You'll have to wait just a little bit though!

Publication Date: July 10, 2012
Series creator Joss Whedon brought Buffy the Vampire Slayer back to life with this comics-only follow-up to Season 7 of the television show. This hardcover edition contains the first two arcs of the series, plus two one-shots, written by Joss Whedon and Brian K. Vaughan (Y: The Last Man, Runaways), with art by the acclaimed Georges Jeanty! After the destruction of the Hellmouth, the Slayers-newly legion-have gotten organized, but it's not long before new and old enemies begin popping up. Buffy, Xander, Willow, and a very different Dawn are introduced to the season's big bad, Twilight, and are only beginning to understand the incredible reach of this mysterious threat. Meanwhile, rebel Slayer Faith teams up with Giles to handle a menace on the other side of the Atlantic. It's a dirty job, and Faith is just the girl to do it!
[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Buffy-Vampire-Slayer-Season-Whedon/dp/1595828885"]Amazon.com: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8 Volume 1 (9781595828880): Joss Whedon, Brian K Vaughan, Georges Jeanty, Paul Lee, Cliff Richards, Andy Owens, Dave Stewart, Michelle Madsen: Books[/ame]

It's listed at $29.99. I'm not seeing a cover when I open the link, are you guys? I wonder if they'll choose a different cover for it.
 
Nope no cover. I'm guessing they don't have one yet. Long time before it's released. A good buy for those who want but hasn't bought the comics yet. Or collectors.
 
IIRC, Scott Allie said they're not doing a single hardcover for Season 8, so if this is real it will be a long time before it comes out

No, this is not a single hardcover, it supposedly will contain the 1st 2 arcs of season 8 (plus extra stuff I'm guessing).
 
Yeah, it will be divided in 4 different hardcovers according to a fan on another board who heard it from Jeanty(so not the best source).

[MENTION=5973]Black Eye Guy[/MENTION] , can I link to a Buffy blog? Because that blog has a exclusive Buffy image of a secret something, that might be a piece of this cover.

Yeah, as long as it's not just promoting your own buffy message boards, it's cool!

mad awesome cover
This is a no buy for me, since I would only get new sketch material. I was really hoping form something extra "extras" you know=
 
I have yet to read a single comic of season 8 and would defiantly like to approach season 8 with this; all of em!! Is it still listed as $119. I guess I've never been a comic person.. I know they go for cheaper, seperate, on ebay.. but Ill wait til I get a 50% off or something- looks like it will still be another few years til I read this, haha

199? Who charged that? That's insane. And if you have a ipad, ihone or ipod touch, you could try buying and reading them digitally.
Love the cover.

On Amazon it's listed as $29.99.

Ah, I was refering to the whole collection of comics (season 8 as a whole). I probably wasnt clear in my post up there, sorry.

The whole collection (#1-40) came out today, now that im looking at it. I can't post a link because Im not 15 posts into the fourms yet 😛 but I assure you its on Amazon at $119.
