Buffy the Vampire Slayer #56

In "Slayer, Interrupted Act 1," Buffy returns to Sunnydale after a chaotic trip to Vegas, only to find her world unraveling at home. Dawn’s discovery of Buffy’s diary has convinced her parents that she’s lost her mind—leading to a desperate, emotional confrontation that puts Buffy’s sanity and safety in question. Written by Scott Lobdell and Fabian Nicieza, with art by Cliff Richards and inks by Will Conrad, the issue’s haunting tone is matched by Dave McCaig’s subtle colors and Clem Robins’ sharp lettering, while Paul Lee and Brian Horton deliver a cover that captures the moment’s raw tension.
