Discussion of Buffy 12.03 - Released 8/22/18 (Dark Horse)

Oh, also, I wanted to ask... Is the side of Andrew's van a reference to something? I didn't get it

It looks like Jack the Ripper stabbing a cat.

@Mrs Gordo It foreshadows how Giles (The Ripper) will once again stab Willow (Miss Kitty Fantastico) in the back.

See, to me he looked like Mayor Humdinger and a member of his Kit-tastrophe Crew, but I thought Andrew was over the whole villain thing. 😀

Did anyone else not think Buffy and Willow planned for Heath to intervene? I know she says otherwise in the last panel but all that setup I was like “This is a setup to make Harth do something crazy”. So I saw that jump coming. Because they were literally like “OKAY WILLOW DO THAT THING HARTH KNOWS WERE GOING TO DO.” “YES BUFFY, THAT BACKUP PLAN IS GOING TO WORK SO WELL. I AM GIVING YOU ALL THE SLAYER POWERS RIGHT NOW.”
The slayer power spell twist was done much better on Chosen. I’m just saying..

It's probably supposed to be a Western Exterminator van...

Thanks for the info. Seriously, though, if killing a rat with a mallet wasn't disturbing enough, why did Andrew paint the guy ready to stab a cat with a knife? We seem to be forgetting that this guy was Warren's accomplice. He should still be on some kind of watch list.

Instead he is now the FUTURE of the Watcher’s council lol.

Is it a vampy cat maybe?

I don't understand why they need watchers in the first place, considering how horrible the original organisation was. If an organisation of non-slayers for lore-keeping, research, training and other support is really needed, they should think about coming up with a new name and start with a clean slate.
