I was hung up on the idea that Wanda, Magneto and US Agent were all originally "bad guys" who later joined major superhero teams -- which is true but pretty general and not all that rare -- or that they all were part of teams that included the Scarlet Witch, which is a funny thing for Wanda to claim of herself. But that's why I've missed the cover theme games so much: they force you to try to look at these things from every angle you can think of. Man, I was on the wrong track entirely with #2.

While many folks have changed their superhero identities, these three all changed their secret identities (Wanda Frank to Wanda Maximoff, Johnny Walker to Jack Daniels and lots of changes for Magneto).
