Much more entertaining than the first volume in the series, primarily because it was clearly focused on Faith and Giles and had some resonance with their past stories. That is, the willingness to kill humans instead of demons, if necessary, and the shared going-off-the-rails-when-young bit. These two have a lot in common and this was never explored the way it might have been in the series, with the show writers preferring to mirror Faith with Buffy instead of her mentor. I'd honestly have given this four stars if it weren't ended with the boring final comic, which gets away from this new interesting duo and has Buffy and Willow in some weird fantasy dimension. I didn't care in the slightest, and I think this book would have been stronger if it had collected the first four comics only, and left the final for another volume. All its addition does is dilute the previous character study.
