Product Description:
Since the destruction of the Hellmouth, the Slayers - newly legion - have gotten organized and are kicking some serious undead butt. But not everything's fun and firearms, as an old enemy reappears and Dawn experiences some serious growing pains. Meanwhile, one of the 'Buffy' decoy slayers is going through major pain of her own. Buffy creator Joss Whedon brings Buffy back to Dark Horse in this direct follow-up to season seven of the smash-hit TV series. The bestselling and critically acclaimed issues #1-5 are collected here for the first time, as are their covers by Jo Chen and Georges Jeanty.

Rating: - BTVS The Long Way Home
I'm kind of disappointed--the comic version was hard to follow and it seemed like much more of an emphasis was placed on 'ooh, how much skin can we show' than how much character development & plot we can have.There's no development, the plot is very fuzzy and short, and we're just given more questions and no answers.I want to know what happened to Willow and Dawn and Xander and what the gang's been up to, instead of more bloody battles and what the heck, FAIRIES?I mean...there's demons ...

Rating:  - A void filled
Being a buffy and angel fan, I was hestitant to actually start reading these.I read the other reviews, and noticed that the comics were written by the man himself.I also read the astonishing X-Men, written by Whedon, and knew he had a voice for comics.The only problem with this is it's too short.I was hoping for both volumes 1 & 2, to be combined into one for this.The stories are good and the quick quips that Whedon is known for continue.The line about Sergant Fury just made me put ...

Rating:  - Pretty average fair
This book is written/produced by Joss Whedon and like everything Joss touches some people will think it is wonderful, however, I can't find much good to say about this graphic novel.
Joss's work in comics has been very varaible.At points, he hits on the stellar characterization and emotional warmth that has drawn many to his tv works, however, at other times the work is pretty much drivel and poor pulp fan fare.His best works to date in comics IMHO are probably the first 12 issues ...

Rating: - FANTASTIC!
While this wasn't what I wanted to see for a next season type of thing, it's still Joss Whedon and his vision how he would have like to continue it, with no budget to worry about.
There are ups and downs in the storytelling, as there were when the TV series began, but just like that series, one is rewarded for their patience.
The art is more realistic than I had expected, but still stylish as all get out.The writing is very good as one would think, and the appearance of ... Read More
Rating:  - Cauldron-boiler stuff
Buffy the movie was clever and fun. The seven TV seasons were some of the best entertainment ever, IMO. I have Fray and Tales of the Slayers comics and they're ok. Season 8 Vol 1 is ok as well, I guess. Calling this season 8 implies it's going to be TV-quality Buffy, but in a different medium. I don't see why that's not possible and, especially after reading other reviews, I actually believed it. But S8V1 is very low quality and I'd go as far as to say it is not entertaining, certainly not considering ... Read More
