“#WandaVision Episode 8 Shocking Mid-Credits and Its Future Implications Explained”
Wanda never stole the Vision’s body
The suspicions we reserved for SWORD’s acting director, Tyler Hayward, are shaping up to be rather concrete as we now know that Wanda never stole Vision’s body from the organization’s headquarters. What Hayward showed his agents, Monica, Darcy, and Jimmy earlier was a tampered footage of the time when Wanda visited SWORD to take Vision’s body with her to bury.
At the time, Hayward tried to egg her own by showing how instead of putting Vthe body in cold storage, they have been experimenting on Vision and have him in pieces. Even when Wanda implored that he is all she has, Hayward refused to give the body to him as the vibranium Vision is made of is worth $3 billion. While an initially infuriated Wanda did break the glass to fly into the lab, when she couldn’t sense Vision in his mutilated body, she was heartbroken and left. The Vision she is living with, in Westview, is just an illusion created from her magic, to be precise chaos magic, while the body of the real Vision has always been with Hayward.
A “new” White Vision comes to life
Episode 8’s mid-credit scene is hands-down, the biggest bombshell revelation that the MCU has ever divulged in its history of mid-credit and post-credit scenes. While we already learned that Wanda never stole the Vision’s body, we now see that Hayward has succeeded in reassembling the Avenger.
His original plan, all along, was for Wanda to bring him back to life in the way he wants but as that never happened, he has now taken a different path- using the residual magic in the drone that Wanda dumped at Hayward’s feet, to charge up Vision. It works- a different version of the Vision comes to life and given that he is a result of Hayward’s twisted and rage-filled mind, it is obvious that him being white instead of having the classic maroonish-red superhero color is not the only drastic change he has gone through.
What is White Vision like in the comics and what it means for the MCU?
For weeks now, we had been wondering what Hayward’s secret Project Cataract was and speculating that it is probably to get his hands on Wanda’s miraculously resurrected Vision. But turns out, Cataract was just a reference to the Vision’s body he had and how he was looking for ways to reanimate him as a sentient weapon, in violation of the Avenger’s living will. And now, he has finally achieved his goal.
This new development in WandaVision appears to be directly lifted from John Byrne’s “Vision Quest” storyline as the “new” White Vision shares striking similarities with the 1989 appearance of the character in the comics. In the comics, the Vision was created by Ultron and Hany Pym’s programming and humanized by the then-diseased Simon Williams a.k.a. Wonder Man’s brainwaves.
But then Cameron Brock (who was being manipulated by Immortus a.k.a. Kang the Conqueror) used his massive force to kidnap Vision and dismantled him. While Hank Pym managed to put him back together, Wonder Man refused to let his brain patterns be implemented a second time as the earlier process had literally felt like someone “ripped out his soul.” So, what came back to life was a colorless and emotionless White Vision, who didn’t retain his prior memories or humanity.
In the MCU, when Wanda killed him in Infinity War or when Thanos reanimated and then killed him again, he lost his color the second his essence left his synthezoid form. In both the comics and the films, his color is a symbol of his humanity, his love for others, his compassion and kindness- thus, meaning that he was never merely an android created in a lab.
When Wanda said that she “can’t feel” him anymore when she touched his dismembered body, which means his true essence is gone and what is left behind is an empty vibranium husk now being operated with Wanda’s currently destructive chaos magic. This “new” Vision has all the intelligence of the former Vision but none of his warmth which is exactly like the infinitely deadly version of the synthezoid Ultron wanted to create in Age of Ultron.
In the comics, though the White Vision was ultimately restored to his original hued-form and regained his emotions, his new body was taken over by Anti-Vision, his villainous counterpart from an alternate Earth, who fought against the Avengers. While that’s not how the story is progressing in WandaVision, chances are that the arc of White Vision and Anti-Vision will be merged in the show. So, we can expect to see Westview’s Vision and also Wanda going up against this brand new synthezoid and no matter which one wins, looks like Wanda will be witnessing Vision’s death for the third time.
But we still reserve hope that the original Vision can return as it is widely speculated that Shuri managed to make a copy of his memories while she was trying to remove the Mind Stone from him. If that’s indeed the case, maybe somehow, we will see Vision regaining his memories, reverting to his earlier form, and hopefully, Wanda will then get the happy ending she desperately seeks.
