12. Doctor Manhattan

This was one of the easiest picks to make. Doctor Manhattan put a whoopin’ on all of DC Comics’ greatest heroes while they fought in outer space (read Doomsday Clock for that story). The part that shocked most people was what he did to people who wield magic. He found the “science” in their abilities and made them obsolete.

The Scarlet Witch is powerful, but she’s not on the level of Doctor Manhattan. There isn’t a comic book character that is. Wanda would use her powers and may even take him out. However, he’ll reappear, figure out Wanda’s powers, and then she’ll lose the fight.

11. All Father Thor

Thor is looked at as the greatest god of all time. During Thor: God of Thunder: Godbomb, he saved all of the gods throughout time. This solidified his standing as the premier deity of all time. He did so by beating one of the most atrocious beings in all of Marvel Comics, Gorr the God Butcher.

By all rights, Thor shouldn’t be able to beat the Scarlet Witch. The thing with Thor is he always finds a way to win. He defeated Gorr and stopped a bomb from murdering all the gods. Years later he killed Galactus. Both feats are something to take into consideration when this fight starts. On top of that, Thor now has the power of the All-Father. That may be too much for even Wanda to handle. And we haven’t even discussed Mjolnir, Thor’s lightning, or his powers over Earth and his newly acquired access to the Phoenix Force.
