To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I think the giant-size Astounishing that comes out on Thursday is Joss' last issue before Warren Ellis takes over.
Indeed it is. And I'm shocked to see no chatter about the final fate of Kitty Pryde. Because really? What was the point of bringing her back if you're just going to launch her into space inside a giant pallic symbol and walk away?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Victor, I was just saying that to my co-worker earlier. (Well, mostly what I said was, "Of *course* that's what happened; it's goddamned Joss Whedon.")

Haven't managed to get to it yet. Unfortunately, I just read the white font. Um...

Joss's caprice's usually make at least a LITTLE sense to me. This one didn't. At all. Not that I minded Kitty's save of the planet, but it seems such an ignoble end for a character he obviously so delighted in. Not that the door's not open for her to come back if some other writer was so inclined -- I mean, she's been deader before -- but still. I finsihed that and went, "Huh?"

Victor, I finished it and was taken aback because of the gazillion pages at the end with the covers; when I got to the end, it looked like there were more pages of story, and SURELY that couldn't be the end!

Maybe he's leaving Ellis something to work on? Lord knows they have the mutual fanboy thing going.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
eep! Careful if you look up Buffy Season 8 in Wikipedia. There's spoilers for the next three issues.
