![]() members wear yellow uniforms, but in Iron Man 3, they don't - another piece of evidence to back up the idea of the WandaVision beekeeper being an A.I.M. operatives and technicians sport uniforms and helmets that resemble beekeepers' gear, much like the anonymous man's uniform as seen at the end of WandaVision's second episode. Now, while leaders of the organization dress in business attire, other A.I.M. In May 2019, Marvel boss Kevin Feige teased that the MCU would bring the "real Mandarin" into the mix in the future, and we all know how much Marvel loves to link together all its properties through subtle details, so perhaps there's some sort of connection here. In the comics, he's the founder of the organization, but in the MCU, Iron Man 3 establishes that Aldrich Killian - aka the Mandarin - created A.I.M. are Yelena Belova and Taskmaster, two characters who will appear in the upcoming Black Widow solo movie. Of course, Baron von Strucker was a part of A.I.M. A.I.M., which first showed up in 1966's Strange Tales #146, was an off-shoot of HYDRA, and its leaders include the android Super-Adaptoid, Bruce Banner's former flame (in the comics) Monica Rappaccini, and M.O.D.O.K., who is set to appear in his own series on Hulu. ![]() Might they somehow be behind this weird world? Did HYDRA "make time" for Wanda and Vision, and this commercial is being used to signify the outside reality seeping into the possibly fabricated one? It's definitely something worth chewing on.Īnother potential - and probably more plausible - explanation for the appearance of the mysterious beekeeper in WandaVision is that he's somehow related to A.I.M., the criminal organization also known as Advanced Idea Mechanics. ![]() Short of a legitimate von Strucker return, members of HYDRA could in some way factor into WandaVision. There's a very real possibility that future episodes of WandaVision might see von Strucker appear, "making time" to visit Wanda in her uncertain reality for some evil reason. After all, Vision's supposed to be dead, too. One would assume that von Strucker's death in the 2015 movie rules out a return in WandaVision. But, as we know by now, the series isn't abiding by the details of the current MCU timeline. It's also important to note that in the commercial, we hear the Strücker Watches tagline: "Strücker - He'll make time for you." Von Strucker died in Avengers: Age of Ultron, after Ultron murdered him and wrote a message to the Avengers using von Strucker's own blood. What they find is a person, wearing a beekeeper suit with plenty of the flying insects buzzing around him, crawling out of a manhole. The man's identity remains unknown, but that same S.W.O.R.D.-looking logo is adorned on the back of his outfit, implying his connection to the group. ![]() They're alerted by a loud noise outside, prompting them investigate it in case there's some kind of danger. Despite her growing anxiety, the odd occurrences don't stop there.įollowing her and Vision's successful magic act at the Westview talent show (even in the face of the android's gummed-up circuitry), the two go home, but there's no time for celebration. During Wanda's meeting with the neighborhood organizer Dottie (Emma Caulfield), a nearby radio begins to speak directly to her - asking, "Wanda? Who's doing this to you, Wanda?" before exploding. That moment passes, and she doesn't think much of the toy helicopter again, but things get stranger from here. Early on in the episode, Wanda takes notice of something sitting in her front-yard bushes: a small toy helicopter with a mysterious sword emblem on its side - which seems like a clear reference to a S.H.I.E.L.D.-like organization in the comics called S.W.O.R.D., but more on that in a moment.
