I Suck At Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Eight

with the recent marathon viewing of the world's best tv show ever (buffy the vampire slayer) that my friends (marc and kelley), karen and i are taking part of, i decided to investigate the comic book aspect of the show.

the comic book is called buffy the vampire slayer season eight. now, i suck at buffy the vampire slayer season eight because i have never read any of comic books. i don't even know what the premise is... until now.

according to my friend wikipedia,

"Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight is a comic book series published by Dark Horse Comics. The series serves as a canonical continuation of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and follows the events of that show's final televised season. It is produced by Joss Whedon, who wrote the first arc, "The Long Way Home". The first issue was released on March 14, 2007."

(pictured below is the cover of the comic book.)


anyway, i was able to read the first issue of the comic book today... thanks cbr file!

for anyone curious, there are these files called comic book archive files (also known as comic book reader files) which are a type of compressed archive file that sequentially display images... like comic books.

needless to say, all you need is a reader to read the compressed file... and voila! instant comic book! awesome! yes... i'm a dork who get easily excited over things like that. but i must say... the first issue so far of buffy season 8... pretty cool! i can't wait to read more...
