May 18 — A new figure will take up the mantle of vampire slayer this summer in Boom! Studios’ Buffy The Last Vampire Slayer #1.
Set for release in August (its exact release date is under consideration), the new series follows the events of the Buffy: The Last Vampire Slayer special. It finds Thessaly taking on the mantle of the vampire slayer. At the same time that she faces off against all sorts of dark forces, Thessaly, also has all the familiar issues facing a woman in her 20s — romance and balancing her job with her secondary responsibilities facing the forces of darkness.
Buffy The Last Vampire Slayer #1 was written by Casey Gilley (Star Wars Adventures, My Little Pony: Generations, You Died, Femme Magnifique). The issue’s main cover was designed by Ario Anindito (Star Wars: The High Republic). Its variant covers were designed by Susperia Vilchez (Vampirella Strikes) and Francesco Frankavilla (Night of the Ghoul).
Elizabeth Brei is the series’ editor.
