Don Draper: There is no big lie, there is no system. The universe is indifferent.
Joan Holloway: This isn't China, there is no money in virginity.

A pretty good comic.
My favorite part of all comics was the part with Lorne. But the Connor and Spike parts weren't as outstanding.

Still, probably my third favorite so far.

Good to see some background about how things got from the finale episode to the first comic. I thought it was such a random and funny start with the fish's background. 
Spike's story was pretty good. And it had some really good moments, like having Spike mention how he survived two huge end of the world fights (something that I had thought about, but it's good to see it mentioned), and seeing him find "Fred" only to be disappointed by Illyria later on. Overall it didn't really do too much so far, but it was an interesting addition anyway.
Connor's story was the same, not doing too much, but being an interesting addition. I liked his thought boxes in it, and thought it was nice seeing him get all his memories back. And it even addressed (in a sense) something that kind of bugged me in season 4: Connor sleeping with Cordelia.
Lorne's story was my favorite out of the three. I loved the style of the art and writing, presenting a very "innocent" kind of story. It had a nice kind of recap of Lorne's (minor) season 5 story, showed how he got from that very dark place in the finale to the more light-hearted place he is in these comics, and it just really suited his character well. I just loved it.
Overall, it was great, but the fact that both the Spike and Connor stories didn't really do much hurt the overall quality of the comic. I give it 4 stars.

Hurley (listening to a radio transmission): You hear how clear that is? That's gotta be close, right?
Sayid: Radio waves at this frequency bounce off the ionosphere. They can travel thousands of miles. It could be coming from anywhere.
Hurley: Or any time... Just kidding, dude.
Ben: I was told a lot of things, too, that I was chosen, that I was special. I end up with a tumor on my spine and my daughter's blood all over my hands.
Locke: I'm sorry those things happened to you, Ben.
Ben: Those things had to happen to me. That was my destiny. But you'll understand soon enough that there are consequences to being chosen, because destiny, John, is a fickle bitch.
Sayid (about Ben): Forgive me, but the day I start trusting him is the day I would've sold my soul.
