Yay for bro! Coordinates fonts would be cool. I think everyone will be disappointed with what I have to say about Never Kill unless something strikes me on a rewatch. (It's not that it's bad, but it kind of does what it says on the tin.)

I go back and forth on how positive to be. But really, if Joss pulls this off this could be a thing of beauty. Like season six this is a high wire act. But this one is even higher, and even windier. And the OTTness as part of the comic medium is what's allowing him to do it and even begin to get away with it.

I just checked out the Whedonesque thread for this issue. Yikes. It'll be nice when threads calm down a bit. And did Hellmouthguy just get banned? Anyway, Simon pointed out that the giant bugs do show up in Joss' Astonishing X-Men run (which is seriously awesome, if typically bizarre and sometimes crackilicious), as (summing it up) Cyclops' worst nightmare. Cyclops = Scott SUMMERS (Buffy) and reluctant leader uncertain about his power (Angel)? Or maybe just a reference to Joss' other comic work? Or maybe just giant bugs because giant bugs are cool.
