Tales of the Slayers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer Comic #1)
Author: Joss Whedon
Desc: Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the latest in a long tradition of young women who've been trained to give their lives in the war against vampires. We've gotten glimpses of these other women over the years on T.V. in comics and in books. Now for the first time the writers from the television series including the show's creator Joss Whedon and one of its stars Amber "Tara" Benson present the tales of these girls with the help of comics' greatest artists. Gene Colan co-creator of Marvel's Blade and Tomb of Dracula returns to Dark Horse for the story of a young girl in 1970s New York battling vampires. Tim Sale artist of recent epics Batman: The Long Halloween and Superman for All Seasons teams with Joss Whedon for a grim tale of a medieval slayer. American comics legend P. Craig Russell (Dr. Strange The Ring of the Nibelung) and international rising star Mira Friedmann (Actus Tragicus) also join the stellar lineup.
