BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER FOR A NEW GENERATION!
Rori Lane is trying to start a new life when she reunites with her mother in Japan, but ancient creatures lurking in the shadows of Tokyo sense something hidden deep within her, threatening everything she holds dear. Can Rori unlock the secrets of her power before it’s too late? JIM ZUB (SKULLKICKERS, Samurai Jack), STEVE CUMMINGS (Legends of the Dark Knight, Deadshot), and JOHN RAUCH (INVINCIBLE) team up to create an all-new Image supernatural spectacle that combines the camaraderie and emotion of Buffy the Vampire Slayer with the action and mystery of Hellboy. Don’t miss it!
The current creator owned & fan girl love fests are going to collide with this property Wednesday.
The book has way too many covers, but quite frankly is just too good to ignore.
Strong exciting female protagonists & creator owned energy make this the book of the week.
I’m partial to the spiffy Phantom Variant that playfully nods to Saga & Sex Criminals.
It’s ALREADY sold out at the distributor level.
Seek it out.

  1. Yeah, I’m hoping to find this myself. Sold out online before I could nab one and none of my other shops had #1 on release. Luckily I think I just nabbed one from Midtown from Anthony’s heads up post he just made..

  2. The Phantom Variant had me at “Saga”. I felt the preview pages showed how top notch the art is and touches on the depth of the story that should follow.
