May 24, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Boom! Studios kicks off a brand new story arc in next month’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer #5, which will deal with the fallout to the shocking events of the previous issue. Check out a first look preview here…

The reimagining of Joss Whedon’s groundbreaking hit series kicks off a brand new story arc as Team Slayer deals with the devastating consequences of Xander becoming a vampire. Buffy and the Scooby Gang have lost one of their own to Team Vamp…but what if there’s a way to get their friend back? The Slayer will walk the line between responsibility and rampage as she searches for anything that’ll bring back her friend, balancing her quest with her duties as the Slayer while trying not to lose anyone else in the process. What do you do when your entire purpose is killing vampires and your friend just turned into one?

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #5 is out in June 5th, priced $3.99.
