comment |
Queen of Wands was a webcomic by Aeire that ran from 2002 to 2005. It centered around the life of Kestrel, an excitable twenty-something living in Denver, and her married roommates, Felix and Shannon. The comic itself is loosely based on the life of the artist. After the comic completed its initial run, Aeire "reran" all of the strips with commentary added at the bottom.Kestrel has since gone on to become a recurring character in Something*Positive, while the character Angela has her own spinoff, Punch an' Pie. |

comment |
Only Six Faces: Possibly why the art on Punch An' Pie is done by another artist- most of the female characters had identical faces with different hair. Their boss Dawna looked like all the other females, until Punch An' Pie revealed her to be older and much heavier. |

comment |
Real Dreams are Weirder: Felix has some weird dreams. One was about some weasels jumping in 'barley butter', which for some reason was a menace to some biscuits. In another one, he didn't want his brain to be pickled because he needed it for a ball. |

Wholesome Crossdresser: Felix, in one arc, reveals that he occasionally likes to dress in drag to go out clubbing. Shannon is startled, but decides that she's okay with it as long as he warns her ahead of time - and gets his own bras. |

When he finds out that she's actually his brother's favorite coworker and meant no harm by the remark, he takes her to dinner as an apology. |

Good Parents: Kestrel, in one of the flashbacks to before the strip, insists that Shannon is this when she gives up custody of her son Joshua. She knows that her ex-husband can give the little boy a much better life than she can afford to do as a single mother, so even though it completely destroys her, she signs away her parental rights. |
