BUYING ADVISORY: MS – OPTIONAL; HS - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Warren is about to ascend and embody a demon, when a petite blond stranger interrupts and Jonathan ends up killing Warren instead of helping him. Turns out the stranger is a slayer from another dimension, there to take out as many Black Flames from as many dimensions as she can so that she can find her home dimension. Jonathan, Andrew, and Anya (who works at a “juice” bar with Andrew) won’t let Demondale vanish forever, so they recruit Angelus, Spike, Drucilla, and vampire Willow to help them find some way to defeat Buffy for good.
For fans of Buffy, they will love this look at the Buffyverse that weaves in many familiar episodes in different ways. I am just not sure how hot Buffy is for the MS/HS crowd. Probably the best I’ve read of the Buffy as it pays homage without twisting the series in weird ways.
