 You just gotta have Faith... June 6, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
No Future For You, the second collected volume in Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight, finds the return of one time rogue slayer Faith. At the request of Giles, Faith finds herself on a mission to infiltrate the world of a wealthy English slayer who is taking out other slayers, and has Buffy in her sights as well. What does this have to do with the new big bad called Twilight and the U.S. government's plans for Buffy and her crew? Writer Brian K. Vaughan, who has written such amazing comics including Y: The Last Man and Ex Machina, manages to wonderfully convey Whedon's penchant for snappy dialogue here, while returning artist Georges Jeanty provides more solid artwork as well. The last issue collected here, entitled "Anywhere But Here", is written by Whedon himself, and finds Buffy and Willow on a dizzying mystical trip and answers some questions, as well as plants the seeds for upcoming chaotic events. All in all, No Future For You is another spectacular volume in the new Buffy comic, and cheers to Brian K. Vaughan for picking up the torch and running forward full-throttle.

Didn't like the first issue of S8 that much, but this was awesome. Faith back, and the character done fairly well, though I would have preferred a little more bonding with the bad guy (girl) to show the development of the relationship. The final, out-of-arc story at the end was classic Whedon, lots of dream sequences etc well done. I really liked it!
Almost as good as if it were on DVD... June 17, 2008

Joss Whedon is the man. He's the best script-writer television has ever had, and in his own rights I feel he's the Shakespeare of our time (what with re-inventing the English language ad hoc).
If you loved Buffy, this is worth reading to continue where Season 7 left off. The characters stay in character, and talk the talk. My only complaint is that their images are not always exactly like the actors - but given my own artistic drawing talents, I'm not one to criticize.
Buy this, read it, love it.

Thisis the second part of the Buffy's eighth season, only released on comicbooks, and I think that eventhough it's on TV, it's still amazing! I want more... highly recommended!
Wonderful! June 23, 2008

Whedom continues to impress me with beautiful writing that tugs at my heartstrings and at the same time has me on the edge of my seat. The artwork is beautiful for a comic and captures moments in time that I thought could only be done on film. Both collections are well worth it to any fan of the series.
