WandaVision Adds Allan Heinberg And Jimmy Cheung To Creator Credits

Bleeding Cool has looked at the changing credits of WandaVision, and the thanks they gave to the comic creators that inspired the TV show on Disney+. It began with a list of names, then broke out the creators of Scarlet Witch and The Vision into their own tier, and added the creators of Monica Rambeau and Jimmy Woo. Even the creators of Agatha Harkness were there, as the same creators of Scarlet Witch.

But throughout WandaVision, there have been a number of prominent credits entirely missing. We mentioned the absence of Allan Heinberg and Jim Cheung before. But yesterday's episode fixed that. Okay, they misspelt Allan as Allen, but that's easily fixable.

Allan Heinberg and Jimmy Cheung,created the series Young Avengers, which saw the children take a new incarnation, a new Billy and Tommy, who become the superheroes Speedy and Wiccan. One with superspeed powers, the other with magical and telepathic powers. You know, just like in WandaVision.
