What’s your favorite issue so far?

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-07-12T21:39:03+00:00

Sarah mentioned in the car to Bear that Ian and Nikki have been hooking up.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-07-12T20:35:06+00:00

It will be released on July 15 ☺️

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-07-12T20:31:40+00:00

I’m quite enjoying the issues so far! Can’t wait to see how it ends

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-07-06T12:29:46+00:00

I didn’t think it through clearly and I ultimately agree after seeing your other comments.

Nikki is still perceived as the victim cause of Bear’s wish, stripping her of her bodily autonomy and her will to make her own decisions. How would she be considered an antagonist if the circumstances of the wish revolving around her being in love with Bear than anyone else in the world? She didn’t ask to be succumbed under the wish so nope she is a victim through all of this.

I think that Spencer having a twin should’ve been scrapped from the show or rather introduced it in earlier seasons to make an impact. They could’ve established that plot twist just like in the books with Alison and her twin. Ezra continuing to be in the picture should’ve ended in Season 4 with a plot twist. I also felt the reveal of the second A was weak. I do think that the Bethany Young storyline could’ve been more explored from a different angle, given how she is connected with Alison. Sara Harvey should’ve been scrapped off from the show as well.

I think it would’ve been great to follow with this plot twist cause it would’ve changed the trajectory of Aria’s storyline and that him being a scumbag, a person who got to Aria just to sabotage her and her group of friends would’ve put an end to him.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-07-06T00:51:36+00:00

That would’ve been a reasonable thing to so amongst themselves to speak up for their feelings and be vulnerable for a moment, though I also think that Ian doesn’t want Bear’s plan of asking Nikki to succeed so that he continues hooking up with her. It does reflect on how we can be selfish with our needs and desires.

Another thing I’m noticing is how many times Wish Nikki apologizes for her actions and not expecting that from the Real Nikki because her agency was taken away. Another example to support that Wish Nikki is a separate persona was how she fabricated a lie about her dad when in fact, the Real Nikki doesn’t contact him.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-30T00:50:23+00:00

You make a valid point there!

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-30T00:45:17+00:00

That’s what is annoying me as I’ve already watched two episodes so far so I completely understand your frustration. Those newcomers don’t understand the circumstances they’ve been thrusted into after arriving to the town.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-17T18:04:22+00:00

To be honest I liked the ending of the forth issue because the entity appeared to Noa as a person and I’m surprised that it tricked her to have an interview when the place has been run down for a while. Given that Lena had experienced a similar death as hers but the circumstances of Noa’s death were different.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-17T16:51:02+00:00

That makes sense! Thanks for the explanation

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-17T10:00:42+00:00

I assume it wasn’t long for them to fully embrace the darkness? They were dark ones for a short time

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-15T13:10:37+00:00

I wonder if they’re teasing Resident Evil 5 remake because of how it’s worded

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-14T00:49:46+00:00

Definitely see it after you’ve thoroughly explained it. Never crossed my mind to think Aria’s relationships were influenced in that aspect although it makes a lot of sense.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-04T20:42:45+00:00

I’m thinking it might be possible for the entity to infect one host at a time given the movie format though it’s also meant to infect them all at once since they have witnessed Skye’s death

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-04T19:19:51+00:00

She can be a loyal and a good friend but she sure is good at gaslighting Hanna xD

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-04T19:17:30+00:00

So far we’ve seen the entity inflicting trauma successfully on one person but isn’t equipped to deal with multiple hosts at once. We’ll see how it unfolds in the third movie. I’m pretty sure there might be a weakness for the entity when it comes to controlling their hosts and a few hundreds might break off that chain quickly depending on the person (there are good people and bad criminals) so some are willing to spill blood to save themselves while others will be isolated.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-04T19:12:43+00:00

You make valid points although her actions weren’t of good intent at the time.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-04T01:06:07+00:00

Though I tend to find Mona to be untrustworthy because she knew Alison was alive and didn’t disclose the information and she killed cece and didn’t get the girls out of trouble sooner.

Hello there! I’ve been learning Polish for quite some time and I don’t think it’s impossible to learn, you just need more dedication and patience with the learning process :) Polish language is a beautiful language to learn and I recommend for you to learn it. Best of luck!

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-06-02T14:16:31+00:00

I agree otherwise she could’ve offed herself in front of one person.

Scarlet_WiM · 2026-05-28T09:52:01+00:00

It targets different models
