  • PAGE 93 Panel 1: Wide panel. Under the blanket fort shadow, sitting on the floor in front of the green couch, Vanita and King sit side-by-side. Their dinner plates sit on the couch cushion by their heads, with leftover chicken bones and forks. King, looking thoughtful, recollects as they say, "I recall a drawing on the floor. A seven-pointed star...and seven black candles. One at each point of the star." Panel 2: Wide panel, close up on King looking puzzled. "I don't recall the exact incantation," they say. "...But I remember it had been copied from another book..." Panel 3: Vanita asks, "Do you remember the book?" King raises a finger, face lighting up with recognition. "Not exactly," they say. "I think it was something-or other Incantorum. But I remember the author!"

Next to her is a brown-skinned young man with short locks, wearing tan cargo shorts and a white tank, holding a crochet project made of purple yarn. This is her brother, Jared.

"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...."
