There Is No Way To Post This Without Spoiling Buffy If You Haven't Read
Fair warning, please skip over if you absolutely must stay away at all costs.
Fray is returning.
First up, Comic Book Resources just confirmed with Fray co-creator and artist Karl Moline. Starting with Buffy: Season Eight #16, expect a lot of surprises as Buffy finds herself in Fray's timeline.
When Fray splashes and slashes for the first time in #16, Moline admits readers may see a slightly different take on the character than the one they last saw in 2003. A new and improved Fray, if you will."I like to think that I have grown a lot as an artist, so she has definitely changed," explained Moline. "I think I have sacrificed some of my original enthusiasm and maybe a little bit of heart for a lot more drawing understanding. I have definitely evolved as an artist for the better. I really feel like the world is a lot more complex this time around and I have a better grasp of who Fray is and the other characters involved. And I am having so much fun with the future stuff. It's really pretty exciting [pauses], yes, pretty exciting."......"There are going to be definite character evolutions that people will not expect and people will be thrilled, hopefully, by everything Joss hands them. Personally, I am thrilled getting these scripts. Just seeing the crazy stuff he comes up with is so much fun and I really think the audience is going to like this story a whole lot."...
...Moline added that while Buffy regulars like Willow, Dawn, Xander and Kennedy will be along for the ride in the run, so too will some familiar faces from the "Future Slayer" like Fray's older sister Erin and her ex-boss, the mutant fish, Gunther. "There will definitely be some surprise characters, a couple of curve balls during the arc," teased Moline.

Other stuff like this: Buffy, fray
There are going to be definite character evolutions that people will not expect and people will be thrilled, hopefully, by everything Joss hands them.
Translation: They're going to turn Fray into a lesbian or bisexual.
If she wasn't already, I never really read Fray.
LOL this is a freaky coincidence i emailed these same articles earlier today before this was posted LOL

A reference to Kennedy - or like I call her - gay mini-Faith.
: )
Can't wait for the return of Fray. The book took me til issue 2 for it to all sink in with the universe/mythos/etc but in the end I really dug it and look forward to seeing how they merge the two time lines.
