Wow, so. I haven't consumed anything Buffy in years, and I thought it would be neat to dip my toe back into the world with a fun What If type of story. This was probably not the best place to start. 

The idea itself is fun - Buffy is 50 years old, still alive and kicking in a climate-ravaged future where vampires are in the open, staking them is illegal, and most of her friends are dead. Suddenly, a young girl shows up claiming to be a new Slayer, and the story kicks off. 

Four issues was nowhere near enough for this story to make much sense. Everything about the main supposed plot rushed by so quickly that I still have no ideal idea why or how any of it was supposed to make sense. The only thing that this possibly had going for it was to play on Buffy fan nostalgia, but even that felt empty and off. 

This wasn't entirely terrible, and I did enjoy some moments that revealed what happened to the various Scoobies. I even teared up a bit toward the end. The art was neat, though kind of hard to follow at times - especially in the big fight scenes. Too much going on, not enough clarity. Outside of the fight scenes, the art was pretty good. 

So, probably not the best thing to check out after years of not consuming a Buffy story, but not entirely terrible, either. The overall story was a good idea, but the execution was sorely lacking.
