Okay, this post is spoilerfree or it is as spoilerfree as I can get it. The only spoilers are for the Angel and Buffy tv series, Angel After The Fall, and the Buffy issues up to and including issue 31. There should be no spoilers outside of those. At least nothing direct.
But I think this issue is hard to discuss without bringing up spoilers. And the spoilers clearly influence how we interpret it. I know it does. I am however very curious to see how people who did not know the spoiler interpret the issue. So please, please, please don't bring up any spoilers for anything past issue 31. Don't refer to what they are.
Characters discussed are Angel, Spike, Xander, Buffy, Willow, Dawn, Tara, Warren, Amy,
Harth, DarkWillow, Andrew, Giles, Faith, and Connor for purposes of thematic and character analysis.
( A Little Emotional Turbulence can be good for the soul - spoilers only up issue 31. Analysis includes speculation, but no spoilers past 31. )
