Buffy : Season 8

Buffy Season 8 in Comicbookresources most important comics of the decade

Tuesday 5 January 2010, by Webmaster

25. Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Season Eight by (Dark Horse)

The seventh season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which ended with the closing of the Hellmouth and the destruction of Sunnydale, ended in 2003, and it wasn’t until 2007 that we got to see the eighth season. And of course, things were a little different — Xander had an eyepatch, the gang now included an army of Slayers and the cast wasn’t in Sunnydale anymore ... and oh yeah, it wasn’t on TV, it was in a comic published by Dark Horse.

And while it wasn’t the first time a TV show had been adapted into a comic, or even the first time Buffy and the gang had appeared in comics, it’s remarkable enough for this list because it’s canon, it’s overseen by Buffy creator Joss Whedon and it showed other folks in Hollywood that hey, even if your show gets canceled or just ends or you have trouble dealing with the suits, there’s another medium out there that gives you more control over your creation. There’s a medium where you can continue to tell your stories long after the lights are turned off or the cast has moved on, and where your audience can fall in love with your story all over again. — JK Parkin
