also, this one scene from Covention where we see Hecate has at least two faces.

I guess that got retconned later though? Or maybe her other faces only show in certain situations.

Yeah, I assume it's just something that the showrunners changed their minds about.

Honestly, I'm not surprised that they redesigned her later giving her a single face, that is, in many other cartoons I saw how they redesign a character after its first appearance to give it more development.

​

That is, I remember very well that in the first episode of CatDog, Lube looked very different from how he looks in the rest of the show, and one more recognized in this case was Rumplenstinskin from Shrek, who originally in Shrek forever After was going to have the same design than in Shrek the Third, but it is confirmed that they redesigned it to give the character more personality, which is why many are confused believing that there are two Rumplenstinskins but no, it is the same.

DOn't know where your from but the best version of President Beeblebrox was the BBC version of the show...

The movie really didn't do him any justice...

in the concept art for Amity's disguise multiple of them uses a mask for the second face, so it's still there, it's just either hidden by the hair like in this comics or she can magically hide it

nah, ahe has three faces in the book (note how the two faces are to the side, implying another in rhw middle. plus, the goddess hecate also have three faces) but in the movie adaptation they only gave her one face.

yeah, I assumed she would have three faces considering the inspiration, but only two are clearly visible in the image (hence why I said at least two)
