Background:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight is a comic book series published by Dark Horse Comics.
The series serves as a canonical continuation of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer,
and follows the events of that show's final televised season. It is produced by Joss Whedon
who wrote the first arc, "The Long Way Home". The first issue was released on March 14, 2007.

The series was originally supposed to consist of about 25 issues, but series editor Scott Allie
has confirmed they are already "up to about 50, could go a little higher". The comic series
will initially be called Season Eight, but from issue #6 onward the subtitle "Joss Whedon's
Season Eight" is added. At present, some plans for spin-off miniseries are in discussion
where side-stories too far outside of Season Eight's narrative would be played out. The
success of the series has prompted IDW Publishing and Joss Whedon to announce a concurring
continuation of the Angel television series, entitled Angel: After The Fall.



Comic Info:

Since the destruction of the Hellmouth, the Slayers--newly legion--have gotten organized
and are kicking some serious undead butt. But not everything's fun and firearms, as an old
enemy reappears and Dawn experiences some serious growing pains . . .

Buffy creator Joss Whedon brings Buffy back to Dark Horse in this direct follow-up to season
seven of the smash-hit TV series.
