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!

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!”
