It's 1933, and Spike and Dru, our favorite vampire duo, are at the World's Fair to have a little fun and maybe eat some tourists. But there's always someone who wants to rain on their parade—like the deadly vampire hunters who are a tad angry at Spike for killing their ancestor, a girl who just happened to be a Slayer—or the chaos wizard who's using his scientific display as a front for his attempts to call forth the Elder Gods and end the world! Another twisted tale of vampire love from writer Christopher Golden (Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Watcher's Guide) and artist Ryan Sook (Buffy, Superman), the creative team responsible for Spike and Dru's previous Dark Horse adventures.
This digital publication was originally published as Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Spike and Dru #3, in December 2000. It is collected in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus Volume 1.
WrensReads Review:
Welcome to some stories from the Buffyverse!
If you don’t personally know me, then you probably didn’t know that I am kind of obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer and everything involved there (including Angel). I have a claddagh ring of my own (also for my Irish heritage, but still) and I own the series on DVD.
Then I heard there were some comics?!
I lost it, because I heard it was a continuation from the series. I guess this isn’t that continuation, because this first issue was all about Drusilla and Spike, which I wasn’t not happy about.
I guess the “Buffy Classics” are more short stories here and there about certain things left open to the interpretation from the show.
This certain issue tells you about a repercussion from killing The Slayer from Beijing, China. They got themselves in a little bit of a pickle, but these two do love their chaos.
The art was pretty good. I was a little disappointed the vamp-face wasn’t more obvious (because let’s be honest, that face is disgusting and you know the difference from their human face to their vamp face). For a 35 page story, I would say it was pretty good. Could have been better, but I just loved diving back into this world.
Till next time,
