PLOT
A
media student has found an old black and white horror film in the archives
and decides to sit down and watch it. It's a retro vampire movie,
although the difference with this one is the star can communicate with
whoever is watching! The next day the student goes around rounding
up people to star and write a new movie which he will direct. Unluckily
for him the students he does round up are none other than Buffy and the
rest of the Slayerettes. On the day of the rehearsal, Willow, Cordelia,
Xander and Oz show up. After a brief introduction they are transported
into the film, where the vampire star plans to make them his next victims!
Now all that stands between the Slayerettes and the final cut is Buffy,
but will she remember to show up?
ART
Wow!
The best artist on the Buffy series, Richards captures every member
of the cast exactly, no more trying to figure out who's who! I was
really looking forward to the next issue for the return of Joe Bennett,
but now I can't wait for Cliff Richards' next issue (#15)!
STORY
Evil
Bad Guy, Buffy saves the day again. Watson's plots are getting monotonous
now, with no character development or use of anyone apart from Buffy coming
up with a plan of escape. Hopefully the start of a story arc next
issue will improve things.
OVERALL
When
the art inside the comic is better than that on the cover, you finally
realise that Dark Horse have been listening to our complaints. Now
if only we could get a new writer onboard... Chris Golden are you free?
