Not a huge fan of DeKnight (he's okay--nothing special), but I guess Drew Goddard can't write every issue... Aw come on! DeKnight is DeAwesome. Although I think his best episodes were on ANGEL. He wrote Damage and Shells for AtS and Spiral for BtVS - doesn't that count for something?

Ok, Satsu is in the Cover 22, that so Cool, i love this character, and she will be in the cover 22! (my number) ^_^ the cover is really cool, (like always) and like Lukee said, "i hope K does do the dirty on Willow" honestly i don´t have any idea about willow´s future... :/

Here are my theories for this issue, not that many: 1. Kennedy and Satsu are in a life threatening situation and kiss but NOTHING will go further than that because in the "Time of Your Life" arc, I could see that Kennedy really loved Willow and was paranoid that Buffy liked her (quite funny actually). 2. Buffy and Twilight go for another one on one fight, but this time she's more prepared. 3. Riley will play a bigger part in the issue, either meet up with Buffy or one of the scoobies (won't get revealed) and helps Twilight out with something. 4. My last theory is that Dawn goes through her final transformation; hopefully when its the Dawn/Xander story thingy, she goes back to normal. So that's about it, I'm kinda hoping something will spark between Kennedy and Satsu but Kennedy will be more mature about it and say no. Willow & Kenned = forever! "until Tara comes back" lol.

I am looking forward to thses individual character issues. It is very interesting to where they will go and what differneces they will all have. I know the 'arc' is about vamps becoming public knowledge and some charatcers might like this and some...not. Guess we'll see. Come on issues get moving. At least we still have issue 20 next week.

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? Well, the little furry things that Kennedy and Satsu find are after Buffy. So, I guess that's what the cover is showing.

I hope she at least makes an appearence in the issue though. An issue without Buffy feels weird, like in The Chain and NFFY Pt. 2.

Yeah, I agree. An issue without Buffy does feel weird. If she doesn't appear, I'm going to be disappointed that she was put on the cover. It's very misleading, though I guess one could argue that any attack on the Slayers is an attack on Buffy. But still...

Is it just me or does Jeanty's drawings of Buffy seem kind of different or a bit of a downgrade?

Why wouldn't Buffy be in the issue? I think the arc focuses on side characters, but that it also does go back to the main story in all issues.

Reading though the blurb, I too got the impression that Buffy wouldn't be appearing in the issue. From my understanding, all 5 issues in Predators and Prey would be set along the same time line and told from 5 different perspectives.
Because the arc will be told from 5 different perspectives, I HOPE there will be a unifying story going on to tie the stories. That being said, I don't see a necessity that Buffy appear in all issues, especially because they seem to be trying to isolate each issue as much as possible, shinelighting a small number of characters for each. In fact I think that the absence of Buffy will accent the differences in each perspective, adding more to the story, not less.

I think it's cool that Kennedy and Satsu got the painted cover treatment. I'll definately be getting Chen's cover for this issue.

I don't see why we could not have an issue without Buffy? The story is told from 5 different points of view and Buffy has hers in issue 23. I do think its pointless to put her into a variant is she is not gonna be in the issue.. I think that she will be there, she just won't be the narrator..

Or, in the spirit of most of the variants, the cover art doesn't really depict what's going on inside the book, but rather a concept. If the whole idea of the arc is that the Slayer organization comes under fire, and more specifically, the evil little Tamagotchis are out for Slayer blood, then who better than Buffy to represent the Slayers? She is afterall, the figurehead of the whole organization. The variant shows Buffy being overwhelmed by the little critters, which would be symbolic, I guess. Unless, of course, there are panels of Buffy being attacked by caped munchkins... wonder if you can stake 'em.

About Buffy being in variants, even tough she's not that big part of the issues, I think I read the the second sketchbook that darkhorse really wants Buffy to be on at least one of the two covers. i guess it has to do with advertisement. She sells.
