Spike could possibly be collateral damage. I'd buy that. If he got sealed off in a hell dimension, no biggie. Not a lot different than AtF. He could have adventures there and no one on this side would be bothered about it for more than five minutes.
That I can see happening. It also fits with infintiwhale's theory below about Buffy being the one who breaks the seed. What could very well happen is Buffy seals Spike off into the hell dimension, and does away with the magic - which kills Dawn, and damages Willow. Although - according to Fray - Buffy seals herself off in the hell dimension as well. But it is possible Whedon doesn't remember doing that or has changed his mind. Personally I think killing off Spike or sealing him off in a hell dimension is lazy writing, but this whole thing screams lazy writing to me...(Shrugs)
Have read the comic now, am debating doing a review on it. Probably will, with the usual warnings and caveats. Just not sure when.
