I'm here! Laptop still broken though so this is the soonest I could get online on my roomie's computer.
I totally went "Okay, Angel is Twilight. So what does this mean for TYSK?" First thought. Trufax.
Angel's been on my betting card's #1 spot for Twilight for a long while now, but this depiction of Buffy kissing Twilight and being oh so happy that it's Angel - erm... wha huh? I think this portrayal has got to be the twist because of Buffy's shocked expression in the previous issue's cover. She was hurt and in pain there. This comical romance - well, I imagine it's simply that. An ironic showing of romantic love where as underneath the cover, within the story, there lies betrayal and lies.
So there's gotta be more to it. You don't reveal that Angel has been lurking and manipulating Buffy all Season and then she jumps his bones. Because OOC much? Recall how tiffed Buffy got over Pangs then magnify it by a 1000 and also make Angel a villain while still having a soul. Yeah. So the covers can't be straight interpretation of the story within.
And I've gotta say, considering how Joss ended BtVS by giving both B/A and Spuffy their dues, only bringing back Angel would be like a slap in the face. Especially since Spike and Angel are attached at the hip - both in the ANGEL comics and in previous Season 8 stuff (Buffy's dreams of both of them - they're always together).
