"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Any other theories?

I kind of figured it was whoever was wearing the billowy coat that we only saw from the back, not sure if that was supposed to be Angel or Spike. I also figured that Willow knew he was there and that is why she said what she did.

Check out what Buffy says immediately upon waking, and see if it rings any bells with something mentioned about another character.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I went back and looked at #3 again and can only conclude that it might have been Xander, but it's really not clear at all. Any other theories?

Buffy yells "Cinnamon buns!" when she wakes up, and then later that issue (or maybe in the next issue) she borrows lip balm from one of the other Slayers, and when she uses it, she says, "Cinnamon..."

We're supposed to assume that the kiss-er is that Slayer.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Oh, you guys are totally right. I'd forgotten about the cinnamon thing.

It's tempting...

Comic books are dead.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

As much as I prefer the graphic novel format (indeed the only actual comic books I've ever bought were Freak Brothers, Kevin Smith's Spider-Man Black Cat, Serenity and Buffy Season 8) this news makes me sad.
