That is great work by Jo Chen. Each cover just gets better and better ever issue.
#6, huh? This is going to be a long wait.

What if THIS is #5? I don't see anywhere saying it's officially #6...hmm... By the way, I'm a little offended by Scott Aliie's insult to people who think that Robin shouldn't have won (by the way I haven't said ANYTHING until now, as a response to Scott insulting us). People are allowed to have their opinions and disagree with things. Just because people don't think that one specific mentally ill person shouldn't have won a contest doesn't mean that those people are discriminatory against all mentally ill people, and that those people are bad people in any way, shape or form. Personally, I think she won because it was a sob story. If I, and most of us, had known that's what it took to win...I'm sure we could all come up with some really f*cked up, sad stuff that's happened to us in our lives. I personally didn't want to do that to Joss. I could have told him crap that would have made him cry, I'm sure all of us could. But that wouldn't feel fair, to me. I don't like putting my issues out there, like "Oh, pity me, I've had such a hard life, I deserve something". I just wanted to tell Joss about what Buffy did for me, and I listed some ways in how it made my life better (making it easier to come out to my mother). If Robin's husband would have done THAT...just told about what Buffy did for her, and didn't make the basis of the essay that she's mentally ill? Then I'd be much less opposed to her winning. I also find it odd that to help his wife, Robin's husband puts up posters of Buffy and Angel to "give her focus". I don't know. The whole story just sounds fishy to me. Her finding a fantasy icon in Drusilla...mmm okay. And I'm not belittling Robin or her illness, but...come on. I mean, really. I went to a school for teens with mental illnesses (depression, anxiety, emotional disorders, etc). I know my shit, regarding that realm. It just seems unfair to me, like nobody else stood a chance because we didn't tell Joss about OUR disorders and disabilities (probably just about everyone here has at least one). I don't know, I'm just really offended. That Scott Aliie somehow thinks that people who disagree with the decision are lesser than him. But oh well. What's done is done, and I still love Joss and he's still my hero. No, I read your response actually. Um, I kinda disagree with it a bit, but I read it. I didn't really see Scott Allie's letter as going off on people who didn't agree with the decision to pick Robin's story. I saw it more as him defending the fact that they did pick it. No offense or anything. I just see it in a completely different way that you do. If Buffy made it easier for you to deal with your own problems, maybe that's the story you should have written. If you had, and you had won, I'm sure you wouldn't be complaining about winning over a woe-is-me story.

The cover is amazing and looks exactly like Eliza. I can't wait to own this issue.
