I think it's okay to use a scan here or a screencap there, for avatars or sigs or whatever. I don't think it's okay to post an entire comic so that people can read the whole thing without having to pay for it...

Ok, I thought it was something along those lines.

The mods of the Season 8 board haven't been on. I'm sure they will be deleted ASAP.

I hope they delete it. Putting the scans up like that might take away from sales if people read them online and neglect to purchase them. Zero sales...equals no more... I'll just wait to buy Fray. It's better to have that physical copy anyway.

Hahaha the entire forum is in jeopardy!!!! Everybody run she's gonna blow! Just chill out for a second alright. I noticed some people were talking about how they really want to read the Fray series, in order to fully comprehend and enjoy the upcoming Season 8 TOYL arc. I already had a copy in electronic form so thought I would offer these people a choice to easily have a read. Im doing it all in good faith mate. Listen, I know you are doing this in good faith. Your not trying to harm anyone, but in fact help them out. That's cool that you would go through the trouble for other fans, but the truth is that the legality of this just aint there. If I were you I would just delete that post off and move on. Lesson learned.

The girl doesn't look like Dru to me-too young and too short to be her. Dark Willow, while very interesting, would seem like deja-vu and so been-there-done-that. But, after the spell on Chosen, Willow was a goddess. Now, I'm not sure what that means, but I bet she could live forever if she wanted to. So, it's possible. Anyway, whoever it is, this arc is gonna be wicked cool!

I don't think that Kennedy meant that Willow was an actual goddess when she said that. It's like telling someone you really love/idolize/respect that they're a god for doing what they do. As for living forever... no comment.

I don't think that Kennedy meant that Willow was an actual goddess when she said that. It's like telling someone you really love/idolize/respect that they're a god for doing what they do. Yeah, exactly--just a figure of speech. Buffy once told Riley, "You're a god; you're like the god of boyfriends" after he helped move some of her stuff, and also called Giles a god after he reversed Amy's mom's spells in "The Witch". What Kennedy said was just the feminine version of that. And the mystery-woman doesn't look all that short to me. If Harth stood up from his chair/throne, I think she'd still be taller than him... which isn't saying much, 'cause he's not all that tall himself, but she looks plenty tall enough to be Dru. And too young? Dru wasn't exactly pushing 50 or anything. Juliet was in her 30s when she was playing her, so, accounting for Jeanty's slightly-cartoon-ish style (which I've completely come around on and become a pretty big fan of in the last year, BTW), I think she absolutely looks to be in the right age bracket for Dru...

I read fray online years ago and i wouldn't of ever read it unless i got it free online, so in a way it's good because it means the work gets to be seen by more people. I dont think we should be too OTT about the forum getting shut down, anyone been to www.joox.net lately. Thats extremely illegal. Yet it's been running for years now. Sorry for the OT-ness btw New covers looking smexy, but whats the 3rd one about? is that buffy? looks like a parody of something, if so whats the orginal, i feel like im missing a reference.

I still think it looks like Willow.... I dunno. I mean, right now it's way too hard to tell. And I always thought Dru would serve better in Angel since she has the connection with Spike and Angel. So it might be evil Willow, but would they really go back to that? I just think they are trying move the story forward and not backwards. Plus the idea of Dru surviving all that time definitely adds depth to the story. This arch will be the best one yet.

The third cover isn't actually a cover, but a preview of the new Buffy Tarot Card deck.

OK I'm deleting the scanned full issues of Fray because it's illegal to post full comics, I picture here and there for personal use is fine but not the whole thing.

Yes August.
I'm not sure how much I like all this merchandising. I mean, when the comics first came out, people criticized Joss for cashing in on his franchise, that they were a gimick. I personally think they are wrong.
But this? The "Conversations With Dead People" Ouija board and the Buffy Tarot deck, it seems they are finding things pretty disconnected with the story of Buffy just to make a buck.
Just my opinion.

Meh, Buffy's already spawned video games, loads of action figures (and playsets)... everything pretty gets merchandised to hell these days, why should Buffy be any different? That said, I've never even considered buying any of the tie-in merchandise... but that's just me.
It's possible the figure is Dru, I'm not ruling that out, but it's just as likely to be a new character. But Willow being around in the future, and evil, would never be revealed on a variant cover. That kind of shock is way too big for a random cover. It's not Willow.

Ohoooh, maybe it's amy.
Although that would be a buzz-kill, since i want Dawn to stomp her to death in season 8. And then for her to STAY dead.
Way too many people coming back.

Nooo killing Amy, please. Such a great character. She needs help, not death.

The way Georges has been drawing Willow, I find it hard to believe that this is supposed to be the same girl. I see Dru by Harth's side a lot easier than Willow.
