two teenage witches



Since it's the end of October, let's talk about two witches. The NETFLIX drama `` Sabrina: Dark Adventure '' is often referred to as a reboot or remake of the drama `` Sabrina ,'' which aired from 1996 to 2003 (although the two are actually similar and different). , are rather separate works based on the same comic.


``Sabrina the Witch'', released by Archie Comics in the 1970s, depicts the daily life of a teenage witch, as the original title suggests, with Archie's unique comical touch.

The elements are quiet, and the content is quite dark and gruesome. Sabrina Spellman, who is about to undergo a dark baptism ceremony on her 16th birthday, struggles between the human world and the demon world as a half-human and half-magician, and eventually comes face to face with the secrets of her lineage and birth. . Unlike in the 90s, Sabrina knows that she is a witch before she turns 16, but with a baptism event on her birthday, she will learn new things from there. It's made.
