Willow just got it right. My expectations on Willow - Wonderland were high, but this series has turned out to be an uninteresting filler with inconsistent art and a predictable-as-hell story IMO. All this trip is so déjà-vu and uneven.
Sure, there were some interesting moments in the first two issues, but in this one, only the two last pages got me barely interested.
The dialogue was good in the first two issues. Not anymore. The pop-culture references feel forced and not funny at all, especially that "sopranos finale was better" line. As for the "psychoanalysis talk" thing with the water the octopus, Aluwyn and all that stuff, I thought it was just boring.
So I'd say this series is not entertaining at all. When the only moments that get me interested are not related to Willow and her witchy scoobies but to Buffy/Angel & Faith, I think there is some kind of a major problem in the story.

I'll keep it brief.I liked the issue although thought it was a little slower than issues 1-2.The end of the issue does seems to be setting up some intersting stuff and i do see some parallels with Twilight as well as nods to Willow's magical addiction from season 6.

Btw, in this last vision Dawn is totally having a proper face, same as Xander, Buffy and Angel.

Christos Gage confirmed in a twit that it was Dawn and Angel.

Anyway...two quasi Tara references (holding hands to be more powerful and "Mr Octopus Fantastico").
Does anyone else have trouble imagining Allyson Hannigan's voice saying the dialogue in the comic?

I'm tunnel-visioned by the "we will continue to support the Fray universe." I can only see all the current storylines as converging on keeping magic out of Buffyearth and turning Willow into an immortal, limited, and mean-spirited GrayWillow. Imean, I'ven't liked much in the Buffyverse for a long time, but this is the first time I'm feeling like Joss is actually turning against his audience, Burt Reynolds in Stroker Ace fashion.

But I didn't hate getting to see Willow relax and have fun for a bit.
