I liked this back story because I've heard that Joss didn't like the way the movie was done so now it's a little more.... his story. ( )

This graphic novel is said to be a truer version of Joss' script for the Buffy movie than what ended up being made. It is a darker, less comic tale than the film and so much better. People should just let Joss do what he does and not try to make him more "marketable." ( )

Graphic novel that tells the ‘backstory’ of how Buffy came to be the Slayer—the story at her previous school/town before she came to Sunnydale. I hadn’t realized when I wishlisted this at PBS that it was indeed a graphic novel so was a little surprised when I got it, and obviously it was a very quick read. It was entertaining and a good read for what it was, but not something I’ll order more from in the series. ( )

This is a graphic novel version of the movie (sort of)--it uses the tv Buffyverse and the movie story to bring Buffy to Sunnydale right before the series began--make sense? ( )
