Promethea: Difference between revisions

* [[Gender Bender]] - While Promethea is always female, one of the incarnations was actually male, and transformed when needed - the fact that he was a gay man was a factor in some unfortunate circumstances. There's also one of the Five Swell Guys, who seems to have suffered a [[Mandys Law of Anime Gender Bending|permanent one-way transformation to female]]

* [[The Ghost]]: the Night Queen is referenced repeatedly, but never actually appears.

* [[Hermetic Magic]]: it's by Alan Moore, what did you expect?

* [[Higher Self]]: Promethea herself is a higher self to the various people who embody her. The Angel Boo-Boo definitely is, {{spoiler|being the guardian angel and divine expression of the previous Promethea, Barbara Shelley}}.

* [[Rule of Symbolism]]

* [[The Scrappy]]: Little Margie is an in-universe example. As the fictional creation of Margaret, she's stuck [[Tagalong Kid|hanging around]] for eternity in the Immateria with her and the other deceased Promethea hosts, and her ''[[Little Nemo]]''-like exclamations get on their nerves.

** Also references to everything from [[Conan the Barbarian]] (Stacia) to [[The Bible]] (Solomon).

* [[The Smart Guy]]: The Five Swell Guys actually have two of these, which later becomes a plot point.
