Buffy : Season 9

Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Season 9

Forget what they say – you can come home again. The comic series Buffy the Vampire Slayer burst onto comic shelves in recent years as a thriving title – and line – for Dark Horse, and gave Joss Whedon a chance to continue the stories he began so many years ago. Upon its launch, Buffy, The Vampire Slayer: Season 8 skyrocketed to the top of the U.S. sales charts – outstripping all others including Marvel and DC that month. Over the course of 40 issues, series creator Joss Whedon has taken readers dour expectations of a comic book based on a TV series and turned it on its head, leaving hardcore Buffy fans and comics readers alike scrambling for each new issue. With the culmination of Season 8 scheduled to hit January 19, Dark Horse has already started teasing the follow-up series set for later in 2011. Joining the line-up in 2011 will be a standalone series about Angel, who reappeared late in Season 8, as well as a few surprises according to the publisher.
