Buffy the Vampire Slayer #28

Buffy leans intently over an open tome covered in arcane script and a pentagram diagram, surrounded by shelves packed with mystical artifacts — crystals, potion vials, a stone skull, a dagger, and an assortment of occult jewelry — all rendered in rich, moody blues and purples by cover artist Frany. The atmospheric composition captures the Slayer in a rare moment of focused research rather than combat, suggesting the supernatural puzzle at hand demands as much brainpower as brawn. Jeremy Lambert and Valentina Pinti's 2021 run on this BOOM! Studios series continues to find fresh angles on Sunnydale's favorite hero.
