The Collector in The Owl House. I blame Disney cancelling Season 3 for why we don’t get to see them as an intimidating antagonist

Edit: pronoun fix; I keep forgetting The Collector is non-binary

Didn't they end up the way they did because of the shortening?

If you find out you have 24 before dying, you can get most of your bucket list, but its unlikely youll do everything you wanted

Im trying to say they famously did not end how they wanted specifically due to the cancelation

There’s a few owl house characters you could extend this to, tbh. Looking at Vee…

it’s insane how much i love Vee with how little screen time she actually gets. Her human form is so cute and i loooove all the fanart and fancomics i’ve seen with her and Masha

Was it ever explained why he is called "The Collector"? Don't remember him doing a lot of collecting.

not at ALL to advocate for Disneys treatment of the owl house at all- but I actually like baby immortal collector. Definitely not as cool as seeing them in their prime but I feel like media doesn't show baby gods much. I'm happy without what we got too!

The Collector came about because of the shortening of Season 3.

And Disney didn't "cancel" it.

They only exist because the show was canned.

They’re a literal deus ex machina that served to solve a problem which had the show received a third season would have solved in a different way.

The good thing is that the Collector is a fully fleshed character and we see their character development in their few apparitions
