In my humble opinion, the first 20-30ish issues are the best ones and then after that the decline is wild and steep. I also never really cared for the TV show. I was so excited when it aired and had been waiting to see the girls move and speak for so long. And then the art style, the color palette, the animation and the voice acting was all ugly and cheap and I never understood why they decided that the color palette should be different shades of piss when the comics were so vibrant and lush. But that is just me. Also, legit, after the comics go into the 30s, the entire franchise crashed and burned. It's it's own can of worms and I don't want to bore you, but that was my first experience with becoming a dedicated fan of something and have a big entertainment company come in and annihilate everything that made the franchise good, run it into the dirt in the most disrespectful way and then cancel it because nobody liked it anymore.
I like tarot cards too. The idea of them, that is. I like the imagery and the many different meanings they hold depending in the combinatiom. Ironically, the whole predicting the future part of tarot cards is the least interesting thing to me, but that's how I feel about all these witchy things. It's more so the idea of the weird magic rules and how aesthetic they are that I find so appealing.
