Featuring stories that delve into the dynamics between Buffy, Angel, Cordelia, Giles, and Wesley Wyndam-Pryce, it includes the adaptation of the episode 'The Wish' and original tales exploring the fallout of Angel's curse and the arrival of the new Watcher.
In "City of Despair," Buffy grapples with the unsettling truth that her sister Dawn is no ordinary girl—she’s a mystical Key, brought to her by forces who rewrote everyone’s memories of her past. As a Japanese vampire arrives in Sunnydale with a deadly mission, Buffy must confront her own rage and doubt, especially when Dawn reminds her of a past sacrifice that changed everything. When Dawn vanishes during a patrol, Buffy is left searching for answers in a town where nothing feels real anymore. Written by Tom Fassbender and Jim Pascoe, with art by Cliff Richards and inks by Joe Pimentel and Will Conrad, this gripping issue features a haunting cover by Paul Lee and Brian Horton.
In "Lost and Found," Buffy grapples with uncertainty about her future while navigating a summer of shifting relationships and unexpected dangers. When Riley is left in a coma after a violent encounter with the vengeful ghost of a murdered homeless man, Buffy, Willow, Xander, and Anya must track down the vampire who stole the ghost’s ring—while Giles tries to balance a new romance with a visiting librarian.
In "Invasion," the quiet terror of Sunnydale escalates as a ghostly presence drives Riley into a coma, and Forrest becomes the unwitting host to a swarm of monstrous insects. With Giles and Rebecca tracking down Warren Whitcomb, the town’s insect expert, the stakes rise when Forrest—now transformed—turns on them in a chilling attack. As Buffy patrols with Spike’s reluctant help and the others scramble to find a solution, the line between monster and man begins to blur.
In "Hive Mentality," Dr. Warren Whitcomb’s sudden abduction from his lab sets off a chain reaction in Sunnydale, where Xander, Anya, Willow, Tara, Buffy, and Spike must unite to face an unnatural threat. When Spike discovers the giant insects are powered by enchanted stones, he takes a dangerous path alone, while the rest of the team follows a transformed Forrest into the heart of a terrifying swarm.
In "Out of the Fire, into the Hive," Riley stumbles from a coma straight into a nightmare when he arrives at Giles' house to find Spike stealing a magic stone tied to a deadly insect infestation. With the hive queen whispering through the body of Dr. Whitcomb, the giant insects' plan to conquer the surface world begins to unfold. As Riley and Spike race to the insect lair, they must fight their way through the swarm to save the gang—just as Buffy prepares to use the stone to strike at the hive’s heart.
In "Remember the Beginning," Buffy grapples with the unsettling truth that her sister Dawn is no ordinary girl—she’s a mystical Key, and her entire life with the Summers family was built on false memories. As a Japanese vampire arrives in Sunnydale with a deadly mission, Buffy must confront her own past and the fragile bond she shares with Dawn, who reminds her of a moment when she once saved her life. When Dawn vanishes after a patrol, Buffy is left searching for answers in a world where nothing is as it seems.
In "Remember the Lies," Buffy tracks down Dawn after she vanishes, following clues from the Magic Box to Spike’s crypt—where tensions rise as ancient forces, including the servants of a Japanese vampire, steal the mysterious Eidu Amulet. With Spike hinting that Giles is hiding something about a missing Slayer, Buffy confronts her watcher, only to be met with silence and secrets.
In "Remember the Truth," Buffy returns home to find Dawn more drawn to Spike than to her usual companions, setting off a chain of uneasy revelations. As tensions rise and secrets surface, Buffy must confront the eerie truth behind the Eidu Amulet and a long-lost slayer whose return threatens to awaken an ancient evil. The story unfolds with quiet dread, weaving past betrayals and forgotten histories into a suspenseful confrontation that tests loyalty and memory.
In "Remember the End," the Eidu—a secretive order of vampire monks devoted to the Master—prepare to summon his spirit into a living host, with Xander unwittingly chosen as the vessel. As Willow, Anya, Tara, Buffy, Giles, and Dawn race to stop the ritual at the abandoned high school, they must confront not only the ancient threat but the fragile bonds that could be broken in the process.
