Welcome to the Party

This trade paperback includes the stories from issues 4 through 7 of the BTVS comic series. This firmly cements the tradition of reissuing the comic stories under paperback cover with better quality paper, sometimes including an extra tale or art feature added in. This may seem mercenary, but it is a way for people who do not have access to the comics to keep up with another source of Buffy stories.On the whole, the comic tales are well written and illustrated, and these are no exception. They do focus more on feminine pulchritude though, in the stylized fashion typical of comic illustration. The artwork in this issue is all done by Hector Gomez and Sandu Florea. While the work is good, the characters are a bit too stylized compared to the actual actors. I prefer Cliff Richards and Joe Pimentel, or Joe Bennett and Rick KetchamWhite Christmas - When Buffy finds herself without the resources to buy a new dress for the Christmas dance she overrides Giles misgivings and gets a job at the Popsicle Parlor. Little did she know that the owner has found an entirely new way to chill out.Happy New Year - Giles is more than perturbed when he discovers that the latest costumer for the school library is a hellhound bent on evening out an old score. Buffy steps in and nearly loses Willow.New Kid on the Block - Buffy has a new friend - Cynthia. They hatch the idea for an all out slumber party that turns severely spooky when the pizza delivery tried to eat the party.As always the trade paperbacks are all art and action, but they retain the basic human values of the show. The lack of superhero pomposity is one of the endearing things about the entire Buffy tradition. So order a pizza and settle in for a fun evening's reading.

Nothing too spectacular but still worthwhile

The first issue in this trade is "White Christmas" -- the previous trade (Remaining Sunlight) collected issues 1-3 that had a Halloween issue and a Thanksgiving issue to the logical next step is a Christmas issue in this trade collecting issues 4-7 of the ongoing series. :) Buffy gets a job at the mall at an ice cream stand but as usual luck would have it that the owner of the stand is a crazy guy who doesn't like franchise work so he summons an elemental ice demon. Angel makes an appearance in this issue. The characters don't really look like they should, but it gets the story across. Then we have "Happy New Year" where Willow is in a bad mood about Buffy brining Oz the escapee werewolf home using force. Lastly is "New Kid on the Block" Parts one and two where the new girl, who is not what she seems, plans a slumber party. Chaos, of course, ensues. In the intro pages of the trade there are some adorable sketches of a cartoony buffy, giles, etc. which was my favorite aspect of this trade. Not the best plot but it has its good moments of dialogue.

Buffy Kicks

this is a great comic book, i collect buffy comics and this one is one of the best, it gives the best descriptions of the "uninvited guests" and its amazing how buffy can fight anything.

gotta love buffy

I liked this graphic novel. No matter what form: books, videos, tv, or comics buffy is always entertaining. If you love comics you'll love these. Lots of fun.
