    All things must come to an end, and that time is now for ‘The Vampire Slayer' as the modernization of the Buffy mythos delivers its final perfect chapter. Any fans of the character or her world need to make sure this is a series they visit and re-visit, as it's the best version of the world we've gotten in the aftermath. A gorgeous, powerful, important series that has a lot to say about humanity and our struggles as well as our triumphs. Read Full Review

It doesn't quite have the same impact, but it does feel like a natural extension of the beloved franchise that fits everything together quite endearingly on the page. It all ends with a bit more cheesiness than most episodes of the TV show, but its a nice, cuddly close to an adaptation. And its just nice to see an old franchise continue to make its way forward after all these years. Read Full Review
