    Default Witching Hour question

    So I finally got around to reading Witching Hour, and found it to be one of the best DC stories featuring magic in a long time. I’ve found the new series much easier to read than the 2011 series for some reason.
    Really good.

    I caught the ‘fifth’ vessel early on, and waited for the reveal and wasn’t disappointed.

    However, when Nightshade saved a few of the girls from the attack by Witchfire, one of the survivors that appears with her later looked like she was either Enchantress or Lilith. And they never mentioned her name.
    Does anyone know which one she was.
    I would assume Enchantress would be the most likely assumption.
    Please don’t mention any spoilers, however, as I just finished #4 and have a long way to go to get caught up.

    Thanks, but I got those...

    I was referring to this girl here.
    Looking at her again now, she really doesn't look like either Enchantress or Lilith.
    She looks too young to be Enchantress, and the hair isn't right for Lilth.
    Could she be a third green-cloaked female mystic?





    She even looks to be drawn differently in both panels.

    Interestingly, when the final confrontation begins, she no longer appears and is replaced by Black Alice, who hadn't appeared when Nightshade popped up in the previous issue with Traci and the mystery girl.

    And going back to the issue where Witchfire attacks the girls in the bar...

    There's this image.



    Again, her costume looks a bit different, and matches Enchantress more.

    I'm beginning to think it was Enchantress and the artists goofed on her costume in the last two issues of the story.

    I agree. I always assumed it was the Enchantress. It seems as if she appeared differently every time she showed up after new 52. I thought she had an interesting new look when Justice League Dark debuted, but it didn't last beyond that first arc. The cloak outfit is very generic, IMHO.

    It seems she appeared again during Nightmaster's service in #5, looking very much like the second image above with the gold trim.
    She was sitting with the rest of Shadowpact, so it had to be her.

    Forget the green cloaked mystic...is the flying black haired woman in the first image and the same costume but with a mask seated left in the second...Eve Eden/Nightshade's current look (or look during the series)?

    Yeah, that's Nightshade's current look. Or was during the start of JLDark. (I'm still in the first year.)



    Mind you, there were a few artists involved and she had the mask on in one issue and without in the next, even though she hadn't gone anywhere.

    The editor should've caught that (and Enchantress's costume errors).
