Page link Mina definitely still has Patchworm here, since she's got those glasses and they haven't changed to match it as much as they have in the modern day. That looks like a different spirit we haven't seen. Maybe Mina is already getting into her spirit creation experiments here?

Yep we've seen Sockpuppet twice, in brief flashbacks to her childhood. https://www.paranatural.net/comic/chapter-5-page-154 https://www.paranatural.net/comic/chapter-5-page-267-268 The way Patchworm and Hijack talk about it it sounds like the puppet died or some such and isn't with Mina anymore.

We saw Mina's sock-puppet spirit here and here. I think there's been some speculation they're the spirit that died when the Ghost Train got attacked? And if they didn't die then, they've been dead for a bit. EDIT: Aaaaaaah I had the message opened too long, RIP.

The Mina shot is of Hijack in abstract because the two images are juxtaposing Spender's attempt to contain a spirit and Mina's attempt to control one with the text that says neither of those are a valid tactic here.

Based on the tendrils coming off Sockpuppet I assume that it was Mina's first spirit and the blueprint by which she created all her other control-centric spirits, if creating them wasn't directly related to its death somehow.

Since Mina's spirits seem to be about control and manipulation, and with the framing of the 4th panel specifically putting "they can not be controlled" onto Mina looking petulant, I wonder if she somehow ran afoul of a Wight before and/or had something to do with the Doctor's disappearance or with their experiments on Wights.

I just realized that the reason Penny doesn’t want to become known as having white spirit energy is that the Consortium would put her under immense pressure to become the next leader.

I'm going to keep railing this topic; but I really love Disco Walker here. I also wish that these kids had been more trusting because if anyone is cracking here it's Boss Leader herself.

Following the trend of the rest of the comic, eight billion secrets and not nearly enough trust to share any of the important ones before sudden existence failure in a world with vampires, mediums for vengeful spirits, and potential excrementalists.

Is this the first time we've seen Spender without his glasses? I've honestly never noticed I guess it makes perfect sense as he's said previously that he's a medium for the Extremely Dangerous Spirit, and he didn't otherwise show any indication of it
