I like how people make assumptions about Wanda's vows and her powers, both of which are wrong (or simply not deep enough). That gives her a hidden depth that mirrors Jean's hidden side (the Phoenix) very neatly. I like that Wanda doesn't fight power with power -- she defeats the Phoenix by negating power. And I especially like that just as in the 'real' Marvel universe, nobody seems thrilled to suddenly be normal, even though being Witchbreed/mutants has caused them so much trouble. There are never easy answers.
