Just so people don't need to read the long reviews of Issue 17 in the thread. Stop by here and see what the majority thought.

Just glad that it wasn't Dru. I feel the same way, why would Dru be in the future? And she really wouldn't have ANY significance to Buffy anyway...she was in the show for ONE season.

She did come back in Season Five for an ep or two though. I wasn't really too happy with the thought of it being her. I don't want to see her in Buffy EVER without Spike.
I thought the issue was great.

Is anybody terribly certain it's "Dark" Willow... Veins aside her hair was clearly red... I don't know if this is the evil, out for revenge bad ass wicca of the past as much as it's something else entirely. I think the half red/half black look must be symbolic of something as so far that's been one of the greatest keys in Willow's allignment...the colour of her hair.
Aside from that (had the Willow reveal spoiled for me) it was an alright issue, probably Whedon's weakest so far though

Some people said they couldn't recognize her and I don't know if that's what you referring to.

No, I'm saying it's very possible that this isn't necessarily Evil Willow. It's clearly Willow but she seems remorseful about what she's doing, I don't necessarily think it's as simple as Willow's gone dark again.

But I don't think it's going to end with a candy canes and gum drop fairy tale happy ending.

I am so freaking disappointed. Not that I really wanted to see Dru back, but I hate this whole centuries old Dark Willow thing. IT just makes me sad

Great! The second issue of an arc seem to always leave us more puzzled than anything, but in a way I like being driven crazy until the final two issues...keeps things exciting.
Fray's verse is definitely something I've loved for sometime and missed since it's conclusion. To see it done as well as it's been done within the parameters of Buffy's verse, is quite a treat.
Future 'Dark' Willow is quite sad in a way, definitely, but also quite interesting. I can't wait to see what it means for the present. Will Buffy even tell the others when she comes back to her own time? Present Willow also seems to know more than she's letting on. I think she feels it might've been her who orchestrated the trade - present Buffy for future demon.

I loved it!! buffys lines where my favourite from the season so far. STOP SLAYING ME! and her comments on how the english language has gone down hill. heh heh. Her introduction to fray etc, it was all great and certain lines had me laughing out loud. Centuar dawn saving xander was awesome....youhave to ride me...hahaha. so cool. So I guess we have to say goodbye to the castle base. Was neat to see gunther again and harth, im excited for this vampire army he seems to be setting up. gonna make for an amazing finale. Dark willow is pretty cool, im looking forward to more explanation as im with the people who dont think its just evil willow, as in theres more to it than that. Thats she had to harness her darker powers against her will for some purpose and is in a certain limbo between her good and bad magicks. cant wait!!

This is in my (not so) humble opinion: Dander is sick, incestous much?
Dark Willow is lame too. Dark Will is SO lame. Too cheesy.
Seriously if Xander and Dawn get together I'll be done with this comic. There's only been one good arc IMO, that being WATG.
