The
after credit scene in Captain America: The Winter Soldier featured Baron Von
Strucker played by Thomas Kretschmann, Loki's staff, and the "imprisoned" Pietro and Wanda,
or Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.
At
the time we all wondered how Marvel would frame the characters into the MCU given
that they can't use the characters original backstory to explain why they have
superpowers. Fans began speculating that perhaps they were Inhumans and that the
powers had been acquired through exposure to the Terrigen Mist.
Well,
in what seems like an attempt from Marvel to explain the situation before it becomes
one when it reaches screens on May 1st, the publisher has released a digital
comic called Avengers: Age of Ultron Prelude - This Scepter'd Isle. In the comic,
"it's revealed that Strucker, acting on behalf of Hydra, used the scepter
on test subjects in the fictional European city of Sokovia to
"unlock" any powers they might have."
Earlier
I said that the Twins were prisoners of Strucker, implying that perhaps they
had been forced to become lab rats, however this preview of the comic states
that they are willing participants, and that emphasizes a point Elizabeth Olsen
(Wanda) made in a previous interview where she talked about what drives the
Twins to do what they do.
"Our
characters have a lot of anger, especially towards Tony Stark, and we want
revenge," said Olsen. "We meet Ultron, and he's someone who preaches
peace and… believes what we believe, which is that the Avengers create
destruction and that Tony Stark's bomb is responsible for killing our parents."
What
do you think?
