Faith's out to kill a Slayer.
Lady Genevieve Savidge is one of the most dangerous women on the planet. If she's left unstopped, the British heiress will usher in the apocalypse. Faith has accepted Giles's offer of an early retirement package for this gig--but the wetworks will have to wait till she's infiltrated Savidge's mystically protected estate.Pub. Date: Oct 03, 2007 Season 8, Issue 7Overall, I enjoyed this issue. The "bum a fag" joke seemed pretty lame, and the brief scene with Dawn and Willow felt a bit out of place. Very interesting that Faith has become "Hope" though. Will this mean a change in her character? Can charity be next? It looks like she was about to retire (from Giles' comment to her). However, from the preview of the next cover, I think we can assume that Faith accepts Gigi's invitation to help overthrow Buffy. I wonder just how many others are involved in the whole Twilight thing though.

I really liked this issue. I thought it had a great little "twist" at the end and only makes me more excited for next months. The cover for next month makes a little more sense now.

I really liked this one, but even though we all saw the cover of the next issue, I really hope, deep inside that Faith don't go againt Buffy again. I like them better working together.

Given that none of the Chen covers so far have accurately represented scenes from the issue in question...

I FINALLY got Issue #7 today and I adore it! The beginning with Faith looking back on her fight with Buffy in "Graduation Day Part 1" was nice. It was quite a funny issue as well, Faith made me laugh with some of her comments like when she's taunting that security guard lol! The knife in her hair was cool too. Roden and the gargoyles seem very creepy. We saw more of Genevieve which is good. I liked the bit with Willow and Dawn, and how Dawn's eating apples which are like the size of berries to her. And it was cool to see Renee again and hear some talk about Amy and Warren. The bit when Faith and Genevieve have a talk and a cigarette was cool I thought and when the gargoyles lifted Faith up and they had a fight and she killed them. That was cool! The end was good with Genevieve telling Faith about the slayers and Roden not looking too happy. Then revealing that she wants to kill Buffy! Such a cool ending! Loved this issue, and I can't wait for the next one!

Great issue, in my opinion. It will be interesting to see whether or not Faith returns to "the dark side."
