Buffy the Vampire Slayer #33
In "Hive Mentality," Sunnydale’s entomologist Dr. Warren Whitcomb vanishes from his lab, sparking a crisis that pulls Xander, Anya, Willow, Tara, Buffy, and Spike into a desperate hunt. When giant insects begin terrorizing the town, the group races to uncover the truth behind the creatures—only for Spike to discover the bizarre link between the bugs and ancient magic stones. With the help of a transformed Forrest, they push deeper into the insects' hidden lair, facing a swarm that's more than just a mindless horde. Written by Tom Fassbender and Jim Pascoe, with art by Cliff Richards and cover by Cliff Richards and P. Craig Russell, this 2001 Dark Horse issue blends sci-fi dread with supernatural mystery.
