I discovered Lore within Scarlet Witch 1994 and fell in love wit the character despite there not being much about her and the reason is how vastly different she is from ours. 

She is an ancient mystic described to live for eons and comes from a world where dark forces is common law and most of all, she relishes in her power to destroy worlds. I have a common issue in Multiverse stories where despite holding unlimited possibilities to show characters  in ways we wouldn’t expect, they always settle for ”variant who’s different in one slight way and life matches up mostly“ (cough cough Multiverse of Madness)   

But Lore is unrecognizable from our Wanda, she loves everything there is about chaos, she doesn’t fear or want to contain it, I think Wanda seeing that atleast one version of herself can become this figure of villainy is a great mental conflict that Lore provides while being super powerful. 

Her OG design still has me in a chokehold, the large voluminous hair that’s like a wild fire and the pale pink almost purple color of her outfit I love. Unpopilar opinion I don’t like her new design as it doesn’t feel like Lore anymore but just MoM Wanda reskinned which was the inspo for Russel’s design but I still don’t vibe with it. 

I do hope we see more done with Lore and maybe expand her to become a  villain of the mystic community continually messing with death and souls from below.
