"Coyote Moon" Review
This is, without a doubt, the worst Buffy novel I’ve ever
read.
That’s right, I’m skipping my usual alliterative
introduction to get straight to the point on this one: “Coyote Moon” is a bewildering,
uninspired, incoherent mess— and I absolutely loved it.

"Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus, Vol. 2" Review
Howdy Hellmouth hounds!
Get ready for another heartfelt analysis of Buffyverse material!
Based on the rousing response I received on my last comic book review, I’ve decided to put the Buffy novels on the back burner for
the time being and continue critiquing the collections. So hold on to your hats
- it’s time for “Omnibus: The Sequel” (aka “Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus,
Vol. 2”)!

Fan's Fare: An Inside Look at the First Custom-Built Buffy Pinball Machine
Whedonites are renowned throughout pop culture circles for
their diehard dedication. From mounting one of the most impressive TV campaigns of all time, to helping “The Avengers” set box office records, not
to mention the countless original works and academic studies, Whedon supporters continue
to find new and creative ways to highlight the genius of Joss.

"Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus, Vol. 1" Review
Greetings Buffy buffs, and welcome to another clever critique
of written works in the Whedonverse!
Having reviewed several of the Buffy novels, I’ve decided to shift my focus and examine another merry medium— the Dark Horse Buffy comic books!
*sings "Dark Horse, Dark Horse..." |
Originally published from 1998-2003, the initial run of Buffy comics was set in the then-current second season of the show and had little-to-no involvement from Joss. Over this five-year period, the authors began to branch out from the TV timeline and started drafting stories that filled in the gaps to various parts of the Buffy mythos.
Rather than examining each of these comics individually (for
both time and financial reasons) I’m going to be reviewing the trade paperbacks
that contain several issues in one collection. And what better anthology to
analyze than “Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus, Vol. 1!”
