Review: Angel & Faith #20

Review: Angel & Faith #20

With Angel and Faith’s mission almost complete, there had to be some big complications before it was over.  But thank god for those complications, as it gave us one of the best issues of Angel & Faith.

Review: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 #17

Review: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 #17

After a few quirky side arcs, Andrew Chambliss and company seem to be back on track with Buffy and the Scoobies.  Small problems persist, but #17 is a great issue. It never occurred to me that Buffy and Illyria hadn’t met before this issue.  One of the few major characters on Angel who didn’t crossover [...]

Review: Angel & Faith #17

Review: Angel & Faith #17

With season 9 ending soon, it’s time for the writers to start the big ending for the season arc.  Christos Gage has certainly done that with Angel & Faith #17. Gage writes this issue, the second in the arc, as if a TV season is coming to an end.  The big arcs seem to be [...]

Review: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 #16

With a new ally in the group, it’s time for the book to put the focus back on Buffy.  While there are plenty of new faces, the book has a back to basics feel that long time fans can’t help but love. Andrew Chambliss is back on as writer, after writing an episode of Once [...]

Review: Spike #4

Review: Spike #4

The end of Spike’s miniseries is getting closer, and the plot starts to inch towards an ending. But the issue suffers for this, as the subtle plot developments are thrown out in favor for fast paced plot developments.  But it’s still an enjoyable issue. The good is, while the issue is slightly subpar, it’s still [...]

Willow: Wonderland #1 Review

Willow: Wonderland #1 Review

After three stellar issues for Spike, I had high hopes for Willow.  She’s grown a tremendous amounts since the first season of Buffy, and her new role in life deserved a miniseries.  And my hopes were met, as the first issue was a solid issue. Jeff Parker, the unsung hero at Marvel, captures the voice of Willow [...]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 #14 Review

Much fanfare has been made of this issue, with the introduction of Billy the vampire slayer.  His first outing is ok, but it could have been better. First, let’s talk about the story.  It’s a generic story, giving readers the basic information about Billy.  His life is very similar to Buffy, to a point that [...]

It’s been an interesting season for Buffy.  She’s starting to feel the effects of destroying the Seed.  Then she found out she was a robot.  It’s safe to say, it hasn’t been easy for our favorite slayer.  #11 finds a way to turn this around for her, but is she ready to accept these changes? [...]

Catch Up Time: Buffy and Angel

Catch Up Time: Buffy and Angel

One of the best shows to come out of the 90s was Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and her spin-off Angel.  They balanced fantasy and horror, but featured such real characters, it was hard to not love them.  It was a tragedy when Buffy was cancelled after seven seasons, but it had it’s time and ended on [...]
