I finally got it today. Yay! Seems as if Twilight's mark is thralling, considering what Warren said about doing it of his own free will. That's one interpretation; the other would be that Warren's saying that he's not one of Twilight's cronies (those that have the mark burned into their flesh), and that he's not going to take any crap from Twilight. Also... Warren has no skin to burn anything into. I know it's a hazy line I'm drawing here, but I think it's the latter situation. But your proposition is possible, since we haven't seen otherwise. And Kennedy does clearly not know about the snake-lady. Bad Willow, bad. I have to change my mind and say that the vision in Anywhere but here probably was from the past... Finally!

Got mine today as well.For the opening of an arc,it was OK.
Dawn as the centaur (and the reasoning behind it explained) was a nice touch I'm curious as to who the mystery meeting was with(and why she was undercover).I do hope that it isn't something that they drag out for too long
I really didn't like the way Buffy was drawn(my only complaint about the art)
This promises to be an intresting arc,and I can't wait to read more

And I was SO sure that was in the future when I first read it. I really thought so too. That vision and the lines Willow said was just too ambigious. But atleast this made Wenxina happy.

Yay for my first post!
I can't believe no one has mentioned what I consider to be one of the funniest parts of the comics so far:
Xander: YOU'RE A FRIKKIN' CENTAUR!
Bahahahaha! Even the artwork in that frame was hilarious.
And...since I'm new...I was wondering if anyone found it odd that Twilight wants to stop all magic, and yet he not only appears to use magic (...unless he can just naturally fly...which is odd...) but allows his flunkies (ie. Warren and Amy) use magic to fight his battles...
...I always found that rather hypocritical. Sorry if this has been mentioned a billion times, as it probably has.

I'm sure it's been said of Twilight before, but you're always welcome to state your opinions!

Warren and Amy) use magic to fight his battles... ...I always found that rather hypocritical. Sorry if this has been mentioned a billion times, as it probably has. Until this last issue, I was thinking that Twilight might actually turn out to be a good guy, wanting to end magic for a greater purpose. Remember, he didn't say he wanted to end magic, he said he wanted to "bring the age of magic to a close". I interpreted that as wanting to banish all demons, vampires, and everything supernatural (as seen in "Fray"), and making the world a safer place. In that scenario, magic would simply be a tool that helped him accomplish a noble goal, and something that he'd certainly be willing to live without, if he succeeded. But now, launching that missile at the castle and trying to kill nearly a hundred girls (regardless of whether he succeeded or not), scratch the "good guy on a mission" theory, and I really haven't re-considered the idea in the days since to try to figure out where his magic-use fits in (or doesn't fit it) with his ultimate goal... BTW, welcome.

I keep trying to figure it out, but I usually get lazy and think "He's a bad guy! He don't care!"
I have bad grammar in my head.
Thank you for the welcomes. This place is freaking intimidating just coming in and seeing the serious amount of postage. I don't even know where to start!
...I'll probably just give up and fall into obscurity again. Longingly watching from afar.
*Dramatic sigh*

For some reason I found it hilarious that Warren was wearing a lab coat. Not really sure why, but it made me laugh.
Also, I liked Kennedy a lot in this issue. Want to see more of her.

Another great issue, a really good arc set up. Not, by any means, perfect but it sets up Time of Your Life quite well. The dialogue was all really classic stuff. And I too laughed at Warren wearing a labcoat.

I was newbie when last issue came out and now I actually know who people are and I have sooo much fun on this site. One of my favorites. The people here are all really nice so don't be worried. It's awesome. --------------------- P.S. I ALSO laughed at Warren wearing a lab coat. Like, does he need too?

LOL. I was the last one!! LOL. I looked at it and saw the whole "reread all the issues every day" and I was like...."well...that's odd"...then I realized it was mine. I didn't even think it would end up in an issue. I just wrote it to tell Scott what I thought...LOL.

Thank you. I'm tempted to write another letter to see if it happens again.... I do think though that a game based off of this season, especially now with Melaka in the mix, would be absolutely AWESOME! LOL.
