As the Green Lantern once observed...
...everything is relative.
I was expecting Thea, but then that's probably what those smaller ones are fleeing from, since she's been going around draining and absorbing anchors.
The blue critter in panel 3 looks like it could be a relative of the stress-lizard at Voss's brewery back in Green-Eyed Monster.
Hmm. Not a twin, but maybe a sibling or a cousin? Definitely seems to be related, though.
Fascinating. The malforms are coming out of the Anchor without breaking the glass dome. Implies they are coming from an extra dimensional space, rather than physically emerging from the shaft.
There is not a big cave full of spirits at the bottom of the hole 😔
How are Nyree and Ben so chill about everyone being able to see the buggerups? Did they know this was going to happen????
Also, love Wolfe instantly making friends with one of them, even though he's still freaked out! And generally appreciation for the buggerups! They're so adorable and weird :)
Assuming you mean Nyree and Mal, my guess is that it's because they're witches and used to odd things happening.
yeah, Nyree and Mal, oops! And that's fair. Weird is relative.
I wondered what Nyree meant by light treason on this page: https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/october-13th-2023
Well, she sees (or, in part, smells) that Mal is under duress to act all high-browed and presentable, which is very much running against both their usual demeanor. I always assumed that she was alluding to "let's get back to normal ASAP, however we can afford to have your guard dogs scream bloody murder about it" ...
But . . . we're not supposed to be able to see them!
This is most likely a bad thing, perhaps a very bad thing, no?
oh that smug Mal is so, SO great XD
The pointy light purple one looks like a Zelda boss: https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Helmasaur_King
Mal's come a long way ^^ Look how comfortable in his skin he is <3
I wonder if there's some fun novelty to this for him. In the past, he'd be suffering as the one being badgered by the chaos, expected to clean it up and have to worry about being blamed for the mess in the first place.
(Okay, both those things might still happen in a bit, but he seems like he'll easily handle it now, compared to at the start.)
Edit: Also: Ben! Now's your chance to one-up you-know-whos! A field you have plenty of experience with(even seeing them!) and which I somehow doubt they're perfectly equipped to handle. Even if they (aggravatingly) are, you are well equipped to contribute!
