While in Ghana I commissioned local artists to make a Buffy poster. They did not disappoint. (infosec.pub)

Ghana is known for its hand-painted movie posters. They used to paint them for films in the cinema, and the "imaginings" of the artists sort of developed into its own world. There's apparently a place in Chicago that has a whole gallery of them.

The poster is like 4 feet tal, painted on flour sacks. I sent the artist images of individual main characters over Whatsapp, he did the rest.

They even included Amy! But they seem to have painted Sarah's stand in or stunt double instead.

Oh, I asked them to include Amy. I thought they would just put a small rat at the bottom, but I think when I explained "This is an evil witch that was turned into a rat" they decided to give her lightning eyes and make her huge.

Evil! Such slander.

Hey, I didn't make sure Amy was on there because she's Little Miss Sunshine Rainbow Unicorn Farts. Amy is a badass.

But

spoiler

if she's going to keep skinless Warren alive to let him take his misogyny plans to the end game and ruin Amy's life in the process,

I don't have to love it.

I thought that was Anya in a bunny suit.

Correct, Anya is in the bunny suit, Amy is the rat, as she spent more episodes as a rat than not.

Edit - it's literally this picture from the wiki.

As I recall, there's one episode where Willow is doing hard core magic and Amy reverts to human for thirty seconds, then returns to rat form.

For those who may be unfamiliar, there was a canon continuation of the show in comic book form.
