This episode had me thinking of everyone whose tried to destroy the archives before now (or just wanted to burn texts in general)
[ID: Art of a hand (presumably Jon’s) holding the lit Web-decorated lighter as several other hands reach up for it. Jon’s hand is brown-skinned and has burn scars on the palm and circular scars all around the skin. One hand reaching up is pale-skinned and wearing a sweater (presumably Martin), pale-skinned and old and wrinkled with brown painted nails (presumably Gertrude), light-skinned and tattooed with eyes at the knuckles and painted with black nail polish (presumably Gerry’s), light-skinned and dripping with melting wax (presumably Jude’s), pale-skinned and covered with scars and long, clawlike nails (presumably Daisy’s), made of movable ball-joints (presumably Nikola’s), and decorated with a black lightning pattern (presumably Mike Crew’s). The only light in the painting shines from the lighter.]
[ID: a digital drawing based on episode 195 of The Magnus Archives. The drawing shows a white web against a turquoise background, with Jon standing in front of it, his hands, arms and neck tied into the web. Jon has brown skin, several scars, short brown hair, a scruff beard, half open square glasses, a green sweater vest over a white button up with the top buttons undone, and an undone black necktie. He is visible from the waist up. His arms are held up by the web and he’s looking down with a defeated expression. Above his head is an alternate version of “A Guest For Mr. Spider”, with pages ripped out and strewn across the drawing. The drawings on the book pages are simple and done in mostly green lines. The left page of the book shows a small door with some stains on the wall, door, and floor. The right page shows a bulbous spider with a top hat and one leg raised, again with stains on the wall and floor. The other pages are as follows:
Top left: a silhouetted figure holding a book and wearing a cap, Jon’s childhood bully, walking up short stairs towards a door that a huge, upright spider is coming out of. In the corner of the page is the text: “Who is it?” Top right: a smiling but shaking Martin - a fat man with freckles, round glasses, short wavy hair, and a diamond patterned sweater over a button up - under the text: “It’s Mister Horse”. Jane Prentiss standing on a worm covered floor with her dark hair hanging in front of her face, with webs in the top left and bottom right corners of the page. A partially visible page reading: “It’s Mrs Fruit”. Mid left: a page just reading: “Knock knock”. A tape with a speech bubble reading: “I open the door”. Mid center: (not a page) an open steel zippo lighter with a web design. A page reading: “Mr. Spider doesn’t like it”. Lower left: Annabelle Cane, a woman with short curly hair, leading Martin away by the hand while Martin looks back over his shoulder. Lower right: Elias Bouchard - a man with short hair and two stylized eye earrings on chains, wearing a suit and holding a pipe in both hands - under the text: “It’s Mister Blue Bottle”. And a page reading: “It is polite to knock”. Underneath this the drawing fades to black. Drawn/written on it with pale green lines is a tape with the tape lint partially pulled out and the text: “Mr. Spider wants more”. /ED]
[ID: A Star Wars comic. Han jolts in surprise when he finds Luke and Leia standing in front of him with irate expressions. Both are significantly shorter than him. Leia says, hands on her hips, “And where are you going?” Luke asks, “Leaving, again??” They both start to angrily lecture him, their words overlapping and filling the background. Han looks down at them with annoyance and a raised eyebrow. Then, he picks up an angry Leia and moves her to the side of the corridor. She angrily exclaims “Ah!” as Luke looks on with surprise. Then Luke shouts, “Hey-” as Han does the same to him. Han then strides down the corridor with balled fists through the space between the twins. Luke and Leia stare silently for a second, then angrily shout, “Han!” End ID]
