Whoa. Dream guy was utterly not expected. At least I didn't expect who he turned out to be. Also Amy's boyfriend, he's looking much better than I'd have expected considering the circumstances. Though I'm not sure I think it should be possible for it to be him anyway.
So who do we think did with the kissing?

Nine times out of ten, Xander. Of course, Joss may choose this time to introduce a new love interest (or perhaps a ship we haven't thought of, if such a thing exists.
Oh, and page three? Serious wiggins. That's just...wrong.
I'm wondering what this secret organization really wants. I'm sure it's more than just to destroy the Slayer. Will Joss reveal this at the end of the arc, or wait until the end of the series?

it sure looks like xander, but i gotta say, isn't making it look like xander and then having it be someone else the joss thing to do? it just feels like xander is too much the obvious choice. unless we're SUPPOSED to think that, so when it really is xander, we're all surprised...
i'm in agreement about page three ;)
on my ever-present tara wavelength; WHY must they keep torturing us? we get "she [kennedy] died" which is of course followed by SQUEEE'S of delight and a rampage around the house to tell everyone home the good news, and then, when i've settled down enough to read the next panel: "oh no! she's fine!"
THROW US A FRIGGIN BONE HERE!

You're right. Nurses don't wear those kinds of caps any more.

After re-reading I'm intrigued by the dream image cubes on page 8. I think I see (among many other images I can't make out)
the Master,
Glory (though it's hard to say for sure as we only see her mouth, blond hair, and what looks like the back of a hand mirror),
Willow, Buffy, and Xander at graduation,
Somebody that looks like Mal -could be Caleb but i'm not getting a Caleb vibe or it could be Angel or Riley I suppose,
dead Joyce on the couch,
a couple Giles and Buffy memories,
Dawn at the Washington Monument,
demon roommate Kathy,
the top of the head of the first slayer,
and finally is that Joss?
Anybody else see any more?

I was never really a comic book reader as a kid. I was more about actual books then. I've gained a greater apreciation for the art form as an adult though I don't really read any comics regularly. Needless to say the season 8 comics are an exception to that statement. Oh and judging by the print runs I think you may need to add a couple zeroes to your ID number.

As for who kissed buffy...Maybe its just me but it seemed like it was Willow. Someone that "loves" buffy but was too afraid to say anything...everyone close your eyes...? I donno it seemed like that would be the shocker that it was Willow who actually had romantic intrest in Buffy that she herself knew to be impossible in reality but remained regardless...I don't know just a thought.

I got it! WooooooooooHooooooooooooo!!!!!!! Tried a different store and they had it.
Joss threw us again with Ethan Rayne! Hadn't heard anyone mention him as a possibility. And it was Warren! I thought he was a strong possibility, and it looks like Willow's in trouble! God, that was the best one yet! I am def on a high now.
I don't read a lot of comics, but it seemed that the drawing style changed between #2 and #3.
I went through the dream cubes too, I was expecting something significant to be tucked away in there. I was amused to see a potential reading Fray in one frame.
Big question: what was up with Giles and those demons?

It's like a cop show. When detective guy finds a body the first thing he does is ask the relatives if the deceased had any enemies. Enter grieving demon mom (or clan leader or whatever) who doesn't recognize the symbol. Assuming the demon wasn't lying of course.
