REVIEW: Buffy The Vampire Slayer – Season 9 #15

Or – “Will There Be A Season 10?”

When Dark Horse announced the debut of Buffy Season 9 a couple of years ago, I wasn’t entirely sure that I was interested.  Season 8 had some serious narrative and editorial drift, and kind of fell apart 3/4 of the way through before managing to barely get itself together in the end, and the end of all magic left Season 9 in a weird position, given that most of the cast either used magic or came from magical origins in the first place.  After a bit of controversy early on, Season 9 has settled into a weird groove and seems to be working towards something bigger.  Is this the issue that turns the whole season into a crowning moment of awesome?  Your Major Spoilers review awaits!

Posted on by

In this issue: Put away the Halloween candy, there’s still one more horror story to tell, as Matthew and Stephen give you the rundown on Vampirella vs. Fluffy One-Shot that was released October 31, 2012.

THE (sorta) CROSSOVER YOU’VE BEEN (kinda) DEMANDING!
Young, horny high school couples are being horribly mutilated by demonic Puritans. Time for Fluffy to take a study break and kick some supernatural ass! Meanwhile, Fluffy’s pals are wagging their tongues at the hot new substitute teacher – Vampirella. When the iconic vampire and the teenage warrior face off, the clash is more epic than stripes and polka dots! Vampi continues to tear her way through pop-culture vampirism in dark, brutal – and cathartic –satire from writer Mark Rahner (Vampirella Annual #2, Rotten).

Or – “Can She Really Hold Down A Day Job?”

After her recent pregnancy-that-turned-out-to-be-a-robot-body scare, Buffy Summers has quit her dead-end gig as a barista to take on a more challenging career.  Given her job history, though, I’m not entirely convinced that she’s ready for the job market.  Your Major Spoilers review awaits!

TOP 10: Adaptations I Like Better Than The Source Material

Or – “Goin’ Rogue, Over Here…”

For the last few weeks, at the end of our Tuesday recording session for the Major Spoilers Podcast, Stephen has rather pointedly asked me, “You gonna do an editorial this week?”  I always answer him the same way I answer my day job boss when he asks if my team will lower their AHT, or when Deon at Gatekeeper Hobbies (Huntoon & Gage, Topeka!) asks if I’ve remembered my timesheet this week:  “Sure, that won’t be a problem…”  With the advent of Top 5, it’s been a while since we’ve done one of these, but this week’s Walking Dead finale led my wife to tell me that she liked the show better than the comic.  I don’t fully agree with that assessment (they’re completely different reading/viewing experiences, for one thing) but it did make me think about a few of the more successful adaptations I’ve ever experienced. In a few rare cases, the adaptation becomes more entertaining that the wellspring from which it emerged…
