To my way of thinking, it's reasonable that magic wielding vampires with the focus/talisman of Willow's big spell from "Chosen" in hand would be able to reverse it piecemeal. I don't think that Buffy or Faith would be vulnerable to such measures though, as they were already called individually before that spell was cast .

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm thinking the exact same thing, Matt. Though, the head vamp did mention taking things "Global" and I couldn't tell very well for the art, but it looked like they might have had a giant red-thingy like the one the poor dead ex-Slayer picked up right before she got zapped into normal-dom. So they might be trying to unempower all the Slayers (except Buffy and Faith) en masse.

Which will be disappointing if they succeed, because I think the army of Slayers angle has plenty of story possibilities yet.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I forgot to say thanks for the recs. Fray is indeed a great book. It reminded me a bit of something I read, I think in Heavy Metal years ago about a boy and his demon pal.

I watched Spectacular Spider-man today. MJ showed up. I was underwhelmed.

So what's the general consensus on Season 8 so far and any guesses on who the big bad is? My vote is for Caleb, any other hypotheses?

I think Caleb is the most likely big bad I've heard posited so far. Which is why I'm positive it won't turn out to be Caleb.
