LOS ANGELES, CA (December 6, 2018)\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 BOOM! Studios today unveiled the main cover to\u00a0BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #3<\/strong>\u00a0by acclaimed Mondo illustrator Matthew Taylor featuring Cordelia Chase and the terror known as Spike! The next chapter of the hotly-anticipated series will debut in-stores March\u00a02019, 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<\/em>) 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,\u00a0<\/em>and more), reimagine the groundbreaking pop culture phenomenon from the very beginning.<\/p>\n

Buffy The Vampire Slayer\u00a0<\/em>premiered 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 Kevin Wada (She-Hulk<\/em>) and Matt Smith (Barbarian Lord<\/em>), along with a variant cover by horror illustrator Scott Buoncristiano (Dead Rabbit<\/em>).<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you think you know the story of Buffy Summers, think again \u2013 not only will her relationship to Spike and Drusilla be fundamentally different than we\u2019ve ever seen before, but it\u2019ll affect all her closest friends (and, if the kids still say this, her frenemies) in different ways,\u201d said Jeanine Schaefer, Executive Editor, BOOM! Studios. \u201cMatthew Taylor\u2019s cover hints at the danger that\u2019s literally lurking around every corner, and sets the stage for an explosive final chapter of this first arc that no one \u2013 seriously, no one \u2013 could ever guess.\u201d<\/p>\n

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER<\/strong>\u00a0is the latest release from BOOM! 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
