Covers for the first six episodes of The Magnus Archives!

I’ve slated myself with the task of making covers for all the episodes, which will probably take me a year, but it’ll be good for me to be drawing more consistently again ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

S1- Sasha has a crush on Jon; Jon thinks he’s too good for her. Tim is a massive twink; subtle feelings for Jon are shown. Martin gets made fun of a lot. Jane Prentiss tries to seduce Martin. Angry that he spurns her, she attacks the Institute. Michael is nonbinary and portrayed as predatory. Elias is a misogynist. (idk why this is super undetailed compared to the other ones)

  S2- Sasha is replaced by the not-them who is way more attractive than her; Jon falls for her. Martin gets made fun of a lot. Tim grows strangely depressed and begins to act out of character. (I feel like his parents come to stay with him or something and start making fun of him for being gay so he tones down his queerness.) This makes Jon suspicious of him. Helen comes and gives her statement and Jon cheats on Sasha with her. When he finds out that Michael ate her he is full of manly rage. He still is with [not] Sasha tho. Jon is devastated when he finds out that Sasha was killed by the not-them since he loved her all along. Daisy and Basira are still suspicious of Jon, pretty much business as usual with them. Also, Jon finds out that Elias and Gertrude were married and he is the product of Gertrude’s affair with Leitner. 

  S3 - Jon goes to stay with Georgie and Quincy. Georgie is a kindergarten teacher. They start off rocky until Elias realizes that Quincy has inherited some of Jon’s eye powers and kidnaps him (to use him for the apocalypse, though Jon doesn’t know this.) Jon and Georgie bond over saving their child and fall in love again. Then, Jon is kidnapped by Nikola and when Michael comes to kill him, Jon is so clearly enraged about Michael eating Helen that Helen is able to take over Michael through the power of love. However, Jon is disgusted by Helen’s new monstrous form (she just has red eyes and really long fingernails) so he reluctantly travels through her door, telling Helen that he doesn’t believe it’s really her anymore. After this, Jon realizes that he must protect Quincy and Georgie by returning to the Institute. Basira and Melanie still get tricked into joining the Institute. Also, Melanie ran a ghost-themed youtube channel rather than a ghost hunt one. When Jon goes to visit Jude, he brings Melanie along and there is weird sexual tension between them. Later they are shown fxcking. When Jon visits Mike Crew instead of Mike Vasting him, they get in a physical fight. Then Daisy comes and takes Mike by surprise. She realizes that since Jon was fighting Mike he must be good so they go back to the Institute together where the Elias scene happens. Also, when Tim finds out that Jon was kidnapped by Nikola he vows to get revenge and is shown being super dedicated to stopping the Unknowing. He lies and says that he had a brother who was taken by them so no one suspects his feelings. At the Unknowing, Nikola says she’ll kill Jon if Tim doesn’t confess his feelings so he does. Also, Gertrude comes to Jon the same as before (she looks super young for an old lady) and says she’s disappointed in him. Same with Leitner. Daisy kills Hope and is put in the Buried by Breekon but this is portrayed as her being strong but just not strong enough. Then Tim sacrifices himself to save everyone.

  S4 - After watching Jon nearly die, Basira realizes she loves Jon. She visits him in the hospital everyday. Then Ophelia (Oliver) Banks comes and goes into Jon’s dream to bang him which wakes him up. At first, Basira is really jealous and acts hostile to Jon but their feelings finally culminate and they kiss. Meanwhile, Peter Lukas–who is bitter because Gertrude rejected him–asks Martin if he wants revenge on the archival staff for making fun of him all the time. Martin says yes and turns evil and starts working for Peter. It turns out that when the Flesh attacked, Melanie got a slaughter bullet in her bc Jared just happened to be using a slaughter gun. The only reason Basira and Melanie are alive is because Helen saved them (same as before except in this one Melanie is incapable and weak.) After Jon removes the slaughter bullet from Melanie she realizes she loves him. Jon has some conflict but he decides he likes Melanie better. They are together for a while but ultimately break up because Melanie is too much of a SJW. Breekon delivers the coffin and Jon ceaseless watches him in rage at him having Daisy in the coffin. He goes in there. He and Daisy frick in there and now they are together. Jon asks Daisy to give up the Hunt because obviously he knows what’s best for her and she does it. Then they go to stop Manuela together. Meanwhile, Melanie tries to find out Peter and Martin’s plan. She and Martin start to bond over being weirdo outsiders. When Daisy and Jon find Manuela she is a cold, sexy-but-traumatized femme fatale. Jon starts to know her to death or whatever he did to Breekon because he is struggling with his humanity but then Daisy begs him to stop. Helen shows up and eats Manuela. Daisy and Jon get mad at her for this because it’s evil or whatever. Then they return to the Institute. Jon starts being suspicious about Annabelle Cane so he goes to Hilltop Road alone. Annabelle Cane is there and she’s Russian and wearing all leather. She says she’ll tell Jon her plan if he fricks her. Jon wants to say no but the Web compels him to do it (this is portrayed as hot rather than as rape.) Anyway, so Jon and Anabelle Cane frick and then Anabelle gives Jon her statement before leaving stealthily. When Jon returns, Melanie says there’s tapes from Martin on her desk. Martin apparently was having second guesses about being evil because of his newfound love for Melanie. Trevor, Julia, and the not-them show up so Daisy kisses Jon and sacrifices herself back into the hunt to stop them. Basira is killed in the mix. Who knows what Melanie is doing. And Jon goes to the panopticon to stop Peter and Martin. Meanwhile, things go down as usual except Peter has kidnapped Georgie in order to lure Jon. He chucks Georgie and Martin into the lonely. Jon goes in there to save them but is only able to bring Georgie back but he does manage to destroy Lukas. Jon asks Melanie to take care of Quincy so that Quincy can be safe from anything that follows Jon. Then Jon and Georgie go to the safehouse together and frick a lot. Jon starts the eyepocalypse or whatever idk.
