Possible, but quite unlikely. Jim himself has said he does his best to foreshadow things, and having Cowl is TAN DAN TAAA *insert name* moment is one of those things that seem likely to happen.
Having "Cowl removed his hood and he was... generic WC member number 199 i'd seen once in a meeting but had never even mentioned on page" just doesn't cut it.
Hmm! I have a new pet theory that is like 100% sure to happen. Cowl is Malcolm Dresden.

Agreed.
--- Quote ---I can't say I'm entirely faultless, since I'm starting to lean towards the notion that Harry = Merlin the original, but it isn't a firm belief either.
--- End quote ---
I think Harry is probably a descendant of Merlin and there will be some kind of family-coded magic message at some point, which would be another good reason for the RC to try to kill all of Harry's family. (Esp if Merlin is still alive somewhere, like inside Demonreach, for example.)
I voted no, but now that I've read all this, I can see the argument.
And I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks of American Idol when I see Simon=Cowl. :)
Cenphx:
@Silkki--i agree that it wouldnt work to not know anything about the wizard insidethe cowl at te time of the reveal, I guess I was more thinking - is there time before the reveal to build in more info about someone like Lucciozzi or Schneider (which would likely connect up stuff from before we didnt know were clues)? Or does it need to be someone we know more about, just given time constraints? Depending on how many earlier clues we got that we didnt notice or piece together, I think we have time.

--- Quote from: KevinSig on November 30, 2012, 10:36:33 AM ---Yeah, which is a shame. In hindsight, I think Ms Duck saw some of the signs, but jumped to a conclusion that seemed a bit outrageous, to me. Had she not thrown in the time travel angle & just concentrated on the fact that Molly was being prepared for Winter, it might have seen more traction & not have been discounted out of hand.
If Mab were Molly, she'd at least have gotten the Princess Bride quote.
--- End quote ---
In Lady Anatidae's defense, she proposed several theories on Mab=Molly, one of which was that Molly would become/replace Mab. By becoming the Winter Lady, Molly is now second to the throne. And if the end of the series requires Mab to die, which Duck has speculated as well, then with her fall, Molly will become the new Mab.
