PLOT

A transfer student offers a new mystery for Buffy and company, especially when she starts hanging out with some of Sunnydale High's more badly behaved students. Not exactly sure what is going on, Buffy decides to investigate what they get up to after the school closes, but she's in for a shock as it's not homework they're doing, but dabbling in the Black Arts, and the transfer student may not be all she seems...

ART

An artist who is even better than Cliff Richards arrives on the BUFFY franchise, and luckily he'll be returning for #16 as well, as well as the ANGEL monthly series. Only complaint is Oz (yet again), but so far no artist has been able to draw him perfectly.

STORY

Thank God for Chris Golden!!! After the terrible mess which the Selke saga has become it's nice to see that the series is not dead yet, even after a year. While the story is over quite quickly, it's a fun read and the dialogue is great.

OVERALL

My favourite BUFFY issue in the regular series so far! I can't wait for the Angel series now, and this issue has convinced me to resubscribe to the BUFFY comic, although only half a year this time, which means you're stuck with my reviews 'til #19 and 12 issues of ANGEL too! BACK TO THE TOP

A NICE GIRL LIKE YOU
