    Kinda hard to read. The response in panel 3 seems unmotivated, and the witches switch sides, which is made worse by the fact they are largely identical except for hair.

      Yeah there was absolutely no reason for them to switch sides, really messes with readability. Could have easily flipped the image after drawing before the words were added.

      The author colored the text boxes, only thing more obvious would be a red circle and arrows…

        No it’s definitely bad, it’s like breaking the 180 rule in film

        And actually colouring the text boxes is not good either

        Lot of heart otherwise

          I can see why the cartoonist made the choice: To keep the flow of dialogue balloons going, but I agree it makes it confusing, and there are better ways to do it.

          They may have realized their mistake by the 4th panel, but at that point they were committed to the panel layout and didn’t want to rework the art or word balloons.

            Yeah, I’ve got a yellow filter on my phone to reduce migraines, and I didn’t notice the different color bubbles at all.

    I know this will sound dumb, but I love that this artists take something as common as this kind of typical green witches and draw comics around them. I mean, they don’t usually don’t have that much lore anywhere, they are practically there being bad and that’s it

    But imagine a witch that have a MAID (femboy still to confirm) ANTHROPOMORPHIC CAT? Who wouldn’t want to be witch?
