Morgana/Comics

Season 4
Morgana makes her debut in Issue 68 in a flashback as Roxy and the Winx inform the Fortress of Light Council of the events that took place on Earth.

Once Musa is given the transmitter, she puts it on and picks up the story where Flora had left off. Though she had been preoccupied with her budding musical career in Gardenia thanks to a local music producer named Jason Queen, Roxy and the rest of the Winx had defeated the Wizards of the Black Circle and traveled to the island of Tir Na Nog: a mysterious island that Roxy was being led to by the White Circle. While there, Roxy managed to open the passageway leading into the Fairy Kingdom, which was locked away by the Wizards to keep all the Earth Fairies prisoner. Immediately afterwards, she and the Winx met with Morgana, the Earth Fairy High Queen, and her many followers, and began to rejoice over having finally freed them until Queen Morgana swore vengeance against the Wizards who trapped them, as well as the humans who forgot and abandoned them. That is when the Winx all realized that Morgana had been contacting Roxy through her dreams to get her to bring the White Circle back to its rightful place on Tir Na Nog and, now that she and Earth Fairies had regained their freedom, Morgana ushered in the Age of Vengeance. It was thanks to this proclamation of Morgana's that Diana, Major Fairy of the Amazon, launched an attack on Gardenia to allow plants to take back the land ravaged by humans.

After Tecna passes the transmitter over to Roxy, Roxy explains to the Council that she and the other Winx were eventually sought out by the Wizards of the Black Circle who wanted them as their bodyguards as they awaited a proper trial. None of the girls could refuse the Wizards, even if it meant going against Morgana's wishes, and agreed to watch over and protect them until their trial. However, when the day of the trial arrived, the Wizards launched their last attack: a deadly trap made to suck up all fairies within the area, including Morgana herself. Luckily, Nabu was able to disable the Wizards' trap but at the cost of his life. However, something amazing came out of such a tragedy, as Roxy finally learned that Morgana had been seeking her out through her dreams because she was her mother. The two shared a heartfelt reunion after she and the other Winx rescued her after she was usurped by Nebula, the Major Fairy of War. Afterwards, the Winx rushed into the Omega Dimension to engage in one final showdown against the Wizards as Morgana reclaimed the respect of her Warrior Fairies.

After the remaining Wizards were defeated, everyone returned to Earth where Morgana stepped down and appointed Nebula as the new Earth Fairy High Queen until Roxy grew old enough to properly succeed her. She then left for Gardenia to live with Roxy and her father Klaus as a happy family.

Morgana finally makes her physical debut in Issue 85 in her home with Klaus. The Winx had rushed over to see how Roxy's parents were doing after seeing the Frutti Music Bar in shambles after what looked like a fire. Roxy only finds herself worrying for her parents more and more when she sees Morgana in a sickly state. Though Morgana tries to assure Roxy that she will be fine, Roxy is frantic over how no one told her about the Frutti Music Bar being burned down and Morgana's declining health, prompting Klaus explains that neither he or Morgana wanted to worry her.

After Klaus explains the current state of the Bar, Bloom asks Morgana how long she has not been feeling well and though she is not so sure, Morgana claims that it may have started sometime after a break-in. Klaus then explains that someone broke into their house about a week ago and stole a few things; one of which being an old necklace that Morgana was very fond of. Klaus and the Winx begin to suspect that the new Cocoa Dancing Disco Club that mysteriously opened after the Frutti Music Bar burned down until Klaus cuts their discussion short after noticing Morgana becoming increasingly exhausted.

Before they leave to check out this new club, Roxy decides to stay in Gardenia for a few days to take care of Morgana and Morgana thanks her and tells her how much she loves her as Roxy kisses her cheek.

In Issue 86, Morgana appears in her home with Klaus as the Winx visit her to see if her health has improved. Morgana insists that she feels much better now that Roxy has come back and claims that she will heal up very soon. Roxy then promises her that she and the other Winx will protect her and believes that they will defeat the forces of evil for good one day as they were capable of banishing the Wizards of the Black Circle. This prompts Morgana into telling Roxy that, unfortunately, evil can never be fully eradicated as it is an necessary part of the universe. She goes on to explain that without evil, no one could understand what makes good deeds good and light would not be able to exist without darkness. The forces of good and evil are so heavily intertwined in all parts of the universe that balance between the two is what moves all things in existence, and she tells Roxy that she and the other Winx must still never lose hope in even the toughest of fights. Morgana then sees the Winx off with Klaus as they head out to an aquarium that recently opened to enjoy themselves.

