They released the cover for #34? This I gotta see. Do you have a link? I just did a search and saw the picture. Here's the link.
I deleted the link because I'm not sure if it's legit. Nevertheless...it's a shocker all right. I'm beginning to see the rumblings of a Buffy vs Willow war already. If Twilight is who I think this is...according to that image...there's no way Buffy is going to betray him for the Slayer line. I sense a big betrayal by Buffy against Willow. No wonder Willow turns Dark again. I'm feeling sorry for poor Willow just about now. .

If Twilight really is Angel, then I'm happy my original random speculation originally wasn't just a whole bunch of insanity.
It's makes sense in a way to be honest. Especially when Twilight says "I know that move". Angel was the only one in the room with Buffy other than Caleb when she killed him. It would also explain his wardrobe, depending on if he's still a vampire or not. Unless I've missed something, his outfit doesn't show any skin whatsoever, which would allow him to be out in daylight. (As Season 8 happens after ATF, we don't know what happens to Angel and them, so you never know really.)

I don't think Angel does know "that move"- he was unconscious when buffy performed and yes he woke up and saw the results, but how would he know which direction Buffy split him in half from? For all he knew she started with Caleb's head. I don't think she told him . . . Personally I'm hoping either a) It's a false cover b) It's real but it's miselading us deliberately, maybe Angel returns and dresses up as Twilight as part of some disguise plan but isn't actually Twilight? I mean building up Twilight's powerbase would have taken a lot of time and Aftermath sn't that far behind the buffy comics, so it doesn't fit. Unless Aftermath really isn't canon, I mean technically Joss has only ever said that After the Fall was . . .

Angel as twilight probably said 'i know that move' because buffy kicked him in the nuts back in season 2-"Innoncence"

It doesn't actually show him unconscious during that scene though, so although he acts like he was knocked out, it doesn't necessarily mean that he was. And, it's confirmed by Scott Allie that Twilight really is Angel.

It would be funny if we ever see someone dressed up as Twilight for Halloween. I doubt anyone will do it though.

Ok having been through denial, anger, bargaining and depression I've finally moved onto acceptance. I really am a Bangel fan and Angel's a great character so let's just put our faith in Joss and trust that he can make this work I'm certainly excited . . .

I've moved to acceptance, because there's no other choice... The thing is, though, moving to one stage doesn't make the previous ones go away. I've got anger, depression, and acceptance all at once.

I am still convinced that this just is a hoax.
Unless someone can give me a link to an article/interview that is more convincing than the CBR-article.

Thanks for the link!
Still, I don't think that this is for real. Of course he would say what he says in the interview, no matter if the spoiler is a hoax or not. I suspect it's a ruse to really surprise us when the issue gets out.
Until then, it's up to everybody to believe it or not. We'll see how it plays out ;-)

So now that he's been ousted (sort of) I think it's time we refocused speculation on motive. As soon as I get back to school (soon, very soon) I'll be completely re-devouring my books, putting Angel's face on Twilight, and wondering "why" until my brain hurts. I think another trip to Hell-A wouldn't hurt either.

Well, maybe there is the possibility of someone impersonating Angel. Just a look-a-like. The covers, statements and interviews would be no lie, in terms of Angel appearing. Only that it isn´t the real Angel.

I have to admit, it makes sense that Twilight's identity is quite simple. Some people had well thought out, elaborate theories about how he could be Buffy from the future or her son etc etc but if he's Angel it seems a lot more plausible. I know there's going to be a lot of explaining to do though. But maybe Buffy is the only person who can get Angel back on the right track, with love, in the same way that Xander saved Willow from herself. Mind you, I always thought he looked like the guy from 'Magic's Biggest Secrets Finally Revealed' ; )
