YMMV / X-Men: The Trial of Magneto

• Epileptic Trees:
  • The first issue hadn't even dropped and the fans were already speculating on whether or not Magneto actually killed the Scarlet Witch or whether it was Mystique and whether or not Wanda will be resurrected as a mutant again or to leave her as just a witch to keep things more in line with the MCU. This only grew with the S.W.O.R.D. tie-in to Hellfire Gala, as that issue depicts Magneto and Wanda reconciling in a very touching moment, casting a huge shadow of doubt over the possibility of him killing her — at least if it was done with malice.
  • A prominent theory posited that Wanda could be revived as a teenager/young girl^note Given that Charles mentioned that the back-ups of the twins are very old, predating her infamous "No more mutants" moment and also ridding her of all the baggage that has plagued the character since the early 2000's.
• Heartwarming Moments: In issue 3, as a trio of Kaiju attacks Krakoa, Northstar tells Captain America that he’s proud to have the Avengers fighting alongside the X-Men in defense of Krakoa. Additionally, Cap apologizes for having to put dinner on a rain check, especially since Northstar’s husband was cooking it.
• I Knew It!: After Wanda was revealed to have been snuck into the Hellfire Gala by Magneto, many immediately assumed that the trial was going to happen because she was going to get killed. Lo and behold, X-Factor (2020) ends with Wanda's corpse being discovered.
• Like You Would Really Do It: Almost nobody believes that the Scarlet Witch will stay dead for very long, especially with Krakoa's method of mutant resurrection (despite Wanda not being a mutant...for now) and a hit streaming show. At the end of the first issue, in fact, Wanda notices that she's died...but is somehow not dead.
