Hey gang! We received another email from the talented Georges Jeanty! Interior artist for Season 8! Anyway I don't think it has much new information, but check it out! He was also gracious enough to send the cover images for Issue 9, which we have seen: Hello! Aside from being the end of the Faith arc, there's nothing much new to divulge. Issue 9 comes out next week. The next two issues are written by Joss. And there is a fill in penciler on issue 10, Cliff Richards. And I'm back an issue later.
Issue 10 features the MySpace winner in a big way. Issue 11 is all about Twilight (S8's Big Bad!). Aside from that, I'm working on Issue 12 right now...and it will be worthy of an anniversary title! Cheers SlayAlive gang![/color] He also attached these two images (Issue 9's covers in HQ):   Thanks Georges! Can't wait for the anniversary issue!! Sounds good!! -CBG |

Anniversary title, huh? Well Issue 12 comes out in March, which would be Buffy's 11th Anniversary. Could it mean something?

Makes sense seeing as the shows anniversary is in March. What it means is that its such a great issue that it is worthy of being in the month of the anniversary. I think...

Anniversary title.. Georges makes me so confused. Has his recent interview been posted yet? Slightly spoilery, and very interesting.
I actually love his variant for #9 better then Chen's. And Chen's is very good.

I really liked Georges recent interview. He seems really nice. I feel bad for not liking his art so much, but it's growing on me. For me, he either nails the scene and characters appearance or he fails in a big way. I still think I prefer Paul Lee's art (it's not so cartoonish), but I've liked how Georges has drawn Faith in issue 3 (except in the opening scene) can't wait for the big surprises he was talking about. I hope Joss doesn't kill anyone!!!!

I love Georges art! I don't read a lot of comic books.. or any in fact that don't have Joss' name on the cover, but he's my favourite so far. The guy that did Fray is also pretty good, but I'm loving Georges work. He's great with detail and almost nails the characters looks.. only rarely is he off. Reading Angel ATF for example I couldn't recognize everyone, or even really see what was going on in the background. All that stuff is really important to the story in a comic book, so I'm so glad I can see all that in Georges work. Plus he doesn't drawn unrealistic women.

I agree, for the most part I am a fan of Georges' art. I just get annoyed at times when Buffy herself looks so off. But I realize they aren't striving for Sarah's likeness...but still!!  Anyway I just keep thinking that it could be really bad, we could have unrealistic proportions...or even wacky manga influenced art. So I am happy with what we have! Plus it'll only get better as the issues roll by. It's not like Georges will get worse ya know? |

Georges does some great art and I think they snagged a great artist for Buffy in him.
I agree with you Kanga, Angel is definitely alot more abstract. Plus there is alot more going on in each frame.
Can't wait to see more of Georges' art!
