PAGE 103 Panel 1: Wide panel. Vanita, her back to the viewer, asks, "Like, my personal history, or...?" King, leaning back on the couch cushions, says to Vanita, "If you wish. I know what I fought for. What did the historians teach you about us?" Panel 2: Wide panel. Close up on Vanita - she's rolling her eyes. "Oh. THAT. Well, schools nowadays teach that Richard fought for law and order - and your side fought for chaos and anarchy." Panel 3: Wide, establishing panel. It's a flashback showing the aftermath of a battlefield. Bodies are cast in silhouette, as is the battered and torn flag. We do not see the logo. Vanita, from off-panel, says, "But I don't trust an institution that took 800 years to outlaw slavery... and only JUST outlawed reform schools 20 years ago."

Panel 4: King raises their fist to the crowd, who go wild. King (narration): But if one must choose whether a legend of a person could change the world – let it be a legend. Panel 5: Wide panel. King is now thicker with muscle, facing off against an armored man. Both carry greatswords, which King wields with one hand. Around them are sounds and bodies at war.

We only see Mister Wintergate’s hand and crooked smile as he leers over the viewer, shirtless. Panel 3: Present day. King clenches a fist. Panel 4: Very close up on King as they glare, recalling this memory. Panel 5: Vanita speaks up and draws King’s attention. Vanita asks, “Did ‘King’ as a name come after...Wintergate’s accident? Panel 6: We see King from behind their head, looking away. Part of the speech trails into the next panel. King says, “Yes. But it was a name I did not ask for. The voices of the desperate and downtrodden bestowed it upon me after they heard my story.” Panel 7: Flashback. King, younger, stands before an enormous crowd of people, all cheering with arms raised.

  • Panel 1: In this flashback panel, we see King cringing at their arm. The candle, part of the summoning circle, is still lit. King (present): “...I have hated this body ever since Wintergate forced me into it.” Panel 2: Present day. Vanita’s face softens as she looks at the Demon King. We cannot see his face. Panel 3: Flashback. We see Wintergate’s pale hand holding a book of magic open. On the pages are a picture of a demon and some text we cannot read. King (present): “When I had been reshaped, well...to cast the spell requires the name of the person you are transforming. And as soon as the deed is done - Panel 4: Zoom in on the text of the book from panel 3. We see a list of names, with one name turning into dust and flying away on the wind. King (present): “ - that original name is lost. Because the original is now gone.”

"Charlie and Clow also has some touching relationships and very satisfying and thoughtful plot twists that will keep you reading. As tends to be the case with the best paranormal comics of this type, the main draw is that it's all about the relationships-- relationships that aren't exactly steamy, they're more caring...."
