3 fanon things confirmed
Needless to say (!) I'm really happy about the preview pages. It could get me to revert to being a Spuffy.
But aside from wanting (like crazy) to speculate about Buffy's smile and Spike's not-made bed, here are three things that Dark Horse has delivered us about Spike:
1. It's now text that Spike has a more sizeable package than the other vampire. Proof? You don't boast to your ex about your package when she's in a position to make a direct comparison with your rival unless you think that comparison works for you.
2. Spike went to college. OK, this was pretty much a given -- but now it's unmistakeable.
3. He's got some sophisticated tastes underneath that bad rude exterior.
How many ways can I possibly say how happy I am that he's back at DH and being written by folks who know that there's more to Spike that womanizing and brawls?
Allie deserves a shout out on this. So here's me, shouting out.
Finally: does that scene not reek of "Trust is for old marrieds, Buffy"? I'll take it over space boinking and bestest day ever shenanigans any day of the week.

The thing with Lost and this reference is that it's more than just a line of similarity. It's a great deal of overlap, from using the bottle to the whole plan to go down a cave into the heart of
the islandwonder to deal with the 'cork'. All of that has a similarity, and that's on top of all the other references from Watchmen onward.
I'd rather a bit less shout-outing. It sometimes feels like their dangling bright objects in front of us to distract us from the fact that in concrete terms the plot doesn't bear much scrutiny.
