Fasinating! I love Buffy!
(More pictures on my blog)This is a huge artbook with the cover art that's printed on some shiny surface. Mine was scratched slightly, and I could see parts where the ink came off and the silver shine behind. The reproduction on the thick paper is great. It's 192 pages total.The book features art from the comics up to the Season 7. The illustrations are beautiful and printed big. I like the strong use of blacks for negative space which gives the art impact. In fact, I pretty much prefer the outl...
Scott Allie's commentary was interesting and felt very direct and honest. It was fascinating to realize that I recognize a lot of the artists and authors that worked on the comics from other things I've read recently. It as also interesting to get some validation on why I enjoyed some of these more than others - understanding what was going on in the background regarding artists dropping in and out, scheduling, and other issues that led to less than stellar efforts and also how some of the reall...
I read the Buffy Season 8 and 9 comics but I have never really been interested in the multitude of other Buffy comics out there. Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Panel to Panel is an art book that is an overview of the Buffy comics that were written while the show was still on. The concept art is really interesting as are the notes.
I'm Liking This Book ,But I'm Not Done So Hold On!
Maybe that’s just the nerd in me talking but I really like this book. It displays the best images from various Buffy (hmm, what’s the best way to describe them?) "graphic novels" i suppose? This book has good images in nice big glossy detail. Its funny though that sometimes the artists take creative licensing with how they draw Buffy both physically and facially and you have to just assume the blonde chick with the stake is Buffy cause other than that she bears no resemblance to Sarah Michelle G...
Love Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The show was really good. Has its flaws but still good. So when I heard about the comics I been catching up on that. Some of the arcs were good to okay. And the art style is the same where it can be good and times when it got weird. So with this book, its mostly the different art covers and it was interesting to see the different art styles and characters on the covers. If you like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, then you'll like this.
This book is really for fans of the old Buffy the Vampire Slayer comic series... it's a great compilation of art, covers and some interiors taken from the series. I jumped on the bandwagon very late in the series, so it was a great way for me to see what I'd missed since I've been buying the Buffy Omnibus collections. The book is done in an oversize format, which really allows the art to be presented in its full glory (unlike the strangely scaled down Omnibuses!). Accompanying the art is some gr...
Best moment: Three of the editors/artists are sitting at a cafe and Sarah Michelle Gellar walks by and sits two tables away. They deate if they should be all, hey, we draw comics of you and we actually have stuff here and COOL RIGHT? Scott, the main dude, shoots them down because he finds the whole thing terribly awkward. He then tells this story to Joss, who tells him they probably avoided getting charged for stalking. HA. There is not enough Giles in this book, but then again, there was only 1...
My sisters are huge fans of Buffy. I have seen a little of the show, but I am not a raving fan. I have not read any of the graphic novel/comic book adaptions of the show, so this art was all new to me. Some of it I liked and actually looked at for a few minutes, the rest was just okay. It just felt like a compilation, and they threw everything, and anything, in.
If you are a huge fan of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series published by Dark Horse comics from 1998 until recently when Buffy creator Joss Whedon took the reins of the series... this book will be an absolute treat. Artwork from those early Buffy comics is reproduced here at a large size with commentary from the editor involved with the series from the beginning. There's some nice stuff in here, especially the contributions from John Totleben. I can't help but wonder, is there a fan base for th...
Quick read great cover art.
Love the Graphics and sketches! Makes me wish for a Buffy comeback!
