Bi-sexuality in Buffy Season 8

Like many of you out there, I am a crazy fan of Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer. My love for Willow and Tara was one of the first indicators that I was a lesbian. Naturally I was thrilled to see Buffy being resurrected as a comic book with Buffy Season 8. Despite her chemistry with Faith in season 3, I always thought Buffy was pretty straight. Which is why I was shocked to open my new copy of “Buffy” (issue #12 scripted by Drew Goddard) and find Buffy in bed with a wildly attractive Asian woman named Satsu.  Buffy has only ever had relationships with men before, and earlier issues indicated that there may still be some unresolved feelings for Angel and Spike. I sure don’t know where this is going, but I am eagerly awaiting the next issue.

Any thoughts? Is the world ready for bi-sexual Buffy? I know I am.
