hehehehehe! That's the funniest part of the comics - of all the sisters, PHOEBE of all people shows off the least skin! I guess getting married and having kids have changed our FREEbie back to Phoebe!

I am dissapointed by the fact that Phoebe's belly button hasn't been featured in the comics yet. It was an important character in the later seasons and had very interesting plotlines. It had a well deserved place on the top of the ending credits, so I am curious to know where the character went. I am really disappointed they gotten rid of this character. (This is sarcasm by the way I know your being sarcastic, but, not having seen a lot of the later seasons, was there ever any mention of how much flesh she showed (other than the horrid Bare Witch incident) on the show its self? Cause someone really should have told her to put on a coat. Es, if you look up a little ways you will see that I commented on the hair color of the twins (among other things). I even tweeted a question to the authors and got a response from Paul Ruditis on it. I've been getting a lot of flack from fans on my question, mostly because they point out that it could have come from anywhere. I did recall that we don't actually know Sam's hair color (I don't think) and there's the hair colors in "Witchstock" to consider. One thing that occured to me as a result of all the people's comments is that maybe Paige changed her hair to match her daughters, when it turned out they had that hair color. I don't approve of the method which according to Paul Ruditis was used and I'm not sure he really understands what those words mean, because you don't just do that on a long term basis. A spell maybe, but a glamour? Not really.

Perhaps it was just a joke. I see that as a possibility. I think in reality it is just a coloration error.
Although I do find everyone elses theory as plausible. I have friends who are twins(one male and one female) who both have blonde hair, while their parents both have brown hair. The funny thing about the twins having red hair though is that red hair is uncommon. Some researchers believe there were other color hairs like green and blue, but they got lost in the gene pool, and they believe red hair will dissapear eventually too.
Now if we take his comment seriously, it may be personal gain, but it we don't exactly know why Paige were to do that. For all we know they could have been born without pigmentation in their hair.

A spell maybe, but a glamour? Not really. Well, I'll admit that I haven't been reading this thread because it's been loaded with spoilers and I don't want to be spoiled. Teased by a preview like this, yes; spoiled, no. And I looked back a few pages and couldn't find the post you mentioned. Which reply # is it? (Don't post a link; they don't work. Just the reply # please. Thanks. First to admit that I know that two dark-haired (and Sam's hair even with the grey is dark, too) can have a blonde child (although a redhead is less likely, since that's the most uncommon gene for hair color), but I still think they just did it to keep the twins separate from Piper's daughter, who (due to Leo), could've been blonde. And, yes, she was brunette in Forever Piper, pardon me, Forever Charmed but Paige's twins definitely weren't redheads, so if they changed Paige's to keep them separate, they definitely could have changed Piper's.

A few pages! Wow. No, you don't have to look that far, Es. It's on this page. I believe they are #154 and #156. Hope that helps.

LOL, yes, it was in #156 and I just totally missed it. But it was in the midst of what looked like spoilers, so I didn't see it.
I still think that you *could* come up with reasons, but none make a lot of sense. However as I said, if they keep writing characters who I love, I'll only be irritated at some of them not looking proper; I won't hate them as I did when their insides were so hideous as they were in S6-8.

Lets just pretend that the ginger hair comes from Henrys side of the family And I can totally see Paige dying her hair to match her kids lol. I was also hoping that we were gonna see Piper/Phoebe going to visit Prues funeral but visiting the innocent is good.

Lets just pretend that the ginger hair comes from Henrys side of the family LOL! You're right about that - Henry could get his dark hair from his father while his mother might have ginger hair or vice versa. I can go with that! LOL! So can I! Hmmm, there's another possibility. With all that Melinda and Prue have done, maybe the the twins decided they want ginger hair and want Mom to have it to match and Paige decided she likes it! Poor Henry! Imagine *his* reaction! ----------------------------- I was just happy for the mention of Prue - a lot better shout-out than a jump-the-shark theft of her powers! And seeing Brittany as old again and watching Piper get upset again was a lot of fun! Most of all - she got mad, upset, rather than feeling sorry for herself! I *loved* it! And Phoebe noticing Leo's tight pants... Oh, I cracked up! I really do think I'm going to love this series! Thank you, Paul Ruditis!

I just hope that we get an arc where Magic School gets DESTROYED. Its horriable in tv and comics.
And ya loved that moment in the preview and Piper saying that it feels like they are also losing a part of Prue.

I also want to see the destruction of magic school, and make it as epic as possible! >

Amen! It would be a dream come true!!
But somehow I doubt we'll be that lucky - after all, at the end of "Forever Charmed", we saw Leo with his grandson Matthew at Magic School...
If ONLY they hadn't showed those stupid happy-ever-after scenes so the writers could have done it their way, we might just have gotten our wish... LOL, and, yes, a lot of other wishes, too... (No other kids besides Wyatt and Chris being HIGH on the list!)

Luckly Charmed has atleast shown that the future can change. The writers shouldnt feel they have to lead to that future shown in Forever Charmed. Get a villan from the future, go into the past and change it. No more Magic School.

*sigh* We can hope...
Although I wish they'd used my idea for a Charmed movie - find out that Forever Charmed (or, better, Season Eight) was nothing but a dream or delusions seen by Piper as she either almost died after the Kill Billie, Vol 2 explosion (or, better, after the explosion in "Something Wicca This Way Goes?") Unfortunately, that's not how the comic book started.

Believe me, it's VERY vivid and seems VERY real - I seemed to live an entire week in less than 5 minutes, so I can imagine what it would be like if you were REALLY hurt and out for awhile as Piper would've/should've been. It's why I've suggested it.

Why not go further and have S4-8 just be one big dream by Prue who has been in a comma for 10 years.

There you go. Prue is in a coma and while she's in that coma she finds out what would happen if she actually died, which ultimately gives her the strength to wake up out of that coma, because she can't stand to see her sisters end up that way.

LOVE it!! Absolutely love it!! Obviously this isn't the route the comics want to take but if anyone wants to write it as fanfic - go for it! The big question - would they still meet Paige or would you write her totally out of it? Me, I'd still like to have her meet her as a friend, but not find out that she's also a sister until the very last episode! Maybe she's the one who ends up saving all of the others when they die or something, the way Paige *should've* panic-orbed out and been the one who saved her sisters in Forever Charmed -- not Piper!

But if Prue had that dream wouldn't she want to find out if Paige actually was their sister?

But would she though. I could see Prue bumping her off to "save her sisters".
