I'm full of tinier men!
re: Buffy
I wanted it to be Dru but at the same time I knew it couldn't be on account of how lucid she seemed. But yeah my brain bounced when I saw Willow.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

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

Latest Buffy: Dammit, I so wanted
Jilli is me. I figured it was Willow based on the reaction here (even though I was very restrained and didn't read the whitefont), but I really kept hoping it was Drusilla. I know Dark Willow is fun, but I don't want Willow to be a bad guy again.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

(Who is obviously totally my new main comics squeeze.)
Also,
"You have a forehead full of JUSTICE?!? What does that even MEAN?!?" - again, Blue Beetle

I did, in fact, use this one to demonstrate how anger has its uses and we might as well look for the gifts in our flaws. Went over a treat.
I'm totally going to have to look into the heretofore unknown to me, Blue Beetle.

There are 3 trade paperbacks out now, and it's possible that your local library has them. t /Blue Beetle pimp and fangirl

Fantastic. And my favorite library has them!
"Oh yeah, well I'm the Thing, idol of millions."
Also excellent.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Buffy: I know they've been hinting at it (and I pretty much saw it coming in this issue, I would have been much more surprised for it to be Dru ), but I'm so disappointed about the Willow reveal at the end. I know Joss likes to bring the pain, but I think Buffy has had enough pain down these lines in her life and we've already seen Dark!Willow as Big Bad once and I don't have an over-whelming urge to see it again.
I'm also sad that Giles is apparently going to die at "The Battle of Starbucks" whatever that may be, because I think he deserves more dignity than that (as amusing as the name is).
I'm kind of hoping for the ultimate result of this storyline is that the Fray future doesn't happen even though I love the Fray comics.
