It has absolutely no dynamic flow and is often hard to flow in the action scenes. So Paul Lee's art came as welcome relief to me. In fact, this was my favorite issue so far. It wasn't as continuity-clogged as the first four. Maybe this puts me in the minority, but I have been absolutely hating Georges Jeanty’s art.

The craft of "Buffy" was nearly always above average, but it was the spirit of the show that made it special. This is the first issue of Season 8 that showed that spirit in spades. I just adore it.

Musta been a few million fans, and each should have a copy of this book. “the end of the story is both touching and a perfect summation of what the Buffy-verse has always been about.”
