I agree that it doesnt resemble Buffy or Sarah, but Moline had said that Buffy in issue 16 was his first time really doing anything with the character, which is why the likeness of her is off, but he said it would be much improved by issue 17 so I cannot wait to see what issue 17 has in store....
As for the poster, is there going to be a complete colored version by the time the arc is finished?

Hey thats a nice pic. I used to hate kennedy because she seemed like a poor replacement for the unique and original Tara, but now I'm thinking that she's pretty cool. This arc would be a great tim eto evolve her character and make her more than what she was on the show. I still think that all the potentials are taking the spotlight off the scoobies, who are the ones who really deserve the spotlight.

Oh no no no no. THAT cover is so NOT Buffy. I REALLY do not like what she is wearing or how she is standing.

It's not a cover. As the title suggests, okay, blatantly states, it's a poster. Or actually a series of four, one for each of the ToYL issues. I think they called them incentive posters or something...

I don't care if Moline's Buffy doesn't look like SMG, I think she looks fantastic. I think this poster is about contrasting Buffy's world with Fray's. Moline's style is gorgeous!

I don't care if it doesn't look EXACTLY like Sarah, but this doesn't look like Buffy, it looks like some 6 foot-1980's-street walker.

Agreed, HnR.
Georges was doing so good. He really got Sarah's likeness down. The last 2 issues were pretty amazing.
I can say the same thing for Cliff Richard's Willow. I prefer Cliff's to Georges', even though Georges' is pretty good.

Okay, so maybe this doesn't look a whole lot like Buffy in this particular poster, but based on Moline's depiction of her in "Tales of the Slayers", and what we've seen of her in the 8.16 previews, I think he'll do a great job with her. I wouldn't go so far as to say his TotS Buffy is better than Jeanty's, 'cause I love Jeanty's Buffy, but it's certainly no worse...

Personally, I really like this poster. But I have one question: Is there a full-colored version of this poster in the new Previews issue or somewhere else? We got the half of it colored last month, so I hoped…

In regards to the "Tales" version of Buffy, it does seem that Moline used a season 3 shot of SMG for a reference shot, just based on the outfit and the hair, it seems to fit....here is shot of Sarah from a shoot promoting season 3: i28.tinypic.com/2yzg76s.jpg

I have to say that Willow looks too much like Dawn. Plus Buffy is just not looking herself, but maybe everything will improve in the next few issues.

Once again... thanks for continuing to share. Other than the likeness issues, it looks fantastic. I've missed the hyper-saturated colors of Fray's world. It does look like it's gonna be a split between present day NYC and Haddyn, judging from the color of the sky, the black smoke/smog and all.

I agree with nearly all of the criticisms people have had of the artwork in this thing... but I'd rather Moline spend the most time getting the art in the actual comic pages correct than worry about a promo poster. This is probably something he did quick and fast, so I'd understand where it might not be his best work. That said, I still love it.

I really like it. I think its just his own spin on Buffy. Each artist have there own style and this is his here.
