Meets length and newness requirements. While I cannot read all the sources, it generally appears well-written and sourced. Hook meets all requirement, and is one of the more interesting facts from the article—and that one is verifiable with the English source. Both hooks are acceptable, though I have a slight preference for the first one, as I think it reads a little more naturally, even if it means the article is linked at the end of the blurb.

Not translated

As far as I can tell, the comics have not been translated to any other language, certainly not English. However, I cannot find a RS to actually say so... so as much as I'd like to add this information to the article, I am not sure if this can be done. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 15:19, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cover

I've used cover of V2 "Geralt" as it is the most "obvious". Other covers can be seen here https://wiedzmin.fandom.com/wiki/Wied%C5%BAmin_(komiks) We cannot feature a gallery due to copyright reasons, sigh. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:41, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
