The WB (ended 2003)
So we got to see Twilight in person? Glad I wasn't the only one who assumed it was an organisation compared to a being as such. Those military douches really can't stand Buffy. I have to admit she did greatly annoy me here. Buffy has every right to be annoyed at Giles for him not being truthful with her but she came across as a spoiled bitca with the way she expressed it. Why is it so easy for her to forgive Angel/Spike who've done worse and yet she still holds Faith in comtempt? Get over it already. Yes Faith screwed you over but she's making amends and if Angel/Spike can be forgiven many times over, then isn't Faith just as deserving? The fight with Faith and Gigi was great. I loved that simple kick and Gigi went flying into the greenhouse. How cool would that have looked onscreen? Gigi really did turn into quite the cow after learning Faith duped her. Faith clearly doesn't derive pleasure from slaughter anymore. Having accidently kill Gigi you could see the remorse in her eyes. I love the idea of her and Giles teaming up to try and rehabilitate some wayward slayers. Excellent idea and here's hoping we don't have to wait several issues to see this. Roden's death was beyond cool. I sometimes forget how devious Giles can be when pushed. This was an excellent reminder.
Proper review will be up on Sunday.
Hey thats a good idea and I think we could discuss all things season 8 here yaaaaay.
Lets start with how Dawn has changed is season 8 .
Well, first, I got your PM that you had made this thread. Thanks for that. However, it's generally best to send the PM and then make the thread.
Case in point, I think this needs a little discussion. See, we already had something set up for this. Every time a new issue comes out there is a thread made to discuss that issue, just like we used to do for the episodes. There was some talk when the comic series first started about making a more general thread about it, but the concensus was that we already had one (the "Possible Continuations of the Buffyverse" thread, pinned above) and that general discussion should go there.
So, as it stands, here are the options I see:

Yeah, Buffy needs a good slap in the face, and one that will actually hurt her. I think she holds the biggest grudge on Faith, because she was basically like a sister to her, before she just completely screwed her over. But, still Angel and SPike and even Willow, who tried to kill her have done worse things.
And, I like the idea of Giles and Faith teaming up.
But, I wonder what this Twilight guy wants.
I got a question....
Who kissed Buffy in season 8?????
I've read the letter in issue 8 and the guy just says a lot of readers might have missed it and it is revealed? Okay, that is just extremely vague, why can't he just give the answer?
So, does anyone know who did and where and what the hint is?
Personally I think it is Willow because she mentioned something Buffy heard in her dream.

I just browsed through the pages but couldn't find any hint on Satsu. Cinnamon isn't even mentioned. What issue, what page, and what scene is it where she says that exact dialogue? I do have the part where she yells out Cinnamon Buns, but that's as far as it goes....

Sorry, before Buffy falls asleep there is nothing to be found that she likes Cinnamon. In issue 4 she borrows the lipgloss from Satsu and only then do we get the second hint when she says:"Cinnamon.."

| I dont really agree with your comments on buffy and her actions/response this arc. Buffy and Faith are never going to be best buds or kiss and make up, not after what theyve been through. And the difference between Faith and Angel and Spike is when they did all those bad things to buffy and her friends they were soulless and it wasnt off there own free will, thus the forgiveness. Faith purposefully chose to betray the scoobies, help bring about an apocalypse, sleep with riley in buffys body, try to kill angel and all the other decisions. Sure Buffy and Faith can reach a level where they are fighting on the same side but its unrealistic to think they can reach anything above that. |
