Buffy #6 review

[moscow_watcher]

In a nutshell:
Very good issue. Really inspired art, especially in the last scene. All the emotional nuances are written on the characters' faces.
Great dialogue. "We don't all have spaceships!" - hysterical!
Interesting, controversial content. I don't want to assess the story before reading it whole - but, so far, it's fascinating.

Hey MW! The Poet's Heart (Terry) here! Excellent review! Like you im thrilled there could be a possibility that its Spikes baby! But sad about Buffy's decision. I think some good plot could have come from giving the baby up for adoption - maybe even having Dawn &Xander raise the baby as their own. The adoption option could have tied in w/ Fray's future line - her sister looking so much like Buffy and her choice of careers mimicking Buffys career aptitude test of law enforement! Get to it fanfic'ers!

Im also thrilled w/Spikes decision to both tell Buffy he loves her and his decision to help her w/the abortion - no questions asked. That's my Spike. If he knows its his baby and he is still helping her out then he shows her once more how much he loves her bybgiving her "normal". I just hate that it would be at the expense of our Spuffy Baby.

And if its Xanders... woe be to Joss when he tells the Bander fans...

That's my Spike.

Don't you just love him? :-)

Hey, Terry - I'm glad you like my review.

I hope that something will happen that will make Buffy reconsider abortion. I vaguely remember one of the writers saying that the party in the first issue will have major consequences for the rest of the season. If the baby storyline ends here, I can't imagine what other consequences could be.

Yes, Jeanty said that.

My list of probabilities:

Heinrich the neighbor - 40%
Fairy eggs in Buffy's ear canal - 30%
Spike - 20%
Xander - 10%
