[edit] Plot
[edit] Part I (Issue #16)
On a hot tip, Buffy and Willow head to Manhattan hoping to unlock the secrets of Buffy's mysterious scythe, but something goes terribly awry when Buffy suddenly finds herself transported to an unknown world, and into the path of future Slayer Fray. Kennedy and Vi are set to re-appear in this arc. [1]
[edit] Part II (Issue #17)
After a shaky introduction, Buffy and Fray must join forces in order to discover the purpose of their meeting, and its impact on the world at large.
[edit] Part III (Issue #18)
A powerful enemy from Buffy's past confronts the Slayer and Fray in the future, having allied with Fray's greatest foe. Meanwhile, Dawn's gone through another bizarre change.
[edit] Part IV (Issue #19)
Plot Unknown
[edit] Production
This story arc is written by series creator Joss Whedon. The first issue will be the seventh issue of the series to be written by Whedon. Penciller Karl Moline has previously worked with Whedon on Whedon's Buffy spin-off graphic novel Fray. Fray will feature as one of the main characters in this arc. This will be the first time that Fray has crossed over into another part of the buffyverse.
[edit] Canonical Issues
This series has been described as 'canon' by both Whedon and various commentators. As the creator of Buffy, Joss Whedon's association with Buffyverse story is often linked to how canonical the various stories are. Since Whedon is writing this story, it will be seen as a continuation of the official continuity established by Buffy and Angel.
This may mean it contradicts information given in the previously released non-canonical Queen of the Slayers, and it could potentially contradict the upcoming novel, Dark Congress.
[edit] Timing
- Intended to be set after BtVS's seventh season. The precise timing of this arc is currently uncertain.
- Stories that take place around the same time in the Buffyverse:
| Buffy the Vampire Slayer SEASON EIGHT chronology |

| B7.22 "Chosen" (May 2003) |
| A5.22 "Not Fade Away" (May 2004) |
| A6.0 Spike: After the Fall |
| A6.1-12 Angel: After the Fall |

| Buffy Season Eight takes place at least half a year after "Not Fade Away." Angel: After The Fall also takes place sometime after "Not Fade Away." This places Buffy Season Eight at its earliest in November 2004. Specific timing of After the Fall remains unspecified. |
