Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 10 #11

Buffy and Spike stand back-to-back against a San Francisco backdrop — the Golden Gate Bridge glowing warmly in the distance — as Buffy grips a wooden stake and wears a guarded, determined expression, while Spike gazes coolly into the distance in his signature dark coat. It's a moody, beautifully rendered cover by Steve Morris that sets the stage perfectly for "Love Dares You, Part One," hinting at the complicated partnership — and perhaps something more — between the two. With Christos Gage writing and Megan Levens on art, Season 10 continues to be one of the more compelling chapters in Buffy's post-television life.
