When reading the last issue, I was getting caught up on the lore that the previous titles were building upon, and appreciated some of the choices that the author and artist had made to continue the series with the same themes while attempting to make the Buffy world their own. Even with the little concerns that I have regarding art style and some of the dialogue choices, I still believe Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 10 #29 to be a solid title that can stand alongside the strength of the series, if not standing alone on its own merit. Christos Gage is writing the story of young adults becoming adults, and making decisions to deal with their past, whatever the consequence. Rebekah Isaacs is consistent with her art style, putting detail into the characters whether they are the focus of the frame or in the background fiddling with equipment, preparing for the upcoming battle. A battle that will be concluded in the next issue! Read Full Review

Xander's death (if that's what it really is, and not a trick) comes as a surprise as it would take away Buffy's oldest and most loyal friend.

Buffy Season 10 seems to be ending not with a bang, but a whimper. It's tough to sympathize with Buffy and the Scooby Gang because they brought all this on themselves. While it's been over a decade since the show went off the air, this comic is set only three years after the series finale. That would put these characters right in their mid-twenties and like most people in that age range, they're making poor life choices. Instead of backpacking across Europe to find themselves or getting a tattoo they'd regret later in life, the fate of the world hangs in the balance with these decisions. Read Full Review
