Challenge #49 A book based on or turned into a tv show (POPsugar reading challenge 2015) (I FINALLY FINISHED THE CHALLENGE!!!)

Not the best comic ever but also not the worse. Out of all four short comics I liked 3 of them which wasn’t bad. I feel like I’m just gonna leave the comics for now and go watch the show. I’m curious 🤔

This is a great collection, because it starts out with comics written later in the title's run, but set before the show started. Have you ever wondered how Buffy's origin would go if Dawn was there? Then this is the book for you. Along with a well done retelling of the original motion picture, this book has a few really good short stories, and the answer to the immortal question of what happened to Pike after Buffy left LA. I highly recommend this book to fans of the television show or readers o...

I enjoyed the collection of stories in this omnibus. It captured the same darkness the show had as well as its lighter, more humorous moments. Liked the art too!

I read this as a collection, so I wanted to rate the first Volume all together.

This was a really fun read! All the issues collected in this comics felt in line with the tv show and Buffy, of course, doesn't fail to deliver her one-liners while slaying. I have to say I enjoyed all the comics, but my favourite definitely was Slayer, Interrupted. Buffy faces new challenges as a new slayer and slowly learns more about her destiny. What really surprised me was that Dawn was included in the comics so early. I expected it to be more in line with the show, but I have to say I'm gl...

Man, I love this series. The art is fantastic! It follows the story of how Buffy and Giles came to Sunnydale, starting with the plot of the movie. It brings in familiar characters, and sets up events for the first season of the show. All of the characters are well represented, and you can really feel their voices in the dialogue.

4.5 stars. I didn't care much for the artwork in the first story, which features Drusilla and Spike. All of the stories are set before season 1. I enjoyed the rest, although seeing Dawn is a bit weird. I know when she was introduced on the show it was stated reality was altered and she was always there as Buffy's kid sister.

This was a fun read! This was not my favorite thing the read though :/ I liked the last couple of stories and did not really care for the first few ones. Something that bugged me was the inconsistency when it came to certain characters. For example, you meet the character Pike in this volume. In the first tale he is in, he has gray hair. Then in the next story, he has brown/red hair. I honestly had no idea that was the same person at first, and there was never any explanation for why the hair co...

It's Buffy... Enough said! ; )

This is cool. I like the art. It’s by no means just “Buffy, the comic version,” it’s all different stories. A lot of background about Buffy and Giles so far. The first story in the volume is about Spike and Drusilla and is the weakest story in my opinion so it’s unfortunate that they led with it. I almost stopped reading.

It was a very good book but I think the show is better.

Introduction: Now, I have to tell everyone who reads this review something…I am a HUGE FAN OF “BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER!!!” I have always loved that show and when I heard that they were making comic books out of this series, of course I had to check them out! So, when I picked up the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus Volume One,” I was wondering what this volume was going to be all about and to my excitement and delight, this volume detailed the early years of Buffy Summers when she first

All’s Fair - 3 starsBuffy: The Origin - 4 starsViva Las Buffy - 4 starsDawn & Hoopy the Bear - 4.5 starsSlayer, Interrupted, Chapter 1,2,3 & 4 - 4.5 stars

I have a soft spot for the Buffy comics for two reasons: 1) I like the show to an embarrassing degree and 2) I was an assistant editor on the comics (in fact, I'm credited with that in this volume though I don't think I actually worked on any of the issues in this collection -- they all came before or after my time on the title).Anyway, I liked this collection. They are good comics. Not great, but good. They capture something of the spirit of the show even if they can't quite capture the show's

I'm going to be upfront and mention that probably any and all Buffy and/or Angel graphic novels are going to be totally biased on my part. I kind of have a borderline unhealthy obsession with Buffy...so yeah. I'll still try to be critical, but they're pretty much all going to be five star ratings from me. ;)As in my "Charmed" graphic novel reviews, I'll be breaking these down by issue. I don't discuss too much of storyline because I like to stay mostly spoiler free. ;)1.) "All's Fair" Loved star...

I loved 75% of this, but I found one of the longer stories, Viva Las Buffy!, extremely hard to follow. That is why I am only giving this 3 stars. The story flipped back and forth between the perspectives of Buffy, Pike, and Angelus while trying to balance multiple story-lines and I was confused for most of it. I'm also not sure why this started with a story about Spike and Dru. I could not care any less about them than I already do so I was mostly uninterested throughout.Buffy: The Origin and Sl...

I love Buffy, but this was just ok to me Mel 🖤🐶🐺🐾

Being a huge fan of the Buffyverse and Joss as a whole, there is nothing about this collection that I dislike. The artwork is gorgeous, even with the different artists styles changing up every comic or so. The stories fit in beautifully with the Buffy series, lending witty comments, quirky facial expressions, and story arcs that tie everything together.I suppose you COULD read the comics in the order that they actually came out, if that's what strikes your fancy. However, if you're a fan of the

For starters, I have to confess I'm a huge fan of the TV show, so this won't even attempt to be unbiased. Now that's out of the way, can I gush about how much I love this universe and its characters? Buffy Summers feels real. Her troubles are the perfect mix between teen-girl-problems and savior-of-the-world-problems, and the reader can't help but feel sorry about her robbed youth and terrifying fate (cause, you know, slayers don't really have a long life expectancy). I had only seen the TV show...
