I read it and I was almost more disturbed by Giles wearing something wiht a submarine on it than the Slayer kiling people. That was Ethan right? It was interesting to see Giles go to Faith after the discussions that happened in the Buffy/Angel thread. He knows that Buffy would never authorize the killing of a human being or even be okay with. Although if Buffy finds out about it I wonder if we are going to have an argument about souls. I like Giles being practical and ruthless in dealing with her. Also his comments to Faith about she isn't the only one with a rebellious past.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

As far as the submarine, I just chalked it up to Giles letting his rock nostalgia get the better of him. Ethan would NEVER where something with Beatles memorabilia on it (maybe the Stones).

I read and I'm enjoying the set-up. Plus Faith being back at all. Though her stabbing Giles in the arm for touching her is a little anvilly.

Jars - Faith stabbing Giles didn't feel quite right, more pre-jail Faith than post jail Faith.

I love Y: The Last Man but I'm behind. Powers is another fave of mine. Yay!

sumi - where are they I looked in every panel and didn't see anything that looked like them.

Second to last page - left panel. Yes, rather mole-like but you can tell via their clothing.
Also, I hate, hate, hate the horses in this issue -- they are not only chunky and cow like but in no way resemble the sort of equine one might expect an English lady to be riding.

sumi-- oh! somehow when I looked I never looked at that panel. Mostly my eyes keep going to Faith in that dress.

Yup, I noticed the Ten and Rose as soon as I read that page. Very amusing.
Okay well when people read the newest Y: The Last Man they have to come here and help me deal with it. I'll postpone my freakout until then.
