“Lost and Found”

In "Lost and Found," Buffy faces a crossroads as college ends and her relationship with Riley deepens, prompting her to seek guidance from Giles and her mom. When Riley is left in a coma after a violent encounter with a vengeful ghost seeking a stolen ring, Buffy, Willow, Xander, and Anya team up to track down the vampire behind the haunting—while Giles navigates an unexpected date with a visiting librarian. Written by Tom Fassbender and Jim Pascoe, with art by Cliff Richards and inks by Joe Pimentel, this emotionally driven issue blends supernatural mystery with the personal stakes of growing up. The cover, penciled by Richards and inked by P. Craig Russell, captures the tension of a world where the past refuses to stay buried.

College is out for the summer and Buffy asks Giles and her mother for advice about what she should do now that Riley wants to spend more time with her. Giles goes out on a date with Rebecca Stansberry, a librarian in town for a summer seminar at the university. Riley is severely injured when he and ex-Intiative buddy, Forrest Gates, are assaulted by the ghost of a homeless man who was killed by vampires and wants his stolen ring back. Buffy, Willow, Zander, and Anya track down the vampire, retrieve the stolen ring and return it to the ghost, but Riley remains in a coma.
