Buffy #2 came from the exactly same crew as in #1, so there wasn't exactly any surprises in the art work.


Writer Andi Watson continues to show off his taste of the Buffyverse, within the limitation of ending the story within single issue. There's a nice feel for the characters throughout, and he combines different aspect well. I also find the art work improving as they become more familiar with the characters and the Sunnydale feel,... maybe with an exception for Buffy's eyes on several occasions in this number.

Overall it's a strong single-issue story, but I can hardly wait to they start doing their continuous storylines in just a few numbers. Then they'll have the room to kick it up the notch to produce absolute gold on more regular basis.
