I called my comic shop today and asked them to put a copy of this issue aside for me. I'll pick it up within the next few days. Still haven't read any spoilers or seen any previews! So pleased with myself. I can't wait to get this!

Oh and for those of you that are still confused about the whole Warren- alive thing, Joss replies in the Slay The Critic section that he had forgot about the First taking his form and that it was an honest mistake. TBH I think he should have taken all of this into consideration befoe putting pen to paper.

I really enjoyed this issue a lot. The Faith and Giles moments are great, very awkward and funny. I also really felt bad for Faith, stabbing the stake through the wall when she got home, also there being more marks, she doesn't have anyone. I already loathe Lady Genevieve, she's such a bitch. Kidnapping Slayers and hunting the "foxes" that escaped. Also what does she want and what does this have to do with Twilight? And what's with the thing Buffy has been dreaming about? "The Queen is dead".... "Long live the Queen." Who could the Queen be? The ending is great aswell. Brian K. Vaughan is great, he got Faith and Giles down perfectly. I did enjoy Georges art, but Faith did look a little weird at times, like when she stabs Giles.
So I did really like this issue. There are a lot of questions to be answered. Can't wait till October 3rd!

I'm beginning to think that this handsome warlock person is the guy in issue with the floating boots. I mean he clearly has the power to float.

I just read this on someone else's review and I think it makes perfect sense! Also, after skimming through the issue again, GiGi says that she's been having terrible dreams, like Buffy. Could there be some kind of connection?

Maybe maybe. I like that Twilight has continued in this arc as it gives the series more scope.

Oh man, this issue is my favorite yet. I am digging the intro to a NEW evil character, in Genevive and her magic-warlock guy. I am starting to really dislike her after only a few pages!!
It seems as though she might be stronger than the "average" slayer....?? She pummeled the one that escaped, and exclaimed her strength.
Yes, she is evil but I feel that she is merely a pawn in the large scheme of things. Like she's being manipulated as well.
I love the Buffy/Xander exchange...to me it feels like there's something more there. Like an tension between them. I like how Twilight is still this mysterious thing surrounding everything. And it makes me scared that Buffy is scared!
After the events in Season 7, it seemed like Buffy could take anything...be fearless. But now it seems as if she is doubting herself again. And uneasy about how things are, etc.

Can someone post a link for Slay The Critic? I've never heard of it before. I didn't even think of The First turning into Warren! Maybe he was slightly dead when Willow flayed him?
