La historia se pone más interesante, vemos un poco más de la relación de Bloom y las chicas. Siendo este el verdadero comienzo de las Winx Club, ideando el nombre del grupo.
Además, nos deja ver como la protagonista tiene bien claro que las chicas pueden hacer todo por sí mismas y sin la ayuda de un chico para mantener las cosas bajo control. Poco a poco las relaciones crecen y se vuelven más afianzadas o más problematicas.

The third comic, The Boys from Red Fountain is the first to properly deviate from the TV shows plotline. It does slightly mirror Season 1, Episode 4 “The Black-Mud Swamp” in that the specialists are transporting the Troll, but the actual events are different (with some added depth for characters).
At the start of the book we’re introduced to Timmy and Riven as the girls talk about meeting them at the dance. They’re both insinuated as bad choices for Tecna and Musa, but the rest of the comic then focuses on Brandon and Sky instead.
This part probably would have fit better in the previous comic, showing them meeting during the dance instead of during girl talk. Although in the Winx Club show I don’t believe they’re mentioned at all for the dance. The girls chatting also felt like it had rougher artwork, so perhaps this was added after to fill out the pages and introduce the pair of them earlier in the series of comics.
The key change in this book is that there’s an explicit assassination attempt of Prince Sky, which isn’t in the series. There’s a thought out plan to get him attacked, which he narrowly survives with the help on the Winx girls. This gives his character a bit more depth as you wonder who and why (and I hope we find out!).
On the other hand, we know this isn’t the doing of the Trix because in the same comic it emphasises they don’t take issue with the specialists. Whilst they have a vendetta towards Stella, wanting her sceptre, they leave Sky alone when they appear in the protected lands.
This story also brings us some more building on what is taught at Alfea. Whilst the series focuses on sneaking out and the adventures taken by the Winx Club, the comics are showing they learn alot from classes. With Flora stating “Moving together in harmony makes everyone stronger! It’s the first thing they teach at Alfea!” it gives more depth to the fairies and why they form an immediate connection.
This connection is also what pushes them to become the Winx Club. Whilst they are friends (and they call themselves this!), they’re not all as close to each other and conflict is shown between them. Stella and Bloom are very different from Tecna, Musa and Flora with the former being more laid back and ready to jump without thinking. So this helps overcome this central conflict, which will hopefully improve as the comics go on.

The comics definitely have my second favorite story of how they came up with the name Winx Club! (My personal favorite is the 4Kids version)
Also, comic Sky (currently "Brandon) is awful wth, real Sky would never.

This time we get to see Fontanarroja's boys meeting the girls, which is something the cartoon never shows the viewers! I wish I could put into words how funny and exciting this was.
(Yes, I'm still riding the episodes' marathon giddiness and it won't stop anytime soon.)
Each comic brings something different for cartoon-only fans so while I want to hold back on reading them all in a go, it's proving to be preeety hard.

-1 star because there are some pacing issues and the dialogues cut weirdly in this - I was very confused multiple times throughout the comic.
