"Oh mighty Isis..." ✨ 𖦹 ✨ Storyboarding project to reimagine the intro of the iconic (to me) 70′s Saturday morning show!
+ bonus design sheet! Joanna Cameron was a fantastic Andrea, but I wanted to reimagine the character as Adrianna. I based my redesign off of Egyptian actress Soad Hosny, and added a few details to Isis for practicality/historical accuracy.
The Secrets of Isis, originally broadcast as Isis, is an American live-action superhero television series produced by Filmation from 1975 to 1976 for CBS's Saturday morning lineup. The series was renamed The Secrets of Isis in syndication.
The program was the first weekly American live-action television series with a female superhero lead character, debuting on September 6, 1975, predating the weekly debuts of both The Bionic Woman (January 14, 1976) and Wonder Woman (April 21, 1976). In the series, Isis (Joanna Cameron) is the alter ego of Andrea Thomas, a seemingly normal schoolteacher, who transforms into the Egyptian goddess when presented with crises a mere mortal cannot resolve.
Episodes of the series featured crossovers featuring Captain Marvel from the companion series, Shazam!. Likewise, Joanna Cameron appeared as Isis on Shazam! in return; since then DC Comics has adopted the character of Isis into their mainstream continuity for modern comics.
It plays like a live-action Scooby Doo episode, with a land developer using fake UFOs to frighten people into selling their property. And he would have gotten away with it, too…
This series, a companion to Shazam!, doesn’t seem to have the same charm. At least, based on this first episode.
Only the 7th episode into the 2nd season, The Secrets of Isis came to a conclusion on October 23, 1976. The episode also featured Captain Marvel. ("...And Now You Don't", The Secrets of Isis, TV, event)
The Magician in typical tarot is about personal power. He is the Master of Secrets 😀😄😁😃.
It is very similar to The High Priestess who is a matriarch of spiritual ventures. She’s nurturing and embodiment of the Moon. But she keeps most of her power hidden, doesn’t spread her occult or magical knowledges for everyone.
If you are on the same wavelength and can communicate that way, you will. “If you know, you know!” Says The High Priestess.
He did admit, however, that he had assisted more than once at their orgies, and declared that it was their constant practice to offer young women as sacrifices—preferably white Christian women, with a special preference, if they could get them, to young English women.
