This week, Dark Horse announced two new miniseries that will spin out of Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season Nine.
First up is a Spike series, written by Victor Gischler (X-Men, Deadpool: Merc with a Mouth) and drawn by Paul Lee (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Devil’s Footprints), The premise of the series is that Spike ventures off world in his bug ship in order to get away from some personal frustration on terra firma, and winds up sucked into a demonic plot to take advantage of the absence of magic on earth.
"What I love about working with Dark Horse on Buffy-related material is that they take great care to capture the feel of the characters and stories from the television show, of which I was a huge fan. Getting my hands on the characters I’ve loved so much over the years is a dream come true," said Gischler.
November 2012 will see the release of a new Willow miniseries, written by Jeff Parker (Thunderbolts, Agents of Atlas) and drawn by Brian Ching (Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Witchblade). This series will delve into the witch’s obsessive journey to recover her magic. Willow is on a quest to bring magic back to the world, and she’ll do anything to make it happen, including forming some unhealthy alliances after cracking the code to travel to other dimensions—something thought impossible since the destruction of the Seed.
Spike #1 will be on sale August 22, 2012, and Willow #1 will be arriving on November 21, 2012. For more updates, stay tuned to www.darkhorse.com.
