a lot of people hate the hazel mist magic stuff and I won't deny that it was developed and implemented very weirdly but I actually really appreciate that it's partially connected to marie levesque who mind you summoned the lord of death/riches through her own powers. he didn't just meet her on the street and fall in love like other mortals parents she summoned a big three god to come directly to her (and then he fell for her afterwards). thusly it wasn't some late game add-on it was established very early in hoo that marie already had mystical powers of some kind based on new orleans gris-gris traditions and exploring that for hazel is pretty cool actually and makes sense! 👍

(also something something about frazel parallels where they both have special gifts that stem from their chinese/african heritage and not their godly fathers 😌)

for me the thing about it that sucks isn't that it's inherently bad or op as a lot of people seem to think (look me in the eyes and tell me that hazel is written on the page as more op than the likes of percy. rick limits her powers so much still even tho imo big three kids have a right to be op) it's that hazel's magic appears primarily tied to hecate and greek/roman mist magic instead of louisiana-haitian vodou influences (haitian vodou/louisiana voodoo are actual religions that have some key distinctions from each other, I'm just saying that rick could have drawn from either/both of them more when establishing hazel's powers). hecate mentioned marie explicitly when explaining why hazel has potential with magic but it's still pretty much all about nebulous greek/roman magic instead of new orleans-specific magic. let hazel levesque practice voodoo and cast hexes and work with spirits she deserves it (she is already a daughter of pluto so the connection to spirits should be there!!!)

So, uh.... anyone gonna talk about the fact that the tree of knowledge is A) the only tree in the garden of Eden depicted as being red (which is associated with evil in this intro story) and B) the only tree with very visible ROOTS?!?

Like, the roots of all evil? Literally??

No? Just me? Ah well.

help 😭😭😭

I showed labyrinth (as in the movie from 1986) to my brother yesterday and now I’m cursed or something

so for twelve hours straight now, my head has been going like:

‘you remind me of the babe’

‘what babe?’

‘the babe with the power’

‘what power?’

‘the power of voodoo’

‘who do?’

‘you do!’

‘do what?’

‘remind me of the babe!’

*insert pic of David Bowie as Jareth the goblin king and those ridiculously tight pants, dancing with goblins*

‘DANCE MAGIC DANCE’

aaaaand repeat woooo

‘YOU REMIND ME OF THE BABE‘

*gay clap*

‘WHAT BABE?’

*gay clap 2.0*

‘THE BABE WITH THE POWER’

etc.

I need sleep. And therapy.

Long live the goblin king.

Legion of Super-Heroes member, Tyroc (name later retconned as Troy Stewart)

(I came SO close to adding Cyborg's OG robo-stripper suit, but even if I had left out that extra Tyroc pic to make room for Victor Stone, he actually debuted in the 80s, not the 70s. 🫤

Anyway, enjoy! 😅)
