New Slayers make their first appearance in Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Chosen Ones

May 22, 2019 by Gary Collinson

Boom! Studios has announced the upcoming one-shot Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Chosen Ones, which is set to explore the first full appearances of Slayers from past eras, as seen on special variant covers to the new Buffy the Vampire Slayer ongoing series.

“Buffy might be the Slayer you know best, but she’s not the only incredible woman to be a Chosen One—and you’re getting the first appearance of three new Slayers in this issue, as well as the never-before-seen origins of the Sunnydale Hellmouth!” said Jeanine Schaefer, Executive Editor, BOOM! Studios. “Mairghread, Ornella, Celia, and Alexa dig into the secret origins of these important characters from the past who’ll have a huge impact on Buffy’s future!”

In 18th century California, a young woman discovers she’s the Chosen One and changes the course of Slayer history forever, in a new story from writer Mairghread Scott (Batgirl) and artist Ornella Savarese, that also reveals the hidden origins of the Hellmouth; the new Slayer first seen on the cover to BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #2 comes to life in 14th century Italy from writer and artist Celia Lowenthal (Over The Garden Wall: Hollow Town), and more.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Chosen Ones is set for release on August 28th 2019 exclusively in local comic book shops.
