Always character driven. Always action packed. Always the best. Buffy the Vampire Slayer should always be on your pull list. Read Full Review
Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season 10 #24 upped the stakes in this fight in a way that you don't expect, bringing back that challenge the Hell Lords create when real life is kicking their butts to such an extent already. Read Full Review
Dawn was originally created as the physical embodiment of a key that can unlock gates between all dimensions and put into the care of the slayer, Buffy, because that was the safest place for her. Michelle Trachtenberg's sometimes alright, usually terrible performance aside, Dawn became a very important part of season five and beyond until now, and not just as the key. Dawn is her own person now, but they're decided to use her utilitarianly. The execution here is going to be, excuse the pun, key. If the rest of em force Dawn into this role as the last panel suggests, then it'll go a lot worse than it could. Read Full Review

Overall Season 10 of Buffy is better than season 9, but it isn't without its issues. There still feels like there's something missing in the comic series that wasn't in the show. It isn't the different mediums, but it's hard to pinpoint just what it is. Hopefully the creative team manages to figure it out as without the slight feeling of wrongness to it, it could be one hell of a comic. Read Full Review

The defeat of some of the bad guys and the destruction of the Restless Door should have felt much more exciting than this, but -- now that the series can move towards the finale at full speed -- hopefully that fun will roar back to its normal levels.
