This issue was OKAY, not great and not bad. Because of the cover I was expecting to see more than one glimpse of Illyria's true form in this issue. I'm also wondering how Illyria was able to change back, becuase Gunn killed its human shell? I really wish they would bring back Fred cuz to say that her soul is gone from the complete universe, I mean, that doesn't sound like real Buffyverse talk. This issue had a huge moment for Illyria and I would have liked to see more with her and Wesley. In a tv episode, they would have shoed more conversation between the two but i guess there is a different between a comic book and a one hour episode. The art was okay, I do agree how there was a lot of pink and reds. Maybe some darker colours would have set a different mood. I guess the next cover with the Angel guys charging forward with all the octupus tentacles must be them charging towards Illyria?

Okay, I'm totally confused after reading this issue. Was Illyria actually transforming into Fred in the previous issues?

Okay, I'm totally confused after reading this issue. Was Illyria actually transforming into Fred in the previous issues? This issue (along with Spike: After the Fall #4) confirmed that Illyria has just been turning into Fred all along and that Fred is truly dead. Illyria wants Wesley to feel for her like he did for Fred, so she has been trying to make herself more like Fred (by turning into her and talking like her).
