The Witch from Snow White
The Wicked Witch from Disney's movie
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937),
actually the Evil Queen in a magic disguise. Although seemingly
killed at the end of her movie (by a fall from a cliff), she subsequently
appeared in countless comics stories as late as the 1970's,
not just co-starring
Snow White and the Dwarfs, but also such a diverse cast of characters as
Brer Rabbit,
Chip and Dale,
Captain Hook, and
Dumbo.
A story in the Italian
Topolino 1571
by Romano Scarpa gave an explanation as
to how the Witch survived her fall and why she was unable to transform back
to her true form as the Queen; ironically, at the time of this story she had
already been a semi-regular character for nearly 30 years.
[By Jonathan Markoff.]
Other witches are Magica De Spell,
Witch Hazel, and Mad Madam Mim.
