jac schaeffer in 2021: what if I make a banging show about a false reality where the setting and costumes are different every episode and everyone thinks that agatha harkness is manipulating the whole thing but the false reality was actually created completely by accident by someone named maximoff which I will heavily hint throughout the show but it will still be a shock to everyone when it's revealed

AGATHA ALL ALONG (2024) Familiar by Thy Side - 1.06 dir. Gandja Monteiro.

The implications of Rio Vidal/Death’s introduction to the MCU are enormous.

Now we know in retrospect that every single MCU character who has ever died was escorted onward by her.

So it’s not just Nicky, Sharon, Alice, and Lilia.

Abraham Erskine, Meredith Quill, Ho Yinsen, Phil Coulson, Frigga, Pietro Maximoff, Peggy Carter, T’Chaka, Odin, Hela, Erik Killmonger, Heimdall, OG!Loki, OG!Gamora, Thanos, Natasha Romanoff, Tony Stark, Aunt May, Jane Foster, T’Challa, Ramonda, Maria Hill … all of them saw her when their time came.

And it makes sense that Marc Spector & Steven Grant never saw her, because it was not their time yet and she knew they’d be sent back.

Do you think you could explain the backstories & lore of Maria Russoff + Lilia Calderu? I’ve tried their wiki pages but the more I read the less it made sense 😵‍💫

I really don't know where the confusion is coming from. The wiki articles are pretty straightforward, and each of these characters only has three appearances, including one appearance together-- so that's five issues total. You could probably spend... I don't know, an hour or so reading, and you would know everything there is to know about Lilia Calderu and Maria Russoff. And, forgive me if you already know about this, but I'm starting to get the sense that people don't realize how many websites there are where you can read comics online, for free. It might take a little extra digging to find older titles, but they're out there. Get a decent ad blocker for your web browser, and you're good to go.

Having said that-- Maria and Lilia are both minor characters who mostly exist in the margins of other people's stories, so if you're not familiar with subjects like Baron Mordo, the Book of Cagliostro, or Werewolf-by-Night, you might feel like you're missing some context. I would encourage you to read up on those topics, if you haven't already.

Lilia Calderu is part of an extended family of Romani characters who are descended from a sorcerer named Cagliostro.* Lilia and her foremothers, as the self-proclaimed "witch queens of the gypsies" have safeguarded a magical tome called the Book of Cagliostro for generations, and at one point, Lilia briefly possessed the Serpent Crown of Set. Her family also has close ties to Doctor Strange's longtime enemy, Baron Mordo. As I've said before, they mostly exist as racist set-dressing for Mordo's backstory, and there is an unfortunate-- and weirdly convoluted-- bit of intergenerational incest going on there as well. Mordo eventually seduced Lilia and stole the Book of Cagliostro from her. She attempted to get revenge on him by manipulating Doctor Strange, but later sacrificed herself to save Stephen's life. That's all you really need to know-- she's dead, and she never got to have much substance, so if they ever do bring her back, any development she gets will probably be original material.

Maria Russoff is the grandmother of Jack Russell, the original Werewolf-by-Night. Her husband, Gregor Russoff, was a baron from Transia and, in addition to being a practicing warlock with ties to Chthon and the Darkhold, was afflicted with lycanthropy, which was passed down to his son, Gregory, and grandson, Jack. After Gregory became a werewolf, Maria was cast out of her village and was taken in by a local Romani community, with whom she apparently spent the rest of her life. At some point, Maria became an adept sorceress and used her magical abilities to seek avenge the deaths of her Roma friends who had been killed by racists. This quest led Maria, now an elderly woman, to cross paths with her grandson Jack and his ally Topaz, and Maria died saving Jack's life. Noticing a pattern?

Lilia and Maria appear alongside Margali Szardos in Mystic Arcana: Scarlet Witch. This story is set during Wanda's early childhood in Transia, which is fine for Wanda, but the timeline for each of the other women is unclear. I don't want to say it's completely contradictory, but it's a little hard to make sense of. Here, the three of them have formed a coven based out of Maria and Gregor's estate, Castle Russoff. Lilia is still in possession of both the Book of Cagliostro and the Serpent Crown. Having foreseen Wanda's potential to become a powerful witch, they seek to bring her into their fold, which doesn't work out well for any of them. Lilia loses possession of the Crown, and the group presumably goes their separate ways.

The occultist Cagliostro was a real person, born Giuseppe Balsamo in 18th century Sicily. He was well-traveled, and cultivated a serious reputation as powerful magician, but is remembered posthumously as something of a charlatan. Regardless, he left a lasting impact on popular culture and is often referenced in media.

The Marvel character Cagliostro is depicted as in immortal sorcerer who was born thousands of years ago and is apparently Indian in origin, which might lend some context to his involvement with Romani characters. It should go without saying that most depictions of Cagliostro and the Calderu family are pretty offensive.

Patti LuPone is playing Lilia Calderu in the m*c*u...

Sounds like it! If anyone doesn't know, Lilia Calderu is comic book character who first appeared in Marvel Premiere #12 in 1973, where she's introduced as a "Witch Queen of the Gypsies" who was responsible for safeguarding the Book of Cagliostro.

The Calderu family appear throughout several Doctor Strange titles and other magic-focused comics. They are an expansive, multigenerational family of Romani characters, but, unfortunately, there's not much substance to them. They wear exotic clothing and wield mystical powers, but unlike the Maximoffs and von Dooms, they don't really represent any aspect of Romani reality-- they're just stereotypes, and harmful ones at that.

Lilia is a clear example of the deeply-embedded racism in the public imagination of witches, particularly in genre fiction. The deeper the M C U goes into this world, the more that will be exposed. Marvel's magical world is rife with gypsy witches, and I don't have a perfect solution to that problem, but I know the answer isn't whitewashing.

Mystic Arcana: Scarlet Witch || Lilia is pictured alongside Margali Szardos, Wanda Maximoff, and Maria Russoff