Morgana is only briefly mentioned in Issue 87 by Bloom. After the Winx have captured the remaining trio of Wizards, Ogron, Anagan and Gantlos, Bloom demands to know where they have hidden Morgana's stolen necklace to get them to stop trying to coax Gregory into joining them. Unfortunately, the Winx get no information of the necklace's whereabouts and Gregory frees the Wizards, showing that he places more of his trust in them than the Winx. In the beginning of Issue 95, Morgana is scared awake after having a nightmare of shadows approaching her to devour her. She then finds herself in a beautiful and lively forest the next night, only for the forest to start dying rapidly due to the darkness swallowing it all.

Later that day, Klaus and the Winx try to ease Morgana of her worries, but Morgana cannot help but fear that her nightmares may have been more than just nightmares because they were so real. She briefly describes her recent nightmares to everyone which causes Stella to ask if her dreams may have been a premonition of what is to come and, though Roxy tries to scold Stella for asking such a question, Morgana confesses that Stella may be right as the mythical barriers in dreams can be broken more easily than those in reality. She then explains to Roxy that even though her magic is fading, the amount she still has could have been sufficient enough to open a window into the future—a future ruled by Neruman and his shadows.

Just then, Morgana comes down with another headache and Klaus helps her back up to her room to rest. As they leave, Roxy begins to worry over her mother's well-being again and the Winx try to cheer her up by promising that they will take back her mother's necklace so that she can regain her powers and become a powerful fairy once again. Roxy hopes that they are right and reveals to the girls that Morgana's necklace is not just a simple object, but the very source of Morgana's energy—one that encloses her vital essences—so without it she will die.

The girls then continue up the staircase as they try to figure out their next step as Neruman's shadows and the Wizards of the Black Circle have suddenly vanished without a trace. They eventually reach Morgana's room, where she and Klaus hear Roxy claim that they have no prepared enough for their situation. Seeing how stressed Roxy has become prompts Morgana and Klaus to send her and the Winx off to Gardenia Stadium for a concert being held by Roxy's favorite band, the White Crystals. Though Roxy is reluctant to do so, Morgana manages to convince her to take a break and have fun with her friends. She embraces Roxy one more time before she leaves and insists that she is grateful for the tremendous amounts of help that the Winx have been doing for her sake.

The next day, Morgana is informed by the Winx of their fight against the Wizards at Gardenia Stadium and Stella's strange actions. Hearing all of this causes Morgana to realize that the necklace that Stella had put on after the Wizards' defeat was not hers but a sinister copy created by Neruman, as her necklace's magical aura is so powerful that it would never succumb to dark magic. She goes on to explain that their bout last night was all a trap the Wizards had laid down for Stella as Neruman had his eye out for her the whole time. When asked why Stella would be so important to Neruman, Morgana reminds them of her nightmares and tells them of a new one she had: one where Stella was standing next to a powerful dark force. She realizes that these nightmares have all been premonitions of what is to come to Solaria and that Neruman plans to use Stella to help him destroy the Second Sun of Solaria because without it, the Magical Universe would be plunged into darkness and despair; the perfect environment for his powers.

Having heard all of this, the Winx make haste for Solaria as Morgana stays on Earth to recover.

After foiling Neruman's plans and defeating the Wizards for real, the Winx learn that Morgana's necklace had been left in the hands of a man named Balazar, Neruman's closest follower and right-hand man. Ogron goes on to tell the girls that both of them plan to use the ancient magic within Morgana's necklace to open up a portal to the Dark Dimension to free the Lord of Shadows and allow for him to exact his vengeance against the Fortress of Light. Having learned all of this, Roxy begins to dread the possibility of never finding Morgana's necklace but Bloom promises her that they will find and return the necklace to her mother.

Morgana is not seen or mentioned again until much later in Issue 97 where, after checking to see if Bloom had returned from Domino, Roxy reveals to her and Stella that Morgana's condition is getting weaker as her magical energies have escaped her. Roxy becomes more distressed over the thought of Morgana slipping into critical condition as Bloom and Stella try to console her.

Morgana is mentioned several times throughout the issue as the Winx journey to the Fortress of Light and find both the Dark Dimension Portal and Balazar with her necklace. Completely unaware of what is in store for them, Bloom hands the necklace over to one of the fortress' templars and pleads for him to return it to its rightful owner in case they are unable to return.

Fortunately, the Winx cross back out from the portal after having defeated Neruman once and for all. The same templar whom Bloom handed the necklace over to gives it back to her and she and the Winx later return it to Morgana by the end of the issue. With her necklace back in her under her rightful possession, Morgana recovers her magical powers and slowly becomes the powerful and healthy fairy queen she once was.
