Family matters! The Scarlet Witch's loyalties will be tested when an enemy of the Kree/Skrull Empire falls through the Last Door, desperate for help avenging their fallen comrades. Will Wanda honor the commitment she made to helping those in need? Or will her love for her son Wiccan and his husband, Hulkling - who happens to be the emperor of that Empire - triumph over all? Then, a familiar figure appears at Wanda's shop, and it seems rumors of his death have been greatly exaggerated. But does he come as friend or foe? And why has a corner of Oklahoma been transformed into the Emerald City?! Plus: The magic-hating Hexfinder has sworn vengeance on all witches and won't stop until Wanda is a trophy on her wall! Prepare for a battle between chaos magic and alchemical might! Collecting SCARLET WITCH (2023) #6-10.
