Vision Quest
West Coast Avengers issues 42-50
Published in 1989
Written and drawn by John Byrne
It’s battles, betrayals and the bizarre as only Byrne could bring you! Watch as one of comicdom’s most recognizable talents remakes the West Coast Avengers, starting with the capture and dismantling of the Vision! As secrets about the synthezoid come to light, the Whackos are determined to get their teammate back, safe and sound -but what happens when the Vision they recover isn’ the Vision they remember? And most importantly, how will this shocking change affect the Vision and the Scarlet Witch’ marriage…and family?
Who is the all-white Vision? In an incredible arc by writer and artist John Byrne, Vision, the manmade mold of Ultron, Wonder Man, or (maybe) the original Human Torch, is kidnapped, disassembled, and reprogrammed. This unwitting makeover came at the hands of an organization called Vigilance, a watch agency that aimed to restore world order by wiping the slate clean. The red and green synthezoid that we knew and loved was forever changed in “Vision Quest,” running through WEST COAST AVEGERS (1985) #42-45. Although, the ramifications of the “White Vision’s” transformation played out in the comics for well over a year, and was considered the first unraveling in his marriage to Scarlet Witch. This storyline also precipitated the shocking reveal behind the true nature of Vision’s children with Wanda Maximoff.
