Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Sumi,

Considering the "Scythe" was one of the main components of the "make every potential a Slayer" spell it makes sense it could also be used to reverse said spell.

I enjoyed Buffy #13 and Willow didn't seem out of character to me at all. And I was highly amused by the "shoe sale squeal".

Didn't realize Angel #6 was out. I only get my pulls every couple weeks and I had #5 in there, but no #6. Really, I'm not enjoying the series too much so far, but I can't cancel the pull until my gf catches up on them and decides if she wants to keep reading. I think there's a lot of good ideas, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. Plus, as others have said, the art leaves a lot to be desired.

But when my favorite character is a psychic fish we only see for a couple pages, that doesn't say a lot for the people involved.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

To my way of thinking, it's reasonable that magic wielding vampires with the focus/talisman of Willow's big spell from "Chosen" in hand would be able to reverse it piecemeal. I don't think that Buffy or Faith would be vulnerable to such measures though, as they were already called individually before that spell was cast .

I'm thinking the exact same thing, Matt. Though, the head vamp did mention taking things "Global" and I couldn't tell very well for the art, but it looked like they might have had a giant red-thingy like the one the poor dead ex-Slayer picked up right before she got zapped into normal-dom. So they might be trying to unempower all the Slayers (except Buffy and Faith) en masse.

Which will be disappointing if they succeed, because I think the army of Slayers angle has plenty of story possibilities yet.

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

I forgot to say thanks for the recs. Fray is indeed a great book. It reminded me a bit of something I read, I think in Heavy Metal years ago about a boy and his demon pal.

I watched Spectacular Spider-man today. MJ showed up. I was underwhelmed.

So what's the general consensus on Season 8 so far and any guesses on who the big bad is? My vote is for Caleb, any other hypotheses?

I think Caleb is the most likely big bad I've heard posited so far. Which is why I'm positive it won't turn out to be Caleb.
