Spoilery preview of S8 issue 4.
Dude! Amy *saved* Warren before Willow killed him? WTF? Apart from all the enormous issues it raises (what about The First? How did Willow not *notice* that she wasn't the one killing him (/making him disappear)? What about Willow's whole S7 arc? What does Amy see in a misogynist pig who kills girls for fun? Etc. etc.), then there is this (which has been bothering me since Amy was first revealed): How come they didn't get out of Sunnydale before the apocalypse? Even ordinary people could feel that something bad was coming and left town, so surely a smart girl like Amy would get the hell out before the whole place collapsed?
It doesn't make sense!!!! Did working on Wonder Woman break something vital in Joss' brain? I know he never cared all that much about 'how things worked', bending the rules so he could get to the emotional part, but this is... *throws hands up*
Thank the powers above that this never made it to the screen!

That's very true. Personally I *want* to like the comics - it's like a favourite author starting a new WIP. Only so far he's failed to thrill me. Maybe my expectations were too high?
Season 8 is getting the same amount of vilification, with about the same level of justification IMO.
I think it's the opposite - people want to see something new and different. And well...
I suspect a lot of the problem is that the story is coming out at such long intervals, people are treating each comic as stand-alone instead of the next act in a continuous story.
Oh yes. There's so much time to guess and speculate that most of the 'surprises' have been worked out and that is a major weakness. I'm sure the story will hold together a lot better when read all together.
In fact, if she does I'll take up that MPreg challenge - or anything else you care to set me - myself!
Hee! That does sound good! :)
