But if they mean to re-write Fray's storyline whats the point in creating its original version?I mean sure its a heck of a story and it somehow sets a plotline for Buffy whose events would eventually lead to the end of magic. It would be extremelly unlikely imho for whedon to say " what the heck the age of magic wont end with Buffy, the slayers will continue to grow and blah blah blah".

I hope that's exactly what happens. Or at least make it look like it might happen. I think it'd be silly not to and have Season eight and night of Buffy work up to this big battle where we already know the outcome - very anti-climatic.

We really don't know much about the outcome at all, just that magic is erased from the earth (which it obviously isn't entirely, looking at Fray, so that's an interesting tidbit right there). We don't know if Buffy dies or not, or really what happens at all in the end. What exactly does she do to banish magic? Does Willow play some part in it, or will she even be alive at that point. There are just so many possibilities about what could happen, that I think it is a very exciting concept and I would love to see it play out.

Twilight's whole purpose is to get rid of all magicks from the earth, maybe Buffy will realize this isnt such a bad thing and give everyone on earth a normal life. Or maybe Twilight is someone from the future that knows about this and knows that the only way to end magick is through Buffy so thats why he hasnt just killed her yet. He did seem to know alot about her. Maybe it's Harth. I highly doubt it but he knows all the slayer memories and heritage and moves. Maybe fray comes looking for whoever it is and Buffy and her have different viewpoints on ending magick

Issue Four. And if you look at cover 11. I can only find Issue 15 where it was silver. Oh, I meant the scythe part, not the handle

ok, so I know a few of you are poo pooing the 2 scythes deal but maybe there are 2 in Fray's time. How about in order to save the slayer power Willow spilts the sythe in 2 one red, one silver so when the 2 are reunited the slayers can be reactivated in the future.
One BIG floor in Buffys S7 plan. When girls are born will they get the slayer power at birth?? Say if you have 200 years worth of slayers in one generation then there's always a chance you can run out (JUST LIKE OVER FISHING) I think whatever Buffy does, if she does indeed end magic it will be because she has no choice.

I like the idea that it could be Harth that would be interesting but i think Joss would save him for Fray to kill in her storyline in Fray.
I think Willow may end up dead before the end of Buffy. Kinda morbid but true. But like Buffy said in issue 4 when she said she likes to think part of her is in her and junk well what if that was the case if Willow dies and the end of magic is coming. Buffy could do it on her own and junk. But I'm kinda moving off the idea that it will be Twilight who will end magic and junk because they said there will be a season 9 so unless he can out live most villains on Buffy and not get killed then maybe we wont see Buffy end magic.

I doubt Twilight would be Harth. Twilight is very Angel/Riley-esque in terms of size. Harth is tiny and scrawny.
But I would really like to see Harth in this upcoming arc. Some sort of sub-plot or something. OH! And Erin, I really liked her. Gunther too. Every Fray character, still living, needs to make at least one appearence.

I think the coolest part of this spoiler from the cover is the fact that the rules change and are expanded in the buffyverse. Buffy travels into the future to fight with Fray. Plus she was transported in 'no future for you' to fight with faith.
If the limits of time and space are being pushed, what does this mean for the possible identity of twilight? one thought that occurred to me was twilight is someone from the future sent back to stop buffy...a future xander, future giles, future angel even (tho prolly difficult considering the idw rights)

When my aunt saw Twilight she thought it looked a little like how she'd imagined comic Xander to look. Maybe Xander? I really love this theory.

This is a great theory. But wow... what kind of stuff would have to happen to make Xander go from uber best friend to the guy who kicks Buffy's ass with no apologies?

YES!!! Out of all the Slayers, Fray was the one who I could relate to dead on next to Faith! I have something to look forward to this July besides bratty kids, bonfires, gross char broiled animal flesh and mesquitos!!!

I like the theory of someone coming back from the future to stop Buffy. Maybe one of her close friends now from the future trying to stop her going down a bad path...

Wouldn't it be interesting if Twilight was a descendant of Buffy? Meaning she had kids. That's not gonna be the twist, but I just thought that would be interesting...Buffy being a mom. oh my goddess thats brilliant, what if Buffy had a son that she completely neglects due to her slaying so he resents her and kicks her ass. The only problem with one of her friend being twilight is he gave her a good beating in issue 11 and i cant see xander doing that to stop her. if it wre him or giles tey would try to stop her, but i doubt they could ever hurt her

It isnt Xander if you look closely at Jeanty's drawings then you will notice that Xander's and Twilight's jaws and jawlines are completely different. Now when it comes to Twilight being buffy's son or something he could be a very spoiled brat to try and eliminate all magic just cos him mom worked overtime. Also i seem to believe that Buffy will die , not Willow , if we pay a good notice at the fact that B has already died twice then a third blow might be final?And with her the Age of Magic shall pass? Now when it comes to Slayers, they are born with that power, but what i dont know is if one of the 1800 slayers dies will another one be called in her place?Or if a child is born with the power will they recruit it creating some sort of an X-Men or Jedi Academy?

Yes, but FUTURE Xander could look very different.
