Spanish Inquisition

Post by David Argall »

As a technical point, the Inquisition had very little to do with hunting witches. That was a Protestant activity. The Inquisition was into chasing Jews and heretics.

"The Basque witch trials of the 17th century represent the most ambitious attempt at rooting out witchcraft ever undertaken by the Spanish Inquisition."
As taken from Wikipedia: Link

Besides, it's actually a common trope that the Spanish Inquisition looked for witches, whether or not they actually did. It's a recurring joke in multiple (mostly European-based) pieces of comedy I've watched and read, so it should stand that it should also be taken as seriously in the comic as well. That is, not at all. :)
