21. Rio Debuts as Lady Death – Hood, Skull, and All!
Aubrey Plaza’s Rio officially steps into her full Lady Death look, wearing the classic dark cloak and hood that Marvel comic fans will recognize. While her version has a unique twist, with only the bottom half of her face as a skull, it’s a thrilling nod to the character’s terrifying comic book appearance. Marvel has given Rio’s Lady Death a visually memorable debut that plays up the mystery and dark allure of the character.
20. Thanos’ Legacy? A “Sacred Balance” Mention
When Rio warns that Billy’s resurrection of William Kaplan disrupts the “sacred balance,” it’s hard not to think of Thanos and his infamous goal of balancing the universe by eliminating half of all life. This subtle callback hints at the overarching theme of balance and its significance in the MCU. Could it be a veiled tribute to the Mad Titan himself?
19. Agatha’s Role in Jennifer’s Binding Spell
Remember that binding spell placed on Jennifer 100 years ago, as revealed back in episode 3? Turns out, Agatha was the one who supplied the spell to the Boston doctor, setting in motion Jennifer’s century-long imprisonment. In episode 8, Agatha comes to terms with her role in this dark chapter, giving Jennifer the chance to finally reclaim her powers.
18. Voices from WandaVision – Billy Hears Wanda and Vision
In an emotional callback, Billy hears his parents’ voices from WandaVision’s finale as he and Agatha work to bring Tommy’s spirit back. Vision’s reassuring words and Wanda’s gratitude tug at the heartstrings, reminding fans of their tragic family story in Westview. It’s a haunting moment, symbolizing Billy’s journey to becoming Wiccan.
17. Speed’s Super Shoes
Billy and Agatha find a vessel for Tommy, hinted to be Thomas Shepherd. Notably, the boy wears blue-and-white shoes adorned with an “S” – a subtle nod to Speed, Tommy’s superhero alias. Marvel fans will love the attention to detail as the series teases more Young Avengers content.
16. Wiccan’s Full Costume Debut
For the first time, Billy dons his full red-and-blue Wiccan outfit straight from the comics, marking his evolution as a hero. While WandaVision gave us a Halloween preview, Agatha All Along finally gives Wiccan his costume in all its glory, solidifying Billy’s place among Marvel’s mystical ranks.
15. Agatha’s Costume Revival – A Powerful Transformation
Agatha regains her powers in episode 9, wearing her iconic WandaVision outfit once more. This look not only symbolizes her return to full strength but is also the costume she’s seen in when she sacrifices herself to save Wiccan. Agatha’s return to form is a powerful moment that Marvel fans won’t soon forget.
14. Parallels to WandaVision’s Finale – Wiccan’s Farewell
In an emotionally charged scene, Wiccan mirrors his mother’s journey from WandaVision, pulling up his hood and leaving Westview. This shot feels almost like a tribute, bringing Wiccan’s journey full circle while emphasizing the bond between mother and son.
13. Movie Posters and Homages in Billy’s Room
The posters on Billy’s walls change from William’s to include Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Saw, Carrie, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, all hinting at his darker journey on the Witches’ Road. The Wizard of Oz poster remains, tying together the room’s eclectic collection.
12. The Witches’ Road – Billy’s Wizard of Oz Inspiration
Billy’s creation of the Witches’ Road becomes clear in episode 8. Echoes of The Wizard of Oz are apparent, from the yellow brick road to the colorful trees, illustrating Billy’s growing powers of creation. Could this foreshadow his future as the powerful Demiurge?
11. Demiurge Hints – Lilia’s Reading Comes Full Circle
Lilia’s tarot reading in episode 7 foreshadowed Billy’s fate as a creator. As Billy taps into his powers on the Witches’ Road, the prophecy hints at his future as the Demiurge, a god-like figure in the Marvel Comics universe. This fascinating foreshadowing suggests a future storyline Marvel fans will want to keep an eye on.
10. Nicholas Scratch’s Origins – Born “From Scratch”
In a classic Marvel twist, episode 9 opens with Agatha giving birth to Nicholas Scratch in 1750, emphasizing that he was “made from scratch.” This new origin story breathes life into a character who has had a significant impact on Marvel’s supernatural lore.
9. The Ballad and Bell – Nicholas’ Legacy
Agatha’s haunting ballad, introduced in episode 2, turns out to be Nicholas’ creation. After stealing a witch’s bell and using it to lure witches to his mother, Nicholas unwittingly left a powerful artifact for Agatha’s use. This sinister connection reveals Agatha’s cunning from the very beginning.
8. Agatha’s “Purple” Power Reference
Nicholas urges Agatha to “use her purple,” a phrase that plays off her premiere struggle to reclaim her purple magic. This full-circle moment shows Agatha’s powers and how her identity has been tied to them since the start of her journey.
7. Dandelion Seed in Agatha’s Locket
Agatha’s dandelion seed from her locket, used to complete her Witches’ Road journey, was a memento from a memory with Nicholas. This touching detail ties their bond to her ongoing mission and connects back to her role as a complex, enduring character in Marvel’s mystical lore.
6. “Use Your Purple”: A Colorful Reference
As if the magical intricacies weren’t enough, Nicholas asks Agatha if she can “use her purple,” referring to her distinctive magical powers. This playful nod not only enhances the connection between mother and son but also harkens back to the very first episode of Agatha All Along, where she cleverly convinces Rio to hold off on harming her until she “gets her purple back.” It’s a delightful callback that emphasizes Agatha’s resourcefulness and cunning throughout the series.
5. Dandelion Seed in Agatha’s Locket: A Cherished Memory
In a tender moment in Agatha All Along episode 8, Agatha discovers a dandelion seed nestled in her locket. This seemingly innocuous item holds a wealth of sentimental value, as it symbolizes her bond with Nicholas. The episode features a nostalgic scene of them blowing on dandelions, tying the past and present together beautifully. This simple yet profound moment reminded me of the importance of memories, and how they shape who we are.
4. Wiccan’s Costume Evolution: From Halloween to Hero
As the finale unfolds, I couldn’t help but squeal with excitement as Wiccan dons his full red-and-blue superhero costume, moving beyond the Halloween getup we saw in WandaVision. Seeing him fully realized in his comic book attire felt like a rite of passage, not just for him, but for all fans of the Marvel universe. It was as if he stepped out of the pages of the comics and into our hearts, embodying the superhero he was always meant to be.
3. The Heartfelt Reunion: Wiccan and His Powers
As Wiccan journeys further into the Witches’ Road, the stakes rise. He ultimately discovers the vessel for Tommy, all while channeling the essence of his family. Hearing the voices of Wanda and Vision from WandaVision’s finale is a heart-wrenching moment, showcasing the powerful connections that bind these characters. The pride and love radiating from their words serve as a reminder of the family ties that transcend even the toughest challenges.
2. Easter Eggs Galore: A Love Letter to Comic Fans
The double-episode finale is a treasure trove of Easter eggs and references, making it a feast for Marvel enthusiasts. From the subtle nods to Thanos and Lady Death to the array of movie posters adorning Billy’s room—each detail contributes to a rich tapestry of storytelling that honors the source material. I found myself pausing the episodes just to catch every little reference, feeling like a detective uncovering hidden clues in the Marvel universe.

As we wrap up this captivating saga, questions linger about the future of Agatha All Along. Will there be a season 2?
