'Time of your life' is now available as TPB. I got my copy today. _________________ Listening to you I get the music

- Seeing Fray again was awesome! Seriously: If you haven't read Fray yet: Run to the shop and buy it, you won't regret it.
- Dark Willow was a surprise.
- I liked the extra story (we'll be back after these messages), especially the drawing style.
- The best mini-series within this season so far, I think.
- Teehee to the Dawn/Xander 'riding' dialog (while escaping). I laughed hard in the train, which got me funny looks, but hey, who cares?
TPB #5 (Predators & Prey) is already ordered, I can't wait till september. _________________ Listening to you I get the music

It turned out to be october. I received Predators & prey yesterday, when I've read it I'll give my thoughts. _________________ Listening to you I get the music

- A collection of 5 separate stories (plus two short stories that were published on Dark Horse's myspace). It feels a bit like loose sand because of this, although there is an underlying current about the unpopularity of the slayers, thanks to Harmony and Twilight.
- Harmonic divergence: A bit disappointing. Harmony was never really my favourite character (although she had her moments in Angel S5).
- Swell: Smile time, anyone? Although vampy kitty is funny, the regurgitation of him was a bit ... gross. Plan B was pretty cool though.
- Predators & prey: Hmm. Nothing much happened here really, apart from Buffy adding Andrew to the family.
- Safe: Some nice Faith & Giles action, but overall? Meh, the worst episode in this collection, IMO.
- Living doll: Finally Dawn is human again. She did look kinda cute as a doll though, I loved her outfit too.
Overall conclusion: Definitely not the best part of S8. I often like one-issue story-arcs, but in a TPB I prefer longer story-arcs. The previous setups (story-arc of 4 issues, then a separate one) were perfect.
