Eh, all close friendships are at least a little gay.
Now if she starts fantasizing about making out with Sandra/Zandra...
Well, I guess we'll see if what happens on Joe's DeviantArt page stays on Joe's DeviantArt page...
Or if his "DeviantArt" page becomes a little more...literal. *bah dun tch!*
I'm just going ahead and say this is confirmation. If this was just laying it on thick, we'd be buried in thirty mile thick molasses.
Confirmation? But you can't see a nipple ring anywhere! He's just teasing us.
Also cue image of Crystal reaching up into the clouds to touch Zandra's finger.
If you don't mind me asking here, why did Zandra suddenly revert to demonhood at the end of the Outlands arc?
P.S. This is without a doubt the greatest webcomic I have ever seen.
Thought she did that earlier than the end while talking to "Alice"...sorry for the vaguaries, but something about embracing her true complete self?

"Alice". "Mabel". Her.
No harm in the vaguaries my friend, but why did embracing the human side of soul make her look less human?
I believe Personally it was because she accepted her true self..No Labels no Lies . She was actually MORE human acting like What she thought as a Human a Demon was supposed to be from a Human Perspective. " That what she Thought she as a HUMAN what demons are.. Instead of just being her.. From a magic Prospective Demons Are Do as I WILL! And Sandra was more as a Human Do as I seen Movies say I act LIKE! So she did not Embrace humanity she threw it away.. And stopped acting Like a Demon but instead Zandra and was so renamed.. (yep not a accident but the higher Powers Giving her a Name Earned.)
Simpler way to look at it is she acted like a monster in a world of creatures that feared and driven of by humans.. so to such creatures what do you think a Embodiment of evil would look like? She gave up being a semi Embodiment of evil and started acting like a normal and changed to that world's version of Normal i.e. a demon.. Not a Evil Human...
I would have thought that Zandras new 'True name' would have taken a lot longer to find out by 'norms' in origin earth. Usually that sort of thing is protected JUST for the reason that it give others power over you in the magic realms.
Yeah, I think I'll keep it a bit mysterious for now, if you don't mind. I love to encourage speculation.
Typical Crystal, still (wanting to) seeing Zandra's humanity even though it's long, long gone.
I'm still of the opinion that Zandra left the Subfusc with the ability to temporary look like her human self -- like, if she actually wanted to, and wasn't in a situation where it would have led the vampires to revolt even sooner. She had found her center, and her balance, which means more control over herself, and a large number of mythical beings seem able to change their appearances temporarily, so why not also demons that just barely play by the rules?
This one is a bit more mixed though. She has the wings and talons but a human face. Could actually be symbolizing how her appearance has changed but she's still Sandra to Crystal.
Man, Sandra looks OLD.
Like, really, really old.
Grandma old.
Do...do her wrinkles actually have smaller wrinkles?
Sandra doesn't actually look old, she looks mature. Which lends to her heavily contrasting with Crystal because Crystal actually has a far rounder, almost child like face. Sandra is all strong angles.
Also having her world constantly turned upside down and back again gives you the right to look 'tired' :D
Love it. Love everyone's interpretation.
Crystal and Sandra have always been so close, and Sandra has always been so strong, a rock or foundation for Crystal - but Crystal has always been the positive, white hat, force for good - like the angel on your shoulder for Sandra.
Blaerg. I don't know. Me no talk good, but me like comic!! Want more.
Side Note could this mean Zandra a Forbidden fruit to Crystal? If so is it a Gay Reference or a demonic one? Does Crystal Envy Sandra's/Zandra's Freedom? Her demonic form? And what Irony that Zandra has no Freedom at all.
possibly. But I think it's more likely that Crystal is having a realization that she still wants Sandra in her life, even if she's going by Zandra now, and even if she may have sent a bunch of vampires to attack her a few hours previously -- since there's no way Crystal would know that was a frame-job.
You are really killing it with the art here Joe, its fantastic. From this and the time Zandra was in Lord Incubus's window it looks like both Zandra and Crystal have romantic feelings for each other even if only on a subconscious level, though it could be more. It will be interesting to see if they explore these feelings more openly now that they've both been made to confront them via magical intervention. What will it mean for Crystal's relationship with Wally if they do? Would they consider polyamory? Only time will tell. One thing for sure is that romance is complicated in the world of Zebra Girl.
I don't ship media. I don't care if this is a "Crystal is in love with Z/Sandra" or whatever else. This, to me, looks like Crystal reaching out to the innocence buried deep in Z/Sandra, and finding it. Beautiful art, Joe. Thanks for sharing it, as always!
Quit using your sister as a magical focus, Jack. It's rude.
Focus, Crystal. You're supposed to be crawling through the ghoul tube, not dreaming about zebra fruit.
