Here's a list of Buffy S8 worldwide editions : FrenchSpanish (released in South America I think) ItalianGerman_________________________________________________________________ Original post :This has just been released in France ! I never believed it would happen, but here's what I found wandering in a comic store : It is basically the 1st TPB with a hardcover. Translation seems quite fine (but there are still some mistakes), but I haven't read it completely. French people here, run and buy it !

I can only make out some parts of the cover, my french is not as god as it used to be.
"The cult series is to return for a ____???____ comic season, exclusive to ___???___ design"
Can't make out the rest, if I wrong or anyone an fill in the gaps, please do.

The cult series is back with a new season eight, exclusively on comics.
The myth's creator, Joss Whedon, directs this official following to the show he's offering us. In this new story, a mysterious new threat named Twlight throws Buffy and her gang in their most spectaculary adventure...
...well, something like that.

Oh my! I’ve always bought my issues on Ebay but with the shipping costs it’s really more expensive. “C’est logique!”
Thanks for the news Ligeia. Woohoo! Happy Frenchy B/A fan here!
Whedon Fan, here is the translation for the cover: "The cult series is to return for a new eighth season, exclusively in comicbook form. The creator of the myth, Joss Whedon, as the executive producer, gives us this official continuation. In this new plot, a mysterious threat called “Twilight”, thrusts Buffy and her friends into their most spectacular adventure…”

Just bought it! It's really well-made, even if the translation is not 100% perfect. But, it remains a really good product. Passionbuffy, all the covers of the first five issues are included in it.

So nobody knew this was going to be released ? I guess I'm really lucky, since I bought it the 10th of July and I've been told at the store that it had been out for two days only !

That's awesome. I don't even speak French, but I love that it's going worldwide in other languages.

Here's a thought. What're the translation differences between the English and the French in the panels? Maybe we could figure some things out if they chose different words for the French version to invoke the same meaning?

They are also being released in Spanish now: It's made by the same editors from my Fray TPBs, so I know it will be pretty good. Season Eight is going worlwide ;D

Yeah, but from Argentina is still cheaper buying the original US editions, since the Spanish version's price is on Euros.
