(click for HQ version) Written by Joss Whedon, art by Georges Jeanty, colored by Andy Owens, cover by Jo Chen. Since the destruction of the Hellmouth, the Slayers -- newly legion -- have gotten organized and are kicking some serious undead butt. But not everything's fun and firearms, as an old enemy reappears and Dawn experiences some serious growing pains. Meanwhile, one of the "Buffy" decoy slayers is going through major pain of her own. Buffy creator Joss Whedon brings Buffy back to Dark Horse in this direct follow-up to season seven of the smash-hit TV series. The bestselling and critically acclaimed issues 1-5 are collected here for the first time, as are their covers by Jo Chen and Georges Jeanty. 136 pages, $15.95, in stores on Nov. 14.

That is an AMAZING piece of artwork, it really is. Except perhaps Willow who is a bit too skinny.

I wish Jo would do all of the art for an issue! It could be a special one or something like that even.

I like getting the comics, but I may get the TPB too in this case Wow I really want to make a new banner for the forum with this...should I? I would say yes, but I really really REALLY REALLY love the banner you have. I mean maybe you'll top it, but I want to enjoy that one. LOL, it grabbed me to the site.

My only concern with this cover is buffy's green top and the slightly off perspective of the scythe blade. There are two points of perspective on it and to be honest i believe the blade looks too small. Overall, i love the epic feeling this cover gives off, the likenesses are better than ever and Jo Chen has managed to stun me yet again... I'm guessing by the scale of the art that the artwork will not take up all of the cover and also the 'buffy the vampire slayer' logo hasn't been incorparated into the art.

OMG, this is amazing. It makes me all tingly. The gang in the center, each displaying their strengths and surrounded by an army of Slayers, amazing Im definately getting this blown up into a poster Wayne

I have been trying to figure out why I'm not nearly as "gaga" over Jo Chen as alot of the folk on this forum are. It's her perspective!!! I can finally rest easy, it has been bothering me for a while and as I look over some of her other stuff, there are the same little perspective errors. Very distracting to me. Her stuff is beautiful but has NOTHING on Alex Ross!!!

That is an AMAZING piece of artwork, it really is. Except perhaps Willow who is a bit too skinny. Maybe she's been on the Atkins since the series ended? That, or she found a spell to make her skinny. She can do everything else these days, it would seem... I love the cover, though. Xander, especially, looks amazing; the buff hottie he's been portrayed as in much of the series so far, whilst still actually looking like Nick Brendan. MB x

Why hello, Xander, you look expecially snog worthy this evening.
Seriously, I'm going to get at least one copy of this one. Much more convenient than buying the comics and getting each individual cover separately.

Do you think that the layout of the front cover will be like that of the new buffy omnibus volumes because the scale of the drawing doesn't look as if it would fit the 7''x 10'' format that most TPBs go by???
