Buffy The Last Vampire Slayer 2023 2

Being new to slaying doesn’t mean that Thess likes being infantilized, especially by an over-protective demon named Anya, who’s controlling at every turn. But concerning Cora Devonshire–Thess’s current crush–is there any validity to Anya’s suspicion? As she and Cora get closer, Thessaly’s flippancy and resentment might just get the best of her though, when she takes on a job from the Watcher’s Council, and is pursued by some admittedly sexy stalkers...

Thess is all grown up, having taken up the mantle as the new Slayer! But with new responsibilities comes new enemies, and a mysterious clan will do anything to get to her, even if it means using her friends as bait. Fans won’t want to miss this brand new mini series from veteran Buffy scribe Casey Gilly, set after the events of Buffy The Last Vampire Slayer Special #1!

Cora comes clean after a night spent together with Thess; her past is tied to the enemy in ways filled with the demonic and arcane, and it’s too much for Thess to bear. Thess’s destructive power is dangerously out of control, with not much left of the boardwalk as Soren’s gang approaches... And with Thess keeping the mantle of the Slayer, what steps will Buffy take to heal her trauma and start a new chapter?

Thess feels betrayed when she discovers the truth of the mission she’s been sent on, and blows off some steam in unwise ways, revealing more than she probably should have about herself. But the gang and Anya have some information for Thess as well–things that will shed new light on Cora’s path.

Thess confronts Cora’s bullies but neither they–nor Cora–are what Thessally expected, and it affects her deeply to the point of being reckless. But thankfully some unexpected help arrives for Thess, someone who can help get Cora out of harm's way!

This is the Buffy Summers you know, who wants what every average teenager wants: friends at her new school, decent grades, and to escape her imposed destiny as the next in a long line of vampire slayers tasked with defeating the forces of evil...only this time around, her world looks a lot more like the one outside your window. Eisner Award-Winner Jordie Bellaire (Redlands), along with series creator Joss Whedon (Marvel’s The Avengers), bring Buffy into a new era with new challenges, new friends, and a few enemies you might already recognize. But the more things change, the more they stay the same as the Gang faces brand-new Big Bads, and the threat lurking beneath the perfectly manicured exterior of Sunnydale High confirms what every teenager has always known: high school truly is hell.

When a rogue debutant Slayer begins to use her power for evil, Giles is forced to recruit the rebellious Faith, who isn't exactly known for her good deeds. Giles offers Faith a clean slate if she can stop this snooty Slayer from wreaking total havoc—that is, if Buffy doesn't beat her to it. Georges Jeanty (The American Way) remains at the top of his game as series artist, and Whedon continues as Executive Producer in this direct follow-up to Season Seven of the smash-hit TV series. * Eisner award-winning writer Brian K. Vaughan (Y:The Last Man, Ex Machina) tackles Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight. * Collecting issue #6-10 of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight series. * "The dialogue is Whedonesque and I can hear how the actors would read there lines. It's fun and witty and we're treated to more fantastical stories than the WB/UPN could ever pony up the money to do." -Comic Book Resources Executive produced by Buffy creator Joss Whedon.
