Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
And if so, WTF is going on there? (With Willow, I mean.)
Did you notice, Steph, that when Willow was unconscious her vision of Saga Vasuki tells her she couldn't hide from "what you are, what's to come?" Very reminiscent of Buffy's dream in Restless with Tara telling her nearly the same thing. I don't know if it's an accidental echo or if it's Ultimate Drew's love for continuity pulling something out from long ago, just to say he did it. And if he did pull it out, why? Is there some connection between Willow and Buffy (having similar dreams) or Saga Vasuki and Tara (being the avatar for these messages)?
Totally loved this issue, despite the quibbles over Mecha!Dawn and poor artwork. Drew knows how to push all my buttons with the funny and the let's kill all our favorite characters. He's learned well from the masters.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I don't remember what happened to Warren . Could he have built a mecha-Dawn ?

The last we saw, he had disappeared with Amy. Good call.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Uh, not that I don't believe you, but are you sure the first one is really for Buffy? Maybe the web site got it wrong. It doesn't look related at all. Like, AT ALL.
It's for Buffy, Steph. It's s Dawn who's the centaur. It says she's gone through more bizarre changes.
Oy.
Note to ita: I tried to use the quick-edit and futzed it up. Is that only at the beginning of a line? Because I tried to do it in the middle and hence the screw up. I tend to want to err on the side of caution and only use the html code if it means I don't have to worry about spoiling someone accidentally.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Yup. You do a carriage return so that the s and your whitefonty text start off on their own line, then another return to resume blackfont.

Thanks, brenda. I've only been on this board for what, five years or so. I'll figure it out eventually.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
It's for Buffy, Steph. It's Dawn who's the centaur. It says she's gone through more bizarre changes.
The HELL? Okay, the whole giant thing was weird at first, but then I came around, and even started finding it workable within the storyline. But -- now a centaur?!? So, is she a GIANT centaur?
Goodness, I'll have to be sure to ask for the other cover.

I don't see the resemblance. And I'm still a little annoyed they have yet to define thricewise .

Why do I have the feeling that twenty issues down the line we'll see a jackalope in a tutu shouting "Get out! Get Out! GET OUT!!!" at Buffy ?
