Anonymous asked: In Regards to Wanda and Pietro Mutant hertiage ala stan lee and Magento as their father ala some smart genius, If a Comic book writer/artist/s came to you and said they wanted to write a story/s with them without your recent retcon would you let them?

brevoortformspring:

Stan Lee didn’t have Wanda and Pietro as Magneto’s kids–that didn’t happen until more than a decade after Stan stopped writing the books, and he was on another coast to boot.

The Marvel Universe is a consistent universe, which means that if you’re going to write for it, you are obligated to play the ball where it lies. So no, a writer couldn’t just come in and ignore that story. It doesn’t work that way.

Tom, the anon meant Stan wrote them to be mutants, someone else (Englehart) who wrote them to be Magneto’s kids.
Way to miss what was clearly being said.
I can’t wait for you people to be out of Marvel. We will set things right.
Ball will be in our court.
