Not operational....maybe the materials are important?
perhaps a reflection of something or redirecting a beam of light?
Is it broken? My daughter's phone has a smashed glass but it still works.
After shorting out and then being caught in a fuel-air explosion (at the epicentre no less), I doubt that it's operational. Even if it were, it could not operate close to Widdershins.
And it comes full circle.
Ooooh, so she's going to the future at some point maybe?
Maybe the fact that it played a key role in the defeat of gluttony?
Leaving aside for a minute what exactly Harry is going to need a broken phone for, how does Alexa know about it?
Well Harry's done some fairly flashy stunts before like saving the princess.
Aye, but they wouldn't exactly write in the newspapers or penny dreadfuls or whatever "Harry did such-and-such using a broken smartphone" because they didn't know what smartphones were.
OTOH, if Harry is Alexa's great ... great-grandmother or aunt (as has been suggested), family history may be guiding her.
If Alexa was related to Harry, then she probably would have recognized her last name. The way she acted, "Barber" had no real significance to her outside of the fact that Gluttony called Nora that. It wasn't until she put "Harriet" and "Barber" together that she got excited.
Actually, speaking from the future, as it were, it seems as if Alexa is descended from another branch of the Barber family.
I haven't got the faintest idea. We'll just have to keep reading the comic, sorry graphic narrative, until we find out.
Family history?
You need a better way of pecking through your archives for one specific page.
That would be nice, yeah, but short of spending time (that I don't really have right now) transcribing the pages, I'm not sure how..
Let us readers do it!

Now that's a thought! The site has a transcript feature baked in, but I've stopped using it since it just gets clogged up with spam extremely quickly. That may be a good solution!
Is this going to end up like the alternate ending to Army of Darkness where King finds herself in a post-apocalyptic London? YES! POSSIBLE SPIN OFF!
I BAKED TOO LONG!!!!
An offering to Envy? Something no one ever has at that time.
ooooo, I like that idea.
Sorry I still can't get over how cool her black rabbit of Inle tattoo is
I don't recall a phone in the earlier stories, so perhaps a hint toward the next adventure?
Oh Alexa, if history were that fragile, wizards would have accidentally shattered it into a zillion pieces by now :)
Ooh! Timey-Whimey!!!
Hasn't Ms King just left Mrs Fenton alone with the butler? Just hope he hasn't woken up in a bad mode.
Do we ever see what characters are thinking in Widdershins? I can't recall.
I avoid it if I can.
I prefer it that way. I remember the Marvel style used to be that they'd show you what the main character was thinking, but not the others. Don't know if they still do it that way.
If possible, I like to put things across in actions and expressions. I don't recall using thought bubbles in this comic, though since there's over 300 pages now, I may be forgetting one!
Technically you used a set of incredibly awesome visual thought bubbles when Harry ruminated on leaving Sid locked in the wardrobe, but that's all I can recall from spending the weekend in front of the fire power reading the archives. Hey, who has two (or more) thumbs and is now a huge fan of Widdershins?
Chapter 3, page 10 - Sid planning "Hello Harry",

I do want to see Nora again.
"...The screen is broken, but don't worry, it's still got about a hundred years of AppleCare left."
Wait. What's her mother's maiden name?
Not Barber. {Which is not to say that i know what it IS - but, speaking from the future, i know what it can't be.)
Look at their eyes! Nora's left eye and Alexa's right eye are doing the same thing!
The time loop has now been stabilized. Please exit the Pocket Dimension.
... stable time loop, yay!
Later, Doctor Who appears to make a joke.
BECAUSE THIS IS A BRITISH WEB COMIC
BYE NORA I MISS YOU ALREADY <3
