In a bold move to give disenfranchised Slayers a meaningful societal role (with pay), Kennedy recruits Buffy to act as bodyguard for high-profile clientele. But unlike the other recruits, Buffy struggles to abandon her Slaying instincts and looks for demony threats where none lie (much to Kennedy's dismay). So it's only natural that her first job is to protect a tech mogul who just so happens to be running from demon assassins! Collects Buffy Season 9 #11–#15.

WrensReads Review:

I wish I would have documented it, but when like “the magic” was taken from the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer I was like “all these girls can get high-paying jobs as body guards now” and behold, that is what Kennedy thought too!

So, with no heed to the other slayers thoughts, Kennedy hires Buffy. Buffy struggles with not taking the lead and taking orders instead. This whole thing is a big eye-opener for Buffy and I just want her to catch a break. She is still going when most people would have given up, and I love her for that. *acts like Buffy is a real life person and looks up to her as a role model*

And there’s some demon that’s so large that we never see the full of it and just its tentacles. Can we all say ew?

Anyway, the last few issues kind of spins off to some dudes and I wasn’t really into it but Buffy came back in the end and it might play a part in the rest of the series? Who knows with graphic novels.

While Buffy hits the streets of San Francisco alone, Spike and Slayer combat the increasing zompire population, help a misguided friend, and become confidants when Slayer has to make a major life decision.

WrensReads Review:

I thought this volume was actually pretty deep but also super weird.

And also, hasn’t Buffybot been done? But it isn’t really just a Buffybot… it’s like… I don’t know how to explain it without giving everything away. But this really kind of hurt my soul because Buffy never catches a break. She’s always doing everything she can but it is never enough…

I’m just… going to go over there… and cry… for Buffy…

On the bright side, we see some familiar faces:

Season 8 ended with a bang that cut the world off from magic culminating in another set of world-ending problems. Buffy has left her best friend, Willow, powerless, and brought an end to a millennia-long tradition of superpowered girls. By day, Buffy is a twenty-something waitress with no real direction, and even though magic is gone, she ís still a vampire Slayer by night. Bigger problem? Vampires are becoming an epidemic . . . of zompires! Collects Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 #1 - #5. * Written by series creator Joss Whedon and Andrew Chambliss of ABC's One Upon a Time! Buffy Season 9 begins!

WrensReads Review:

I’m sorry can we just TAKE A MOMENT FOR THE LAST WINDOW? HOW DID PEOPLE WAIT FOR THE NEXT VOLUME WITH THAT KIND OF AN ENDING?

Oh. My. Word.

Buffy is not ready for that. No one is ready for—

WAIT WHO IS THE –

I CAN NOT I ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT.

Ugh. Grr. Let me bring myself in.

We see The First again.

The world is without magic and everyone blames Buffy because, well, she kind of made it that way. And now vampires are more animalistic than human looking and acting.

And then someone betrayed her?

Oh and there’s someone who can kill vampires without like dusting them? I’m not sure, but something huge is about to happen and I am ready for it.
