Agatha Harkness has never been more well-known than now. In the recent release of the Scarlet Witch deck for the 'Marvel Champions' card game, she is one of Wanda's stalwart allies, for example:

Back at the start of the 21st century however, she appeared in a radically different form. During the Marvel Mangaverse event, she appeared in the Fantastic Four tie-in issue. While other series used stories that were inspired by anime tropes to various degrees, the FF issue was, more or less, "What if the Fantastic Four but Evangelion?"

And so...

EDIT: Tag limit, no room to give one to poor Agatha. :(

Another out-of-season Christmas post, but it does fit with this month's community theme.

So I was thinking recently of posting from the main Neon Genesis Evangelion manga (the one that began as a promotion for the anime and, while covering basically the same story, ended up taking it in rather different directions). But in troubling times like these, I feel we could all use less angst (even well-written and drawn angst) and more lightheartedness. To that end: a one-page bonus chapter from the parody manga Tony Takezaki's Neon Genesis Evangelion (tr. Carl Gustav Horn, Dark Horse, 2015). Read right to left.

In my last post, we saw the breakdown of one of the many Evangelion characters: Ritsuko Akagi. But what will become of her now?

A while back, some of you may remember this post (Oh what was I thinking with the Plath comment...)

Well, that being said, that post was about the character of Naoko Akagi, mother to scientist Ritsuko Akagi, one of the (sorta) main characters on Evangelion. Ritsuko's case is an interesting one, she's sort of a main character, and she sort of isn't. Obviously the five main characters would be Shinji, Asuka, Rei, Misato, and Kaworu, and then we have Ritsuko and Gendo. (and now meganeko Mari in the Rebuild franchise)
In 1996, after Evangelion ended, Hideaki Anno started to receive death threats from fans due to the unexpected finale that was episode 25/26. Anno was only able to complete it using the budget they had, and it wasn't helped that a few GAINAX employees were found to be embezzling money...still, Anno created the full length feature film End of Evangelion in 1997. While the final two episodes reflected what went on in the characters subconscious, EoE reflected what went on in the physical world. The film was a success, although shocked many, and the manga version of it I'm afraid, isn't much of a happy stroll through merry land either. This post will focus on Ritsuko Akagi, and her downfall and eventual (you guessed it) death.

We need more Evangelion posts. Naoko Akagi is one sick woman. Not as insane as Kyoko Zeppelin Soryu, but still. Don't know who she is? She is a twisted woman. Much like Sylvia Plath.
