Actor Nicholas Brendon joins the creative team as his character Xander acquires help from his old friend—um, master—Dracula. The new vampires are still a mystery, and unquestionably similar to Drac . . . Meanwhile, Buffy and Willow track down one of those new vampires as a study specimen!
A terrific entry point for new readers or newbies to Buffy and the Scoobies' exploits. Veteran readers will be laughing and gasping at what their favorite charactersdo and say. This is just plain fun. Read Full Review
I really can't say how much I loved this issue and how much I'm loving this series. You all really need to be reading this, especially if you are a Buffy fan. Read Full Review
The artwork remains a consistent bonus throughout the issue, as Isaacs brings Gage and Brendons narrative to visual signification with the help of Jacksons palette of strong colours. There are many things to love and praise about the interior art of Issue #3. Its emotive, dynamic, and thoroughly engaging, from the busy action panels to the quiet introspective moments. The spot-on character design for Dracula, the action at the ruins of the Sutro Baths, as well as Buffy and Willows kidnapping quest through the streets of San Francisco, are just a few personal highlights. Isaacs and Jacksons individual contributions and styles of art complement each others impressive work, and they along with Brendon seem to be a perfect match for Gages Buffy Season 10.

Great pacing, plenty of humor, and an emotional end. Quintessential Buffy comic. Read Full Review
Co-written by Nicholas Brendon the dialogue feels as sharp as ever, and not just with Xander as Buffy and Willow share the kind of bestie moment we haven't seen between them in quite some time. Must-Read. Read Full Review
This issue of Buffy The Vampire Slayer not only reminds us of the entertainment value that it carries, but it also reminds us that things can easily take a turn for the worst when you let your guard down. We had our comedic interactions between Dawn, Xander and Dracula, but then we also had something more genuine from Buffy and Willow as they tracked down one of those new vampires as a study specimen. Such that you can only get from Buffy and there's no questioning what more you can get out of it as a fan and reader. Read Full Review
Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 10 #3 is easily the best issue of the series so far and though there's still room for improvement it's starting to show strong promise. Highly recommended. Read Full Review
There was a lot of good things going on here character-wise with Buffy and Willow as they went on their vampire hunt during the day. Despite being humans, they're really creatures of the night since they've been hunting them for so long. There's also some weird tension going on between Xander and Dawn, which lead to him being fully mind controlled again. All said, what's about to go down is going to be very, very bad.

On the whole then, the addition of Nicholas Brendon to the creative team has been a firm success, giving us one of the most comedic issues of Buffy to date, not just in the tenth season but since the comic began in Season 8. Itll be interesting to see where we go from here, and the next issue cant come quickly enough. Read Full Review
Overall this is a set up issue filled with humour; as such it is no jumping on point for new readers. If you have been keeping up with the Buffyverse then you will appreciate this is a necessary issue for the arc as a whole as we delve deeper into the New Rules. Read Full Review
