Obviously basing it on nothing tangeble, it doesn't really look like Satsu. Chen herself is pretty cute, they should have had her model Satsu on herself hehe

I love Jeanty's cover - Buffy's expression is pretty funny. I kinda wish there was a background though. I'm just wondering where she's being attacked by these creatures (Scotland, Tokyo, or elsewhere?)
Chen's cover is great, as always. Not my favourite, however. I always pictured Satsu to have been very petite. (Nitpicky: what's with her left shin?) And does anybody find this cover looks a little like "The Long Way Home" trade paperback cover? It's nice.

I'm just wondering where she's being attacked by these creatures (Scotland, Tokyo, or elsewhere?) I actually like that the background's simply a bold red. Not a big fan of backgrounds... they usually just look like filler, even Chen's excellent painted covers. Chen's cover is great, as always. Not my favourite, however. I always pictured Satsu to have been very petite. (Nitpicky: what's with her left shin?) And does anybody find this cover looks a little like "The Long Way Home" trade paperback cover? It's nice. Forced-perspective? Satsu's in the foreground with Kennedy behind her, and so looks bigger. In the first place, Kennedy isn't a big girl... she was about the same height as Willow. As for the shin... those uniform pants just seem to bunch in all the wrong ways. But I guess they're better than those pink leather pants that Buffy wore in S3 (?). Was really hoping for a Chen-ized version of the outfit that Satsu wore in TLWH... I know I've said this before, but teddy bear shoulder shield. *sigh*

To build on the TLWH reference, notice how Kennedy's in a similar position to Willow?

By the way, has somebody officially or unofficially announced some sort of unifying name for issues #21 to #25?

Unless you're talking unofficially in which case I name it "The four issues told through 2 characters perspectives per issue after the depressing Willow/Buffy arc".

I was actually hoping for Scott Allie or somebody to let us know if there was some already chosen title for #21-#25 TPB: That way we could create a sub-board for these issues.

I forgot that they would need a TPB.

I forgot that they would need a TPB. I asked Scott a few weeks ago if there was an official title for these five standalones, but he said there was none chosen as yet. So we're still waiting on that one.

Steven S. DeKnight is one of my favorite Buffy/ANGEL writer. I'm so glad he got a part in this.

He's writing and directing the 5th episode apparently. I hope he and the other writers that are only doing a single issue this season come back for season nine and do some more.

I like both covers a lot, but based on the description, I'm a little confused why it's Buffy being attacked by these critters on the variant, and not Kennedy and Satsu. At first I thought, "Maybe since she's the title character, Buffy has to appear on at least one of the covers", but then I remembered that she wasn't on either of the ones for #9. :unsure: Not a huge fan of DeKnight (he's okay--nothing special), but I guess Drew Goddard can't write every issue...

My guess is that Buffy will appear in this issue, but only in a minor role, with Kennedy and Satsu solving the problem for the majority of the issue... maybe some smoochies too.
EDIT: But by just re-reading the description I'm confused too. Does Buffy also go to Japan? What's the point of her being on a cover if she isn't even in the issue?

Maybe once Kennedy arrives and Satsu and her figure out what's going on they call Buffy and tell her to hop a plane. I hope the bad guys don't teleport her again, that plot divice could get old very quickly. And I concur, Drew Goddard can do no wrong.

I'm guessing that Buffy will climb a board the Scoobie Plane and fly over to Japan to help out near the end.
