The whole Xanadu/Jason/Etrigan triangle is definitely one of the more interesting parts of this book--and this issue does a good job at explaining things while still keeping a little grey in there--what if it really is how Etrigan described it? What if they're both telling the truth to a certain degree?

it would be interesting if both stories had SOME truth, though i don't see Xanadu saying "YOu saved me! I'm so impressed!"

True--I'm thinking in the way that she loves Jason for being there for her when she was growing up, and for being kind, courageous hero; and she loves the Demon, this dangerous and powerful force of nature that awakens this carnal, arcane side of her.

Yeah, it wasn't exactly a very believable alternative, which does weaken the story.
