\n<\/em><\/p>\n


\nLOS ANGELES, CA (December 5, 2018)\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 BOOM! Studios today unveiled a variant cover to\u00a0BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #3<\/strong>\u00a0by horror illustrator Scott Buoncristiano (Harry Potter: Magical Film Projections, Dead Rabbit<\/em>) featuring a tribute to the iconic television episode \u201cHush.\u201d The next chapter of the hotly-anticipated series will debut in-stores March 13th, 2019, in partnership with 20th Century Fox Consumer Products.<\/p>\n

The reimagining of Joss Whedon’s groundbreaking series reaches the penultimate chapter of the first arc as Buffy and the Scooby Gang (the name was Xander\u2019s idea, he\u2019s workshopping it, it probably won\u2019t stick) delve deeper into the heart of Sunnydale\u2019s underbelly\u2014and make a shocking discovery about the true nature of the Hellmouth. Meanwhile, Drusilla \u2013 AKA THE MISTRESS \u2013 sets her sights on Cordelia, as Cordy and Spike find accidental common ground.<\/p>\n

Welcome back to the Hellmouth as Eisner Award-nominated writer Jordie Bellaire (Redlands) and Russ Manning Award-winning artist Dan Mora (Klaus, Saban\u2019s Go Go Power Rangers<\/em>), along with series creator and story consultant Joss Whedon (the visionary writer\/director behind\u00a0Firefly<\/em>, Marvel\u2019s\u00a0The Avengers<\/em>, and more), reimagine the groundbreaking pop culture phenomenon from the very beginning.<\/p>\n

Buffy The Vampire Slayer<\/em>\u00a0premiered on the WB Network on March 10th, 1997. The Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated series, which ran for seven seasons from 1997-2003, stars Sarah Michelle Gellar as \u201cBuffy Summers.\u201d Chosen to battle vampires, demons and other forces of darkness, Buffy is aided by a Watcher who guides and teaches her as she surrounds herself with a circle of friends called the \u201cScooby Gang.\u201d<\/p>\n

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #3<\/strong>\u00a0features main covers by Mondo illustrator Matthew Taylor and fan favorite artist Kevin Wada (She-Hulk<\/em>), along with a variant cover by Matt Smith (Barbarian Lord<\/em>).<\/p>\n

\u201cSome episodes of\u00a0Buffy<\/em>\u00a0make you sad or happy or excited or maybe even terrified. But \u2018Hush\u2019 made you feel all of them at the same time and it\u2019s one of the reasons it remains a high watermark for storytelling,\u201d said Jeanine Schaefer, Executive Editor, BOOM! Studios. \u201cScott Buoncristiano\u2019s cover conjures up that emotional stake to the heart perfectly on this cover, as we continue our tribute the best episodes of Buffy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Studios\u2019 eponymous imprint, home to a world-class group of licensed comic book series and ambitious original series, including Joss Whedon\u2019s\u00a0Firefly<\/em>, Lev Grossman\u2019s\u00a0The Magicians<\/em>,\u00a0Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Planet of the Apes, Abbott, Mech Cadet Yu, Grass Kings<\/em>, and\u00a0Klaus<\/em>.<\/p>\n
