Dark Shadows Comic Strip Season 7: The Coven Convenes!

Previously on Dark Shadows: The Comic Strip Series: Gerard Stiles, demon prince of hell, has wreaked quite a bit of havoc at the Collinwood of 1840 (and through his demonic powers, reached out to wreak even more havoc for Lady Kitty Hampshire in 1897). He has murdered Flora Collins, queen of the Collinsport coven and devotee of Diabolos; he has tormented Angelique by showing her that his powers are greater than her own; and he has turned Barnabas' beloved Roxanne into a vampire. But Barnabas, Julia, and Angelique aren't taking any of Gerard's hijinks sitting down. Angelique has convened a coven of her own: Nicholas Blair, her old enemy and mentor; Aristede, her beloved brother and Nicholas' lover; Leticia Faye, psychic; and a host of others ...

Dark Shadows ... 1966!

Having finished the last episode, I'm going to tackle the first year, which again, much like experience with the last year of the show, I've never been able to take all the way through. But quarantining has taught me patience if nothing else, so ... here ... we ... go!

The End of Dark Shadows

So today, after three months of quarantine, I finished Dark Shadows. I've seen my favorite storylines numerous times, but I've never actually finished Summer of 1970, every episode of 1840, or 1841 Parallel Time at all. When quarantine started, I was up to around 800. I had started with the Barnabas episodes last summer, and because I had just watched 1795, once I reached it in the late fall, I skipped directly to Vicki's return to 1968, and kept going from there. So it was quite an experience ... and tomorrow I'll do what I've never done, and start with episode 1 ... and go from there. (We'll see if I can do all of 1970 PT, 1840, and 1841 PT again ... odds are not in my favor.)

To celebrate, here are some shots from 1841 Parallel Time. I really enjoyed it; probably because, after the insanity of the last year, 1841 felt nice and focused and contained. (Though I did miss Angelique.)
