#Witchtober Day 2 - Melt
Lizzy can be a bit of a melt at times, and she doesn't help matters by not listening to the people that try to help her!

#Witchtober2026

A five Panel comic

1: Two witches are at a desk making Potions. The one on the left (Lizzy, sporting a redesign since the last time we saw her) looks on in annoyance as the witch on the right (Cynthia) holds up a test tube full of liquid and says "And that is how you make the potion of eternal youth!"

2: Lizzy carelessly mixes the liquids together. She says "Yeah, nah. I've got my own way of doing it!"

3. Lizzy drinks the liquid, whilst Cynthia looks on in cautious disbelief.

4. Closeup of Lizzy's face, the after effects of drinking the potion clearly taking place.

5. Lizzy starts to melt. "AAAARRRRGGGGHHH!" She screams. Cynthia looks unsympathetic and says "You absolute melt."

It's #Witchtober time once again, and like last time, I'll be using the prompt list from @willowandroxas.bsky.social. Day 1 is "claw". Penny has tried to turn her arch nemesis into Santa Claus to make him less threatening but, ironically for a witch, she's not great at spelling!

#witchtober2026

Penny is running away from a doorway. A witch hunter, Niall O' Neill, is kicking a door open as he chases penny. The door has a hole in the shape of Penny's silhouette, implying that she ran through the door without opening it first. Further implying this are the splinters of wood on the floor and in Penny's hair and hat, as well as her dress being slightly torn. She writes in a notepad as she says "Note to self: never try to turn your enemy into Santa Claus!"

This started as a sketch but I liked how it looked and so I decided to make it a full piece

I should have a new video out tomorrow! All I can say is that it involves bootleg toys. Possibly a new low for the channel- in fact you could say the channel has gone southward...
