Product Description
Eisner award-winning writer Brian K. Vaughan (Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina) tackles Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight with "No Future for You." When a rogue debutant Slayer begins to use her power for evil, Giles is forced to recruit the rebellious Faith, who isn't exactly known for her good deeds. Giles offers Faith a clean slate if she can stop this snooty Slayer from wreaking total havoc - that is, if Buffy doesn't beat her to it. Georges Jeanty (The American Way) remains at the top of his game as series artist, and Whedon stays on as "Executive Producer" in this direct follow-up to Season Seven of the smash-hit TV series.

What a great format for Buffy,
This review is from: Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Eight Volume 2: No Future For You (Paperback)
As a die-hard Buffy fan, and also an avid reader of graphic novels, perhaps I am a little biased when I say This is Awesome! Putting the Buffyverse in comic book format was a stroke of genius. Budget and ratings limitations that would have hindered these stories from being told via TV do not exist, and the stories shine because of it. The surprise reemergence of characters from the TV show is somehow more exciting read than seen; and the scope of these volumes (geographically, visually) is something I doubt we'd even be treated to when the show aired. The first volume (The Long Way Home) boasted this aspect as well; I especially enjoyed Volume 2 because of the deeper examination of Faith's character - something I always felt was lacking in Season 3 (and subsequent one-off appearances of her character) but that stands to enrich the Buffyverse, as well as the reader's (i.e. my) enjoyment. Plus: the characters swear! (Like Buffy and the Scooby gang WOULDN'T have let a coupla f-bombs drop over the course of seven seasons...) And Faith is a smoker! (spoiler?) And Dawn is all grown up - literally! And apparently, Buffy has a thing for Christian Bale!
I think ANY BtVS fan - whether or not they are into comic books - would heartily enjoy the continuation of the Buffy story.

Even better that the first volume,

This review is from: Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Eight Volume 2: No Future For You (Paperback)
Volume one was a really good read, this one is even better. It's almost impossible to stop in the middle and resume your reading later, you want to know what will happen now. Season 8 of Buffy may have been an excellent season if the show was still on TV at the time, at least, we now have an idea of what Joss Whedon and his team were having in mind. The only negative point is that you goes from first to last page in an hour or so, but it is still worth the purchase of the seven volume in the series. 4,5/5

Season 8 better than the omnibus volumes,
By
This review is from: Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Eight Volume 2: No Future For You (Paperback)
The season 8 comics are way better than the ones included in the omnibus volumes. It makes me wish that there had been a season 8 on television.
