Talking About the Mundane, Headcanons, and Meta

Has it been four years since I'd written this? Man, time does fly. So, I mainly talked about why I liked the Star/Marvel comic interpretation of Lexor more than the cartoon's. Despite it being six issues long -and being cancelled half way through a four-part storyline-, I'm impressed that the writers decided to leave some room for Lexor to grow as a character; we can see where he can improve and/or becoming worse.

I have been pondering on a fanmade third-part of the cancelled storyline where Lexor and Mortdred are teamed up to outsmart Ectar and Witterquick to obtain the Fire Crystal. I also have a headcanon for Lexor's kingdom having the crystal, and because of it they're the best place to get armor, weapons, and other items because it's made fast because of the amplified fire and heat.

Cross posting from Pillowfort; I made this moodboard over three years ago. I still like how it came out, and I would like to get back into some day.

Mortdred is one of those characters where the character gag should have been used sparingly or kicked to the curb never to be seen again. I wrote an essay discussing how much of a hindrance the "lol, he's a sycophant!" gag becomes in the cartoon. When in the comics, there's a glimpse of it being more than a joke; where it's more of an examination of his character and why he does the things that he does. Sadly, in the comics were cancelled and so that idea will never be expanded upon.

Well, here's the AO3 link, here, or you can read it down below, too.

I posted this back in June 18th, 2020 for the March Meta Matters Challenge along with Meta Manifesto 2020 Fest. I'm still proud of it and I find myself re-reading it to this day.

I wanted to write about my favorite Darkling Lord, Cravex, because he has many (potential) layers to his character than most fans will ever talk about or even explore in fanfiction. In essences, I wanted to share what I thought of him and maybe someone felt the same way that I do.
