Agatha All Along Just Teased a Deep-Cut Marvel Character

As a longtime Marvel enthusiast and someone who has followed the intricate web of characters since the early days, I am beyond thrilled about the arrival of Agatha All Along. The series is not only deepening the mystical lore of the MCU but also subtly hinting at the introduction of lesser-known characters like Nicholas Scratch.


Hey there fellow gaming enthusiasts! As a Marvel fanatic, I can’t contain my excitement about the enchanting expansion of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) with the debut of “Agatha All Along” on Disney+. This spin-off from “WandaVision” delves deep into the mystical lore surrounding Agatha Harkness, introducing captivating concepts like the Witches’ Road to the franchise. The series premiere, now streaming on Disney+, also seems to be hinting at a specific Marvel character joining the action, someone who shares a significant history with Agatha. Proceed with caution, as this discussion might spoil “Agatha All Along” for you!

In the twinkling of an eye towards the end of episode 1 of Agatha All Along, the series subtly hinted at the arrival of a lesser-known Marvel character, Nicholas Scratch. As I was snooping around Agatha’s house in Westview, a trophy adorned with Nicholas Scratch’s name caught my eye on what seemed to be a kid’s room shelf. Now it’s up to us dedicated Marvel fans to speculate about how this might fit into Agatha’s story within the MCU.

Who Is Nicholas Scratch?

In case you didn’t know, Nicholas Scratch is the moniker of Agatha Harkness’ son in Marvel Comics. Later on, he becomes somewhat of an adversary to her, as she departs from the hidden New Salem community and he assumes leadership over it instead.

In the show “Agatha All Along” and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the trophy alone serves as a significant clue suggesting that Scratch exists. However, a larger narrative within the series appears to further support this idea of Scratch’s presence.

In the opening episodes, it’s hinted that Agatha is under threat from a formidable party who intend to eliminate her. However, specific details about this group remain unclear for the viewers until the end of Episode 2, where it seems as though the Salem Seven are making their way towards Westview with the intention of confronting or capturing Agatha.

Essentially, you’re asking how does that relate to Scratch? In the comics, he instigates conflict between the residents of New Salem and Agatha following her departure from the community. A coven of witches from New Salem then abduct Agatha and bring her back to their secret town for trial.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), it seems they might be linking Agatha’s tale with another storyline. It’s possible that Nicholas is spearheading the pursuit of Agatha, aiming to apprehend her. This desire among witches to see Agatha punished could potentially offer an explanation for the origin of their enmity towards her.

Well, given that we’re discussing the Marvel Cinematic Universe here, it could simply be that Nicholas Scratch’s name on a trophy is just an amusing Easter egg for attentive viewers. However, we’ll discover the truth in about eight weeks, won’t we?
