Magic is a complex topic in Marvel., but it is vitally important in – Agatha, who else? (Agatha, all together). Especially since over its 85-year history, the publishing house has changed its opinion and point of view on the presentation of this genre in all its franchises.

On the other hand, considering it an autonomous force capable of competing with the forces of aliens and robots.
The above is the source of how the Marvel Cinematic Universe has so far shown magic in its productions. From small flashes to a peculiar ability to destroy everything in its path. The truth is that there is no single description, much less moments that would be too precise to describe this ability.

Which opens up a spectrum of interests for all types characters and creatures from the studio’s universe.

Thus, characters with similar characteristics develop their abilities through study, practice, and books containing inherited or collected wisdom.
