| 3 | * MagnumOpusDissonance: Mildly, Maguire has said that he's very proud of ''Literature/SonOfAWitch'' and somewhat disappointed that it's not more popular. |
| 4 | * SequelGap: A ten year one between ''Literature/{{Wicked}}'' and ''Literature/SonOfAWitch''. This is why the [[Theatre/{{Wicked}} theatrical musical]] doesn't include any references to ''Son of a Witch''. |
| 5 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: |
| 6 | ** When Maguire first conceived the idea of ''Literature/{{Wicked}}'' in the late 1980s, his focus was on the WhatIsEvil theme, without the political themes of the finished work. But in 1990, when he saw how public outcry against UsefulNotes/SaddamHussein was used to promote US military action in Iraq, he decided to incorporate the theme of how politicians use common enemies to unite the people under their power and further their own ends. |
| 7 | ** Elphaba was originally going to be more genuinely wicked, but as Maguire created her character, he came to love her so much that he had to make her more sympathetic. |
| 8 | * WordOfGay: Maguire had stated that "something" was going on between Elphaba and Glinda, but he [[ShrugOfGod never specified what]]. [[http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lu7tvoxiqL1qhlx07o1_1280.png And then one day, he did]]. |
