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!

Oh definitely. And they're not easy to draw - I've tried a few times and it's hell! Guess it's just that if it was *me* I'd not be satisfied. (Also it's just bit on the dull side, artistically.)
But I don't know if I'd outlaw retcons so much as say that they should only be used very sparingly
Well yes. I was just being a tad frustrated. Some ret-cons are perfectly great - like the way they fleshed out Spike's story in FFL, or Giles' Ripper history.
I'm just sleepy and bored and wish I could look forward to the comics instead of worrying.
