It is very definitely Faith strangling Buffy under water. As Jilli notes, that's a Faith outfit.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Plus, Buffy has a history of being drowned .

And a history of Faith trying to kill her. Though I thought they were past all that at this point. Wonder if it's real or a dream/fantasy (or that's not really one or the other of them).

I suspect she's another slayer. One we meet at the beginning of this particular arc.
I found the first cover more recognizable for Buffy and Faith. It could be because the same artist has done her enough I recognize the style. I didn't like the Faith on the second cover at all.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
A woman buys stolen Jack Kirby artwork from Avengers #1.
At a garage sale for $2.00.
Which she then gives to her daughter to color.

Holy crap! The other comic looks like an old EC horror title...
