Buffy #37: Miss Kitty Fantastico Twilight Strikes Back.

First of all, I want to apologize to Scott Allie for not trusting him. I admit, I was wrong thinking that he could destroy the dynamic between Buffy and Spike. #37 proves that he can write vintage Spuffy: sexual tension between characters is palpable on every panel. Thank you, Mr. Allie! The issue made me swoon, laugh, go "awww", twist my brains

I think move of the characters seem OOC in this series, but Buffy most of all. She is hard to write, though, and without Sarah playing her my reaction is 'who is this whiny little horny girl'?

To me, the biggest OOC moment was bank-robbing. I can't see Buffy doing it without a very - I mean, VERY - strong necessity, like somebody's life and death hanging in the balance. I don't think she is OOC in space-frak scenes. She was under the influence, and I think she still is.

Spike seemed pretty much Spike. I liked his reaction to Buffy talking about the creepy space sex.

Agree.

But Allie's reply in the letter column has me pretty much dropping all of this. I'll probably get the next issue and finish the 'season'. Or not.

I actually think it was ballsy to publish the letter, and his reply is a big improvement as compared with his past remarks about Spuffy. Given how much hostility he has encountered in our fandom, it's amazing that he could bring himself to talk about it.

Looking forward to Lynch's Spike comic

Oh, yes. Sooo looking forward to it!

*shrugs* I really don't know what to say here. Something like "beggars can't be choosers"?
