☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis hefty collection kicks off Dark Horse's comprehensive Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus series, gathering early comics set before and during the TV show's first season. It includes the original 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' movie adaptation, the 'Fray' crossover, and key issues from the early 'Buffy' comic run, featuring the Scooby Gang—Buffy, Giles, Willow, Xander, and Cordelia—alongside Angel, Spike, and Drusilla. The volume covers formative stories that bridge the film and series, establishing the Slayer's world in comics form.
In "All's Fair," Buffy is summoned by her Watcher, Merrick, for her first true encounter with a vampire, marking the beginning of her journey as the Slayer. Through flashbacks, the story reveals two past lives of the Slayer—one in 14th-century Europe and another in 18th-century Hong Kong—hinting at a legacy far older than she knows. Written by Joss Whedon and Christopher Golden, with art by Joe Bennett and inks by Rick Ketcham and Randy Emberlin, this issue blends supernatural tension with deep historical echoes. The cover by Paul Lee and Brian Horton captures the eerie, timeless tone of the tale.
