I dig Jenny's new look. Of course, I dug her old look too. |

Hi! Uh, is anyone home? This is Jenny Lang. We met a few years ago, at the living ship, in Germany? I got really witchy."

That frown in the last panel also perfectly captures Annie's existential despair at everyone else knowing what she's doing before she tells them.

And Tom keeps his ability to surprise.
Interesting parallel to Annie's ditching the excessive make-up.

Related: Since last page Antimony might be wondering how much sooner she could have learned what the Court was up to if she'd just asked Jack. Also: Killer vamp expression on Jenny in that same panel. |

With Tom, one must learn to expect the unexpected.
... even when it is expected.

Tom is so real for depicting the goth/emo to 50s fashion pipeline. It's a real consequence of going "I'm tired of wearing all black!" and it could happen to a goth near you.

Getting the distinct vibe that Jenny got herself all dolled up in her cutest outfit with the beach wave curls and everything solely because she'd be seeing a person she doesn't interact with often, and I once again question how Tom seems to know such deep details about the experience of being a young lady.

More like styled hair is an essential part of pin up or rockabilly style she’s currently sporting, so it’s probably just a daily routine for her |

Awesome. Ahaha. Twin Peaks is never far away, is it? Tom is so real for depicting the goth/emo to 50s fashion pipeline. It's a real consequence of going "I'm tired of wearing all black!" and it could happen to a goth near you. Huh. Maybe they try to study the era of gentlemen in Steam Locomotive Halloween Suits (late ⅩⅨ to early ⅩⅩ century) and then go “O-o-okay, that was a bit too much. What was before?.. Nice, but logistically impossible. Let’s look at the next”?  P.S. The toucans are not what they seem. |

From goth to rockabilly. I can dig it. Now, I really want to know what Cookie looks like.

Oh wow, Jenny is so many people I know, how did I not see this coming ever at all!
* I am also someone who has had a gothier (goth-adjacent, more punk) phase and a vintage-y phase
* I don't feel seen so much as shamed :'D

The question is, is Jenny still a witch? She looks more like Dorothy now.  Probably not a mere apprentice any more. |

"You won't believe this, but we went through a whole character arc where she split in a light and a dark half, and we kept this one. Our little clique's had like twelve arcs between us, you've maybe had one of your own. I can tell by the hair clip."

Probably a Jenny reveal next. I wonder why the page break, though. Has she become jaw-droppingly gorgeous? Are her and Jack about to be teenage parents? Has she grown a third leg? Does she have Annie's leg? ... Or is it ALL OF THE ABOVE??? 1. Yep 2. Unknown 3. No 4. Still possible |

I actually really liked Jenny's look from the Torn Sea, calling it "generic goth" seems kind of unnecessarily harsh. I am also highly skeptical of Jenny's claim that her change in style counts as "getting over herself". Feels to me like she's implying that the goth thing was just a desperate ploy for attention, while this ultra-femme 50s vintage style is her natural, casual, look. Kind of uncannily like Shell - "I only wear it when I don't care how I look". Sure, girl. Suuuuuure.

Her personality wasn't goth-like either! She was pretty bubbly and positive really.
Now, I can't look at her without thinking of Fallout. |
