Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 12 #2

The second issue of Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 12 — The Reckoning arrives with a striking cover by Stephanie Hans, showing Buffy striding forward at the center of her team through an urban street, her glowing presence set against a vivid magenta supernatural force that ripples and cracks across the cityscape behind them. Flanking her are four allies — a dark-haired woman with a weapon at the left, a suited figure, a young man in a coat, and a blue-haired woman in a bodysuit on the right — all moving with unmistakable purpose. With Joss Whedon and Christos Gage writing and Georges Jeanty and Karl Story on interiors, "Part 2: Future Shock" promises the kind of high-stakes ensemble energy that has kept this series so compelling in 2018.
