Review: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: No Future For You (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 8 #2)

 
Eisner award-winning writer Brian K. Vaughan (Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina) tackles Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight with "No Future for You." When a rogue debutant Slayer begins to use her power for evil, Giles is forced to recruit the rebellious Faith, who isn't exactly known for her good deeds. Giles offers Faith a clean slate if she can stop this snooty Slayer from wreaking total havoc - that is, if Buffy doesn't beat her to it. Georges Jeanty (The American Way) remains at the top of his game as series artist, and Whedon stays on as "Executive Producer" in this direct follow-up to Season Seven of the smash-hit TV series.

REVIEW

No Future For You, the fantastic sequel to The Long Way Home does not disapppoint. It's another return to the brilliant characters brought to life by Joss Whedon. The wittiness of the storyline & hilarity keeps you entertained. While the fast-paced action filled with magic is not bad either.

No Future For You is the return to Faith, a character to the series who is also a Slayer & has a frenemies relatioship with Buffy. Faith is a strong character that struggles with her past & bad decisions she made during her younger years. And we also see a darker side of Buffy when she struggles with her belief of Faith's recovery from the dark side.

No Future For You is a great story because we see not only external struggle for the characters, but internal as well. They are so many stories going on, Buffy's, Faith's, Dawns' & all interwoven into a magnificient story.

No Future For You should not be let pass, but read immediately, just like all of Buffy's comic.
