There are plenty of moments in this issue to get fans incredibly excited, the expansion of the Scoobies allows for more complex storytelling, and it looks like two fan favourites are here to stay. The soulless vampire Xander storyline is intriguing and how it will play out feels very unpredictable. There are a few moments which are guaranteed to take readers by surprise as well. The art is good although in danger of feeling a little too cartoony for Buffy. Read Full Review

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #20 has a lot going on. At no point do all the disparate storylines feel out of place here though. Each new subplot informs on the major story. That makes for great storytelling. Readers are never bored and stay engaged. It may not be everyone's cup of tea to see this story unfold this way or to see this version of Faith. We have to remember, that this is part of a multiverse. The characters you know and love are out there somewhere. I would suggest to keep calm and slay on. Read Full Review

Not even Wesley "Head Boy" Wyndam-Pryce could save this one. There's just too much wrong here. It's genuinely upsetting to me as a fan of these characters, or at least what they once were. I'll keep reading, I guess. Maybe it'll get better.
