Who Is Vertigo in ‘Agatha All Along’? Meet Okwui Okpokwasili’s Mysterious Witch Character

Agatha All Along Episode 4, titled “If I Can’t Reach You / Let My Song Teach You,” dropped yesterday to mostly positive reactions. However, it left viewers with plenty of questions, sparking online discussions about what they actually witnessed in the episode.

One of the most intriguing elements was the introduction of a new character, Vertigo. In this article, we’ll explore who she is and what role she plays in the unfolding story of Agatha All Along.

Agatha All Along is steadily expanding its universe, recently introducing the Salem Seven, a group of powerful witches who currently have their sights set on Agatha Harkness. Rio Vidal appears to be aligned with them, though details about both the Salem Seven and Vertigo remain sparse in the series so far.

To help you prepare for what might be coming, we’re diving into the comics for some background on these characters.

In the comics, Vertigo is one of the most prominent and powerful members of the Salem Seven. She possesses the ability to induce intense vertigo in her targets and is a highly skilled magic user.

Vertigo was originally introduced as a member of the Salem Seven, a group founded by Nicholas Scratch—who also happens to be her father, making her Agatha Harkness’s granddaughter in the comic book lore.

Vertigo played a key role in overthrowing Agatha, though she was later killed in the comics. However, she was eventually revived, shifting from villainy to becoming a more “neutral” character.

That said, it’s unclear how Agatha All Along will adapt her story, especially since Nicholas Scratch is supposedly dead in the MCU. While we may see significant changes to her backstory, it’s likely the show will draw some inspiration from her comic book arc.

Given her importance in the comics, it’s likely that Vertigo will continue to play a role as the series progresses. Stay tuned for more about her character in upcoming episodes.
