This is great.
At least until the investigate the fate of one of Buffy's doubles issue, but Whedon totally nails this for the story arc part, and the art is pretty reasonable, too, if a little shakier on some of the minor characters like Andrew, etc.
With Willow out of touch, Amy and Warren working with the military, and a giant Dawn, Xander's Nick Fury skills running a few hundred Slayer chicks are well tested.
Very well done.
4.5 out of 5

To put it in the simplest of terms, I'm hooked again on the Slayer story. The season eight storyline is really intresting and I can't wait for the concluding volume two!

Clearly Joss Whedon can do what he likes with the Buffy franchise and I wish him well.
Clearly many people have enjoyed this version of Buffy and I respect that.
I, however, did not enjoy it at all.
For me this was disjointed and lacked emotional depth. The tone of the series was absent.
It seemed to be all about one-liners and jumpy pacing.
The best of the series had a melancholy and emotional resonance that this book lacks. It might be that this format is not conducive to the contemplative moments and soulful interactions that made the series so good.
I will not be reading future volumes.

I gave Amazon 1 star for the quick devilery, and the comic it self 3 stars. The art made it a little hard to understand who was who in the comic untill introductions were made. And I found the story/dialoge a little confusing, I predict that it will all become clearer with more of a plot buildup. I'll be buying the next collection of season 8 to better understand the story and see if it develops more which I'm sure it will. Overall I found the story to be very short, mainly written to explain what has happened since season 7. Hopefully the next novel won't be so introdutionary (and Faiths in it, so that should make it more interesting).And is it just me or did they off off Anya so that Xander could get a bunch in this season?Poor Anya.

But I still wish it were on television. It it sometimes hard to get into the characters in the comics. If you watch an old episode before reading it, though, it comes a little easier. You can actually "hear" the characters in your head instead of just reading it on paper.
