Been reading some of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer comic-books, set after the TV shows ended.
It's a very different world with Buffy and Xander being commanders of a whole slayer army with seemingly massive resources, from a castle being attacked by various supernatural forces.
Very different pacing from the TV show too.
You know that episode of Angel where Spike and Angel are running around in Italy chasing after Buffy who now dates The Immortal?
Turns out it wasn't Buffy at all, but one of her decoys that have been deployed around the world. Andrew thought it would be funny to troll the two vampires by pretending she was dating The Immortal.
The artwork is all great, but sometimes a little rough and I find it challenging since I don't always recognize who is supposed to be who, especially as the artists and styles switch from book to book.
Some of the mini stories feel like just pulling the TV show characters back for no good reason.
I hear rumors of a new Buffy TV show starring SMG with no involvement from Joss, and wonder if it'll assume these stories of visiting the future or fighting with an army from a castle base will be retconned out entirely?
It's an entertaining read and nice to visit those characters again, but doesn't feel much like the TV show because it's such a different setting and Buffy is very different as a commander than a school girl.

This seems very grim: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/oct/04/greta-thunberg-israel-gaza-sweden The Israelis appear to be trying to make an example of Thunberg. So brave of them 🙄 . (<-total sarcasm) It feels distinctly like the world - especiall…

You may remember a few weeks ago I was at the live @… show in London.
My opinions are all so very great that I won the top prize, the first ever awarded. As you would expect and is only correct.
I took the jar to the party but nobody there even heard of B3ta or Fesshole or AnonOpinion or @…
So nobody was very impressed and seemed to prefer to concentrate on the cheese and the marmalade made by their friend with his own oranges grown on his trees.
No accounting for taste.
So I got to bring most of it home and finish it off this week.
Sweet sticky delicious and orangy. Thank you maam.
