I removed (II) from the issue titles. I assume the II represents Volume, but that is not needed. StarIV 20:35, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Warren wasn't saved from dying of shock, and Amy brought him back from the dead. Or else the First could have never used his appearance in the seventh season. Please someone edit this part if you agree.
Is it actually volume 2 of Buffy on Dark Horse or is it rather a new series altogether, as "SEASON EIGHT" is written as part of the title on the left margin...~ Zythe Talk to me! 20:17, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Do we truly need an article about a single storyarc in a recently debuted comics series, when we have no idea as yet how much of an impact this storyline will make on the Buffyverse or on the comics world? It seems extraneous, especially since there is already an article for the series as a whole. - Pennyforth 20:00, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Welcome to the Hellmouth, Smile Time, Normal Again... The Long Way Home (Buffy comic). Episode articles, all of them. There are also many articles all about individual Superman, X-Men and Batman arcs. Problem - where? ~ Zythe Talk to me! 11:18, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Just random, doubt it would go in the article. That one girl's earring (the one with the feather earring... do they say her name?) keeps jumping around. In part one (pages 6 & 7 I think) it isn't there in one frame, then there in another, in the right ear. In Part two it switches to the left ear while they're talking on the roof, then back to right in the last panel of the same page and whilst fighting the undead.
(I have the first edition of both, by the way, in case it's incongruent in later ones.) Torca 06:44, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
I've added this to the section on writing and artwork I've created; the episode pages have sections on production errors, so why not the comics? Jeff-El 18:31, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I've been soldiering on (pretty much solo) trying to piece together a functional wikiquote for the series, but I've only very basic command of the programming language, and am having trouble linking this page to its appropriate section of the quote page, in the same manner as they are in the TV series' respective page. If anyone on here can help rectify this, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks, Nalvage, LrdChaos and Aphaia for helping on the page, but it's still got a long way to go on it and I can't do it alone. If no-one else is able or willing to add, clean up or program the page, I think it should either be scrapped or merged. That said, I think merging it with the show would be lazy and nto necessarily improve either article.
What to do?
I'm not going to change anything for now, but I really don't think General Voll is very comparable to William Stryker of the X-Men. In the comics, Stryker is a preacher, not a soldier as depicted in the movie. If Stryker had appeared in the first X-Men film, which Joss wrote a draft of, I would maybe think it should stay; as it is, though, I think it's a stretch to compare the two characters. Jeff-El 01:18, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
That would be better, but unless there's a source that states the two characters are actually connected in some way, there's really no benefit to making the comparison. Jeff-El 14:37, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
Image:Longwayhome4.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The fair use of
image:Longwaycover03.jpg in this article is questionable. Listed below is/are the reason(s) for this:
• Minimal use: As few non-free content uses as possible are to be included in each article and in Wikipedia as a whole.
Full policy
• Photo galleries: Fair use images may never be included as part of a photo gallery.
Full guideline
This image is being cited since it's the first one to come up due to image maintenance, but it serves as a good place to start.
8 spot images would normally push the limits of minimal fair use of image in a plot summary section. More so when they are just the covers showing "who's here" and not interior panels that illustrate a hard to describe plot point. This type of usage is simply decoration.
There is also the problem that, even though they are disjointed, using all 8 covers from the four issues creates a de facto cover gallery.
If the above concern(s) can be addressed in light of the relevant policies and/or guidelines, the image use can be retained. If not, the image needs to be removed from the article.
The issue with Longwaycover03.jpg has been addressed.

This article has the most detailed plot/story description I have ever seen in any article about a fiction (movie, TV series episode, comic book arc, novel, etc). it's ridiculous. You don't even need to read the book after. Can't someone edit it down? 96.236.6.144 ( talk) 00:05, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 2 external links on The Long Way Home (Buffy comic). Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than
regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors
