda, one thing is undeniable—her most painful, most gut-wrenching chapter has yet to be written, and when it arrives, it will shake the MCU to its very core.
