I can't seem to find out any new info, apart from another page which has Xander at 'Slayer Central', but you can't really read the text. Oh well I can't wait for my comic to arrive in the mail. 😀
 
that's gonna look SWEET!
although, the dress looks kinda similar to the one Willow wore in OMWF.
 
I don't know about the dress, but isn't that Giles' line from 2 to go in the word balloon? "I'd like to test that theory."

WHAT'S NEW WITH BUFFY?
Updated 2/28/2007

Season Eight #1 is off to the printer, on sale in a matter of weeks, and we're doing everything we can to get the word out there beyond the comics market, to bring in all the Buffy fans who were left wanting more at the end of Season Seven. I'm writing this quick update from a New York City hotel room the weekend before the big New York convention, where we're going to be doing one last-ditch effort to get the word out before the book hits the street.

Meanwhile, though, Joss and the team are working way ahead. He's already turned in the first five issues' worth of scripts, which puts him off the hook until his next arc--which we'll be announcing in a few months--and that story should make hardcore Joss fans lose their minds. Georges has his hands full, wrapping up some final corrections on issue #3, working on the variant covers for #2 and #3, and starting up issue #4 with Joss now.

We've just committed Paul Lee to draw issue #5, giving Georges an issue off before his arc with Brian K. Vaughan. Paul's throwing pages back and forth via email with Joss, working out some subtleties in this stand-alone issue, which Joss says is very personally important to him. Paul's also working on a variant cover for that, while Jo Chen just this minute showed me pencils for her #5 cover, which she'll be wrapping up around the convention this weekend. Last I heard from Brian Vaughan, he was deep into his first issue (that'd be #6, for those without a scorecard), and pushing up against the page count of twenty-two--this Faith story he's working on promises to be packed tight. Working with Joss on Buffy is pretty damn exciting, but getting to work with Brian for the first time smells like napalm in the morning. Like victory.

After Brian's four-issue arc, we're gearing up to bring in one of the most popular show writers, Drew Goddard. His story involves one of the most popular villains from the TV show, with a focus on Xander, and ... wait for it ... him and the other Scoobies stomping around Tokyo! Dawn should feel right at home.

We've got a letters column in Buffy, so make damn sure to write in to let us know what you think when, in just a couple weeks, you get your greedy little hands on Buffy: The Long Way Home Part 1.
 
[Whedonesque] (SPOILER) Fractal Matter reviews Buffy #1.

Probably the most spoiler laden review to date. In related news, Dark Horse has launched a very cool new Buffy contest.

Joss Whedon - The L.A. Times interview

Haven't read this yet, but they apparently talk about why season 8 came to be, and also what happened to the ideas about those TV movies...

I don't think there are that many spoilers, but definitely some, so I thought it best to place it in this thread.

Anyhow, check it out: Link

Yet another one. A Wizard interview with Joss and co. about the comic but also about their favourite BtVS arcs etc.

A fun read 🙂

Awesome, I can't wait to see Willow and Amy go at it, that will be awesome! Although is there anything their not gonna reveal before it comes out? Bloody hell I think I've seen like half the first issue!

Lots and Lots of spoilers.

Thanks for finding that. Although I'm not sure if I want to read it now because it's getting mailed to me next week 😀 😀 Think I'm already too spoiled.
 
i wanna know who Subject 2 is...it's really driving me crazy!
 
Yeah subject two is something I wanna know as well. Could it be a returning character or someone new? Amy calls him her boyfriend right?

I can't belive I read the spoilers. I feel so cheap.... 🙁
 
Argh. Gonna hear about the entire saga without cracking open a comic. Can't...stop...reading...

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #4

Written by Joss Whedon, penciled by Georges Jeanty, inked by Andy Owens, colored by Dave Stewart, cover by Jo Chen (a surprisingly crappy, pixelated version of the cover).

Buffy's back in action, thanks to a kiss of true love, but Willow's another story entirely -- their capture of Amy the witch opened up a magical trap door, and now the Wiccan is in the belly of the beast. To make matters worse, she's at the mercy of someone truly bent on revenge, and he's been waiting for this for a long time. The conclusion to Season Eight's first arc.
