Agatha All Along Episode 5 has reignited fan interest in Tommy Maximoff, Billy’s twin brother, following the reveal of Billy’s identity as Wiccan. Tommy, known for his super-speed abilities, has a rich comic book history and deep ties to Wanda Maximoff’s storyline, sparking speculation about his fate in the MCU. His possible return could further expand the multiverse and explore new aspects of the Maximoff family.
Here’s a look at Tommy Maximoff’s current status in the MCU and how he could play a role in future Marvel storylines.
Is Billy’s brother Tommy Maximoff dead or alive in the MCU?
Wanda Maximoff erased Tommy Maximoff, like his brother Billy, from existence when she ended the Hex in WandaVision.
This action seemingly marked the end of both children within the primary MCU reality, Earth-616. However, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness revealed that versions of Billy and Tommy exist in other universes, suggesting that Tommy might not be gone forever. This raises the possibility that Tommy remains alive in other realities, even if his fate on Earth-616 remains unclear.
In the comics, Tommy Maximoff, also known as Speed, undergoes a reincarnation similar to his brother Billy. This storyline offers a potential blueprint for the MCU, suggesting that Tommy could reappear in future narratives. He may return as a reincarnated character or a variant from another universe. The multiverse provides various avenues for characters to come back, and with Billy’s recent confirmation, the MCU might soon address Tommy’s fate.
Will Tommy Maximoff appear in Agatha All Along?
As of Episode 5 of Agatha All Along, Tommy Maximoff has not yet appeared. There has been no direct confirmation of his role in the series.
The focus has primarily been on Billy Maximoff, revealed to be the Teen. However, Tommy’s absence raises interesting possibilities for future MCU projects, particularly since Billy and Tommy are often closely linked in both the comics and the MCU.
There have been rumors and leaks suggesting Tommy’s potential involvement in VisionQuest, another upcoming MCU project. Given the close bond between the twins and their importance to Wanda’s story, it seems plausible that Tommy could re-enter the MCU either through Agatha All Along or a related series.
His character, Speed, is important in the Young Avengers storyline in the comics. With the MCU steadily introducing other Young Avengers, it’s likely that Tommy will return to further that narrative.
