“I am going feral”: Marvel fans react to Agatha All Along’s queer romance
Marvel sapphics, rise! The latest episode of Agatha All Along confirmed a long-standing fan theory about two major characters.
Major spoilers ahead. In episode four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe series, Kathryn Hahn’s titular anti-hero continues to travel down The Witches Road with her new coven: “Teen” (Joe Locke), Jennifer Kale (Sasheer Zamata), Alice Wu-Gulliver (Ali Ahn) and Lilia Calderu (Patti LuPone).
As a result of Sharon Davis’ (Debra Jo Rupp) shock death in episode three, the witches are forced to summon a replacement Green Witch, who happens to be Rio Vidal (Aubrey Plaza), the same witch who attempted to kill Agatha in the premiere (and sensually licked her blood).
With the return of Plaza’s fan-favourite character, Agatha‘s sapphic levels were elevated, quite significantly. From Jennifer, Alice and Lilia admiring Rio’s appearance to Agatha seductively tricking Rio in the third trial by airing their conversation on a speaker, it finally makes sense as to why Plaza described the series as ‘Marvel’s gayest ever’.
