Snath is a great word. I assumed that the Buffy art dept. just copied the design from the comic book. If the comic artist copied the design from the art dept. then that means that Joss had them design something for episodes that wouldn't be filmed for over a year. If that's true, I'm impressed!
Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

The amazing Jeff Mejia Mejia-ed the 'previously' for "The Gift", in TT: part I, part II, part III, part IV.

Still, silly Art Department.

We should repost those to Mejiaville! I can do that if Jeff isn't around.

Jon--can you see the original in the comic book? And does it match the one on screen? All I know is that it's a collage of a lot of weapons and I know they talked to tthe art department about it because she said the writers thought it looked shinier and newer than they expected.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Absolutely identical. DCJ posted links to the pics side by side somewhere long ago.

Yes, and yes. Someone (maybe Mejia?) linked to a side-by-side image he worked up. I'll see if I can find the link...
t edit Right - it was Daniel.

I couldn't find the side-by-side, but here's the Fray axe.

Then she was talking about the original in the comic. She said it was designed to be a lot of weapons-- I assumed it was the Art Department. My Bad. However she did say something funny. When they saw the shiny scythe one of the writers said "so it's made of some ancient metal?" and another said "Yeah, like aluminum."

The curved blade part of it is sort of a mini-scythe (sickle?) - kinda, sorta. Ah, hell. I don't care.
