Midnight Suns #1 arrived in comic book stores this past Wednesday to kick off a saga that promises to redefine Marvel magic. 

In the opening issue of this five-issue limited series, fans witnessed the rise of a new mystical threat and the impact it’ll have on prominent magic users across the planet...including Agatha Harkness! In typical Agatha fashion, the ancient witch seems to know more than anyone about the dark power that’s been unleashed and has her own plans for dealing with it. 

To learn the mystery of her motives, writer Ethan Sacks and artist Luigi Zagaria will reveal more about Agatha’s shrouded past than ever before starting in Mighnight Suns #2. Is the Marvel Universe ready to learn Agatha’s secrets?

We'll see, but we're sure you'll notice that the character - typically portrayed as an elderly woman in the comic books - has been given an MCU-style makeover. Looking very much like Kathryn Hahn's take on the character in WandaVision, you can take a closer look at the new Agatha below in a design sheet by Zagaria and a variant cover for issue #3 by InHyuk Lee.

"Agatha Harkness has been a mysterious character that had Marvel fans under a spell long before her MCU debut in WandaVision," Sacks says. "Getting to reveal some of her comics backstory, from her younger, more passionate, and less cynical days has been, well, magical."

Since her first appearance in Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's Fantastic Four #94, Agatha has played many roles from Franklin Richards’ babysitter to Wanda Maximoff’s mentor, but her journey in Midnight Suns promises to usher in her biggest transformation yet! Be there when the sins of Agatha’s past finally catch up to her in issue #2 this November. 

What do you guys think of Agatha's overhauled appearance in the Marvel Universe? Let us know in the comments section.

I'm sorry but how does this look anything like the Agatha from wandavision? She looks more like scarlet witch from that movie.

@Origame - yeah, it's the kinda same outfit but in purple instead of red.

Guess it's because she's not an old woman anymore that the comparison is made?

@bkmeijer1 - even in terms of just de aging doesn't even work. This Agatha is like half the age of the actress in wandavision.

bkmeijer1 - 9/16/2022, 8:20 AM
@Origame - true. Maybe the long black hair then? I don't know

Also, you made me look up Kathryn Hahn. I really thought she was younger.

That's a look that I think can work in live-action just as well.

And to be honest, I kinda look forward to Coven of Chaos after the Werewolf-by-Night trailer. It got me hyped for more fantastical stuff, and Agatha is the only other thing right now in that corner of the MCU as well.

Maybe she is Ultimate Universe Agatha.

Or maybe they won't explain it at all.

I remember when she was proper disgusting.
