It had some clever moments for sure, but the way I see it, the "Spike's scales are the cure" bit just sort of popped up out of nowhere and was completely sorted out in the space of a single page. Compare that with, say, Friends Forever issue 21 where finding the cure took half the story and also made some amount of practical sense. Not to say it should have taken so long, but for me it was just too hasty and unexplained to keep me engaged in the story.
