BOOM! Studios today, in partnership with 20th Century Fox Consumer Products, unveiled three\u00a0BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #7<\/strong>covers by Mondo illustrator Marc Aspinall, artist Kevin Wada (She-Hulk<\/em>), and artist Sonia Liao (Kulipari<\/em>), available in August 2019.<\/p>\n

The Scoobies are in disarray, and after the huge sacrifices she made last issue, Willow is still grappling with the consequences of losing such a monumental piece of her life. Was the sacrifice worth it? Or does this spell the end for the Scooby Gang as Buffy\u2019s friends and family deal with the fallout from recent events and attempt to put the pieces of their lives back together?<\/p>\n

Eisner Award-nominated writer Jordie Bellaire (Redlands<\/em>) and acclaimed artist David L\u00f3pez (Captain Marvel<\/em>), along with series creator and story consultant Joss Whedon (the visionary writer\/director behind\u00a0Firefly<\/em>,\u00a0Marvel\u2019s The Avengers<\/em>, and more), reimagine the groundbreaking pop culture phenomenon for a new generation of comic book fans.<\/p>\n

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #7<\/strong>\u00a0features three main covers. Mondo illustrator Marc Aspinall depicts a desperate Willow using her fledgling magical abilities to try to save her best friend, Xander, from his vampire self. Fan favorite artist Kevin Wada spotlights Buffy\u2019s current crush, fellow Sunnydale student and captain of the track team, Robin Wood. And rising star artist Sonia Liao\u2019s Chosen One cover features a katana-wielding Slayer from 16th Century Japan.<\/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
