‘Agatha All Along’ released its final two episodes, and they were bittersweet, to say the least. We successfully predicted that Agatha would die at the end of the show, but she’s not really gone – compared to her coven members who were confirmed to be gone for good by the showrunner herself.
One coven member who also managed to survive the events of the Witches Road was Jennifer Kale. As was revealed in episode 8, Jennifer lost her magical powers beacuse Agatha bound her 100 years ago.
Jennifer faced Agatha after all this time and during the Green trial managed to unbound herself. Witches Road gave her what she was trying to find and Jennifer quickly vanished from the trial room, only to resurface in Westview later. It’s confirmed that Jennifer has her powers again, which means that if Wiccan’s (and Agatha’s) journey continues on the big screen we can likely expect Jennifer to return as well.
You’re likely aware that ‘Agatha All Along’ created some characters specifically for the show, but Jennifer is not one of them. In the comics, she is related to one of the most notable characters tied to supernatural and occult side of Marvel Comics – Ghost Rider.
In the comics, Jennifer Kale is related to two Ghost Riders. Both Johnny Blaze and Danny Ketch are her cousins via Noble Kale, one of the first Ghost Riders in history. Jennifer is quite powerful in her own right, this is why she was at one point a member of Midnight Sons, superhero team rumored to soon join the MCU.
Jennifer has appeared in different comic series where she often deals with demons, spirits, and other magical creatures, which is something we can expect from her MCU journey as well.
The show so far did not hint at the connection between Kale and Ghost Rider. One Ghost Rider technically did appear in ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ but he is not canonically related to Jennifer and we’re pretty certain he is not THE Ghost Rider that MCU will go forward with.
It’s interesting that Jennifer was also the one to name-drop Mephisto in episode 3, implying that she already has connections to that side of the MCU.
