Dean Collins is a character in W.I.T.C.H.. He is a history teacher at school who dates Will's mother, Susan. Dean was believed to be a monster from Meridian and was attacked by the Guardians. He is also the head of the school newspaper and owns a lizard called Mr. Scales. In the second season, he once again has a relationship with Susan, which really makes Will mad but when Collins saves Susan from death due to Shagon, Will gains trust in him and welcomes him to the family. In the comics, his relationship with Susan is much more serious, they actually getting married in the later part of the series. Susan also confronts him about Matt, wanting to know his "criminal record", as she puts it.

She stays upset about this until "M is for Mercy", when she sees Mr. Collins saving her mother's life while in her guardian form. She forgives him and invites him over for dinner.
Trivia[]
- Mr. Collins' name is actually a pun. A "Dean" is a person with authority in a specific academic field, or an area of concern, or both. So, Professor Collins would be the Dean of History.
