I never understood how Matt figured out Will's secret.
>>153325780
>>153325799And that's it for today. I'll tie up the end of the arc in the next thread.
>>153325786Cedric attacked both of them, he saved her, and after that she told him.
How come Kadma didn't mentor the guardians?
>>153322824>You can dance?love Irma, she has no filter whatsoever
>>153322900Everyone goes on and on about Susan, but Mrs. Hale too is top tier.
>>153323187I'm appreciating these new Hay Lin hairstyles.
>>153322732>2005If the characters aged in real time. If Irma and the rest of the witch girls were 13 to 14 in 2005 they'd be be about 34 now. Feel old?
>>153322916Are we sure this comic was intended for a female audience?
>>153323297Only Irma's hairstyle remains unchanged.
>>153325836Next thread when?
>>153327297Not sure. Could be soon, could be longer.
>>153323506Why do superpowers have to be such a cock block?
>>153323708>>153323720>betrays loyal mookClassic bad move, Phobos.
How would you guys rank the respective guardians parents?
>>153323960Oracle knows Jedi mindtricks...
>>153324119>>153324128>>153324163200 IQ play here, I give props where they're due.
>>153324301Oh shit it was Cedric! 300 IQ play (even though he will fuck up soon). Mook revenge! Mook revenge!
>>153324961>slut coded CornyRed flag! This possible future cannot be real.
>>153325318Bitten off more than he can chew. >>153325436It's over.
>>153325674Pfft, lol loser.
>>153325836Thanks a lot, OP.
>>153325547Pretty obviously the same artist.
>>153325659>>153325674I know it's a recurring topic, more than worn out, one might say, but do you think Phobo's final fate would have been different with the original authors (Barbucci, Canepa and Gnone)?
>>153330803Very hard to tell considering Phobos isn't even mentioned in the issues Gnone actually worked on at all. The seal of Phobos and the first mentions of him is in issue 3, and we know that by that time control over the series was already no longer in the hands of the original main trio.
>>153330803I think he would have either met his end for good or end up as his worst nightmare, utterly trapped and powerless forever.
>>153323488Dude you literally just got in, at least wait a few hours before you sperg out.
>>153331298I think it reminded him of his time in the tower as a prisoner.
>>153323624Didn't they say that his powers will be incomplete if he leaves early? huh?
I suspect the holiday special is a scanlation.Very odd font in the speech bubbles.
>>153331357The fasting is seemingly more of a tradition - he's not supposed to leave, and he's not supposed to use his powers. It is a purification thing.>>153331413It is a scanlation.
>>153325674Falling through Eternity?Don't people need to eat in Kandrakar?Couple of days, at most.
>>153331513It's a slow form of suicide. He'd painfully die of thirst before dying of hunger.
>>153325699Yeah know what? I call bullshit. After being so utterly incompetent for so long and ignoring a trillion warning signs, there's no way that just kneeling and going "I'm sorry" is gonna cut it.
>>153329278Also, Irma wasn't thick.
>>153331666If I ever do a rewrite, I make Nerissa have actually grievances and fair criticism about them?>>153330803Do we know how the authors feel about the direction of the series?
>>153322704>I can't find anyone credited for the cover.It's just me, but I notice that the girls in front have a different artistic style... I'd even say that are from previous magazine covers and just edited in a single one.
>>153322709like this artist, very cartoony and expressive
I want to devastate [redacted]'s womb.
>>153322709>Anna Merli>>153333895Merli was the artist that drew Barbara Canepa's END ELizabeth, 2012, depicting an Elyon-like character as a kind of death bringer or intermediary
>>153334334
>>153322690Hay Lin is cute. CUTE!
>>153334334>>153334346maybe some people will dislike how separate their eyes are but i think it looks cool.
>>153322738so w.i.t.c.h is confirmed to be in 2005?
Thanks OP, doing god's work>>153324945idk guys, long haired Will is sort of cursed>>153326761My logic is that if a medium features a lot of outfit and hairstyle changes (fashion shit) then it's intended for female audiences>>153326425>>153329087I think Cornelia's mom is rather bland one of the blandest for sure. For a mom ranking I'd goWill's mom > Taranee's mom > Irma's mom > Cornelia's mom = Hay Lin's mom>>153332445>Do we know how the authors feel about the direction of the series?I think they wanted it to end in 12 issues. So Phobos would probably just have been gone for good some way. I know one of them feel like current W.I.T.C.H (at the time) was a loop (seasons change but the girls don't grow up) and that it doesn't really gel with what he wanted to tell in a story as it negates a lot of what he thought would be interesting with growing up and going through the changes of puberty in your life.
>>153334523>Irma's momYou mean adoptive mom, right? Also, what's the chances that one of them is lurking right now?
>>153334634step-mom yes
>>153323146Phobos looks like a stoner here
>>153334399>how separate their eyesOh yeah, I never noticed. Maybe a Disney influence? Hay Lin also has widely separated eyes.picrel a quick look at Merli's other works, she illustrated les filles au chocolat (literally girls of chocolat, but translated to the English Sweeties): kinda similar style, but less interesting.
>>153335054
>>153335061
>>153334334>Merli was the artist that drew Barbara Canepa's END ELizabeth, 2012Close:>In this case, both drawing and color are by Barbara Canepa (me) and Anna Merli, absolutely blended...Both of them drew.
>>153329278Irma and Cornelia getting along is another big tip-off
>>153324961In this adult futureTaranee > Cornelia > Hay Lin > Irma > Will>Taranee looks like she puts on a cute nerd front, but you know she'd do OnlyFans on the side>Cornelia is very slut-brat coded>Hay Lin looks cute, but still bratty. Perfect sub>Irma just comes off as a bit of a bitch>Will looks like a bore here
>>153335911yeahh
