After reading the dialogue preview on IDW's forum, I had to laugh at something very hard in how it relates to S8.
You see, apparently W&H decided to use Drusilla to torment Spike because they could not manipulate Buffy.
"The Slayer cannot be easily manipulated."
I giggle-snorted soda out of my nose at that. Really? Really!? It was really easy for Twilight to do it. Just kill a whole bunch of innocent people, get Angel to give up on everything he believes in (which was super easy... get it, super easy? ah, nevermind), and put a stressed out Buffy in a position to get sex (because, you know, hysterical women have to have their uteri weighted down with a man's seed to be sane again), and then it's just really, totally, completely easy to manipulate Buffy. Way to under-estimate yourselves, W&H.

Oh, I'm such a bitca today. I think I'm really tired of the soul storylines at IDW. Seriously, all of their storylines are about souls. They had entire arcs of Angel that had little to do with his soul, so why does every character's story have to do with their soul or lack thereof. They're just rewriting canon physics over there, and they've got a more messed up concept of balance than Joss Whedon. Apparently when someone regains their soul, someone else loses theirs... which makes no sense because when you lose your soul in the Buffyverse it's not destroyed, it just goes up to the glowy interregnum place in the ether.
